Man of tomorrow: Broken Frontier talks to Jim Lee about Superman, Batman: Hush, and the differences between Jeph Loeb and Brian Azzarello:
"Both are great writers to work with. Jeph stages things more elaborately, very cinematically. Brian has a lot of the tension come through dialogue, through silent beats. I’m drawing a lot more shots where the camera is cutting back and forth between the characters or holding still on one character while he ‘acts’ out his lines. They both have a flair for the dramatic though and I consider them both not only to be some of the top writers in the field today but also good buds."
Lee also tries to put at least one rumor to rest:
Broken Frontier: "Rumor has it that the three Superman books will have separate continuities before coming to a head at the end of 2004, with the three Supermen squaring off against each other. Is there any truth to that gossip?"
Jim Lee: "I have no idea how this rumor got started but it’s a funny one. No truth to it at all. Every element of the rumor is incorrect. There will be three different Superman titles, each handling a different aspect of Superman, not always set in the same time period, but it is all about the one and only Superman."
