    Creator spotlight: Christian Ward on Batman: City of Madness and more

    Batman: City of Madness Interview:

    1. Batman: City of Madness is epic in a lot of ways and visually stunning. What’s the basic premise when it comes to your take on Batman?
    2. There are a few plots simmering in the first issue, with Two-Face, Alfred, and The Court of Owls…and more, what has been the most fun developing?
    3. Talk to us about the importance of Morrison & McKean’s Arkham Asylum in this story and your own life!
    4. I love the visual representation of Harvey/TF, from imagery to lettering. Take us through your process of creating this take on the character.
    5. Like many Lovecraft stories, this one is told partly thru letters. Was that part of the structure from the beginning?
    6. With fans picking this up in just a few days, was there a particular page or panel that you spent extra time on getting right?
    7. As a cosmic horror, what are some of your favorite cosmic horror stories?
    8. The color choices are compelling, with blues, reds, and purples. Were you after a certain visual story through color?
    9. It appears Batman is sporting purple in his costume like in the old days, what approach did you take with designing a new suit and do you have a favorite of his many suits?
    10. If Batman: City of Madness were a song, what would it be and why?
