Interview with writer Ed Brisson 

1. Thanks for being on the AIPT Comics podcast, to start, you’ve been very busy with Deathstroke, and Predator, and There’s something wrong with Patrick Todd! How long has this wealth of different kinds of stories been in the works?
2. How has the fan response been for Predator? How great is it to get this out after the delay?
3. The Predator’s cinematic adventures have so far taken place in the present and the past. Was it always the plan to take your series to the future?
4. One of the fun things about the Predators is that we still know so little about them. Was that ambiguity something you loved playing with from your main character’s POV?
5. Batman Inc. drops Ghost-Maker into a detective story! How does Ghost-Maker approach a mystery differently from Batman?
6. With Deathstroke Inc. was there any trepidation in going with the “Year One” moniker? 
7. Was there a challenge in pulling back some of Slade’s ability and giving us a greener Deathstroke?
8. I’ve enjoyed the pacing of There’s Something Wrong with Patrick todd, especially that opening page to issue one. What went into crafting this superhero tale that feels inverted, as if the powers are not at the surface of the story?
   1. I gotta ask, was this always the title for this book? Whenever I see a long title I think “The SEO!”
9. When working with so many different artists with different skills, do you find the writing process different?
10. You’re writing so many characters now, and have written so many characters like fan-favorite Glob, at this moment in time do you have a favorite?
11. Ed you’re a busy guy, do you have other projects you’d like to talk about today?
