Interview: Radiant Black Kyle Higgins, Ryan Parrott - FOC on Radiant Black 31 (Feb 3), which kicks off the "Rebuild" era of the Massive-Verse-- new jumping on points for Radiant Black and Rogue Sun (Rogue Sun #25 FOC February 17), etc. 

1. For both: The Massive-Verse has grown into a universe full of interconnected stories. What inspired the decision to begin this new "Rebuild" era, why now? 
2. How do Radiant Black #31 and Rogue Sun #25 serve as jumping-on points for new readers?
3. For Kyle (Radiant Black): With Marshall now fully stepping into the role of Radiant Black post-Catalyst War, what unique challenges will he face, both as a hero and as a person, in this new chapter?
4. For Ryan (Rogue Sun): Aurie’s sudden emergence as a second Rogue Sun in issue #25 raises plenty of questions. Can you tease a bit about her background and how her relationship with Dylan will evolve?
5. Why didn’t you renumber with #1 issues?
6. For both: The theme of legacy plays a big role in both Rogue Sun and Radiant Black. How does the idea of who "deserves" to be a hero shape the stories you’re telling in this new era?
7. Massive-verse movie I Am No/One update? 
8. Fun question: If Marshall and Dylan were forced to swap cities — Marshall in New Orleans and Dylan in Chicago — who would handle the switch better, and which city’s villains would give them the most trouble?
9. Kyle I’d be remiss not to ask: Spider-Verse vs. Venomverse, anything you can tease?
