What inspired this approach, and what does it reveal about Wally's character?Jeff, you've tackled deeply personal, introspective stories before. How does Absolute Flash balance superhero spectacle with the kind of emotional storytelling you're known for?Nick, this series presents a unique visual challenge since Wally doesn't have the Speed Force in the usual sense. How did you approach illustrating motion, speed, and kinetic energy differently?The father-son dynamic seems central to the story. What can you tell us about the relationship between Wally and his father, and how it shapes the narrative?The Absolute line lets creators tell more standalone, auteur-driven superhero stories. What freedom did that give you in shaping this take on Wally West?Wally is often portrayed as an optimist. Without his usual safety nets, how does his personality shift in this story? Can you tease anything about the “nefarious forces” chasing Wally? Are these familiar faces from Flash lore, or entirely new threats?Favorite rogues?What do you hope Absolute Flash adds to Wally West's legacy as a character?With Absolute Flash, Absolute Wonder Woman, and Absolute Batman all reimagining these heroes in bold new ways, if Wally had to team up with the Absolute versions of Diana and Bruce, what would their dynamic be like? Who's the most intimidating, and who's the most likely to crack a joke?

Holtham teams with Michael Lee Harris talk Motherfu*kin Monsters One-Shot (The Horizon Experiment) - Out December 18, 2024!J, Michael, thanks for joining us on the AIPT comics podcast! Thematically, what inspired the blend of comedic and horror elements in this story, and how do these genres enhance the narrative?We've had Pornsak on, Michael Walsh, and each time I'm curious, how did you guys get in on this exciting project of one-shots?How was your collaboration with Pornsak?The Horizon Experiment introduces complex characters dealing with extraordinary circumstances—how did you approach balancing humanity with the monstrous elements of the plot?Can you share your creative process for developing the visual tone of the comic, and how the artwork complements the story's darker, chaotic themes?The concept of 'monsters' often carries deeper metaphorical weight—what underlying social or personal themes did you aim to explore through this one-shot?Take us through your collaborative process? For instance, what do the action beats look like in a script vs the page?Michael, a lot of the art has an almost fish-eye lens, what was your goal in that approach?Were there any monsters or villains you didn't get to put in here that you've got sketched out?J, you probably get this all the time, but with a few comics series now under your belt, do you approach writing comics differently than with TV?How far out have you planned future chapters?What comics are you currently reading?

Marvel's plans for Star Wars when The Battle of Jakku maxi-series concludes in January. We're hopeful that more details about what's to come will be doled out in the coming weeks.
