The storm just keeps on swirling with this weeks release of Batman and Robin. This time Wizard have spoken with Frank Quitely on his artwork on the new series with Grant Morrison...

Wizard: You've been working with Grant on All Star Superman for the past two years. What made you want to continue on with Batman & Robin? Had you wanted to draw more Batman?

FRANK QUITELY: It was just something that happened kind of naturally. I was working on All Star and really enjoying it, and I had already started thinking about what to do next. As usual, Grant said, "If you're looking for something to do, I'll give you a few things to choose from." And I actually spoke to quite a few different people at a few different companies because I didn't know what I was going to do after All Star Superman, and the thing about doing a few covers for All Star Batman & Robin, that was just a chance. It was quite coincidental, quite unrelated. The fact that I ended up doing Batman & Robin–I don't know, maybe it put me in the mood. It just so happened that while I was looking at the various different things I could be doing and the various companies I could work for, I don't know what happened, but I ended up doing character designs. And the next thing that happened, I was looking at all the rest of it. [Laughs] As usual, once I get started on it, there was no looking back. The opening arc is three issues. I'm doing that, and then it's something involving the Joker after that.
