    I am glad he sees and knows the huge differences between the Batman and Superman tones. I hear a lot of people worried that Scott is going to make Superman dark but I don't believe that's going to be the case. This will still be a challenge to Scott considering his tones and atmosphere for his previous works. Lee on the other hand is going to knock the ball out of the park. There is no doubt in my mind that Lee will do nothing less of an excellent job.

    I think Jim should draw Wonder Woman in a second title before he starts another Superman run. . . . :)

    @Icon: Nice interview. I was sceptical about Snyder writing Superman but he won me over with his official announcement and subsequent interviews. Snyder knows the character and isn't going to do his usual dark twisted stuff with Superman. But his plans still make it sound like he knows what to do with Superman.

    @Lvenger: Yes, overall I was impressed with what Snyder had to say. What I got out of this interview is that he understands who Superman is; his sense of responsibility and restraint (i.e. why Superman holds back so often), his loneliness and isolation, that Superman is inspired by humanity and not just here to inspire us, and the toughness or boldness of Superman, that he just won't ever give up. That makes me think he will write the character well, so I'm excited. And I know Lee's art will kick ass.

    Nope Buffy did, and yet again the world won't remember a thing of her struggles to thwart the apocalypse.

    @Icon: Agreed on all counts. I can't wait for his new series! I'm thinking it'll be released to coincide with Man of Steel fever in June/July.
