Joe Casey, version 1.0: Variety.com's Bags and Boards has the first installment of a two-part interview with Wildcats and Automatic Kafka writer Joe Casey:

"Basically, I just like writing characters with as much depth as I can squeeze into them. Wildcats was rich with diverse characters, both old and new, that I really enjoyed exploring. They were unpredictable in their actions, as well as unpredictable in their relationships with each other. That was what I really got off on as a writer and I think a lot of our readers did, too. More than once, someone would comment on how they could never predict what was going to happen next. How many superhero titles can you really say that about? It was also a series where I could subvert a lot of the inherent clichés of superhero comicbooks. Why else would I put the prototypical gun-toting badass of the cast in a wheelchair for two years or put the 'Superman' character in a business suit in a corporate high-rise office and make him more of a visionary speech-maker rather than an action star?"
