Interview: Mark Waid  launching on April 16 with Batman/Superman: World’s Finest #38

  1. We Are Yesterday is the first event under DC’s All In initiative. What does that initiative mean for readers, and how did it shape your approach to this story?
  2. Gorilla Grodd has always been a heavy hitter, but I get the feeling this story is aiming to show us how much more threatening he can be, is that a goal to raise him up or am I off base?
  3. The death of Darkseid looms in the background of the first issue. Without giving too much away, how central is that mystery to the larger narrative?
  4. Justice League Unlimited #6 introduces a lineup of major villains like Lex Luthor and The Joker. How did you approach reintroducing the legion of doom, and what does that twist open up for future stories?
  5. This event stretches across multiple titles—how did you collaborate with Christopher Cantwell and Morgan Hampton to keep the tone and continuity consistent?
  6. Superman and Grodd trading bodies is such a wild twist. What drew you to explore that kind of role reversal, and how did it challenge your take on Superman?
  7. John Stewart makes his World’s Finest debut during the event. What made now the right time to bring him into this corner of the DC Universe?
  8. (Fun question!) If you had Gorilla Grodd’s psychic powers for a day, what would you use them for—and would it be heroic or villainous?
