GKO: MADHOUSE
Here you will find our rambalings on all area's of Batman, interviews and speical features!
Newsarama: Judd, Superman/Batman #76 falls within continuity, but a while ago. How did this issue come about?
Judd Winick: I was originally going to do a story arc in Superman/Batman. The editor and I had talked about it, and this was supposed to be the prologue to the whole story. But in a boring, "how-the-sausage-is-made" story, when everything went digital with Generation Lost, we lost about a month, deadline-wise. So I suddenly didn't have a whole lot of time. My lead-time just evaporated. So my Superman/Batman run had to be scrapped for a while.
But... I was already into doing this prologue. And this was something I felt like we really needed to address, which is Superman's reaction to Batman's death.
Nrama: It's hard to believe nobody's done that. Did you guys go back and check?
Winick: We did! We asked the Bat-group, the Superman-group, and nobody actually did the moment... or moments... where Superman is processing the death of Bruce Wayne, which seemed really intriguing to me.
So that's what this is. It's a very, very character-driven story where Superman, Clark Kent, is dealing with the loss of one of his closest friends and allies. And how he feels about Dick Grayson now becoming Batman. All these things get thrown into the mix.
I'm very pleased with it. It's a wonderfully heart-wrenching story.
