Q: What would you say defines the character you are working on?
GJ: Surprisingly, there's always more stories to come from these characters--that's what makes them great. GJ: I'm inspired by anything that I connect to emotionally and, in the case of super heroes, that I cheer for. Q: How are you balancing making these stories and characters feel fresh and new while still respecting what came before? Q: What would you say is the difference in approach between writing and dialoguing the characters of The New 52 versus their previous incarnations? GJ: Their central concept, which is an emotionally driven one. I'm surprised by how many super heroes seem to lack believable motivation and, in comics, are often ill-defined. What does the character want? And how does that relate to the bigger story at hand? And how can I connect to that? That's what defines the character for me. Their powers, worlds and enemies should all be an extension of that. Q: What stories or creators inspire you most when working on your character? Q: With over 75 years of stories, is it difficult discovering new ideas and places for these characters to go that haven't already been done? GJ: That's up to the audience to decide. Sinestro Corps became one because it connected with so many readers. GJ: You always want to remain true to the core essentials of the characters that have made them connect with generation after generation, but at the same time you want to take chances. You want to do something that hasn't been done. For me personally, I want to explore mythologies and villains and new elements that are introduced alongside the world's famous characters. GJ: I don't want anything to be taken for granted. I don't want the Justice League to be the worked-together-and-friends-for-life characters that they've been. So approaching them in a different way, as people first and heroes second, is what I've been doing. Q: Jim, what's it like working together with Geoff on Justice League? What about his writing do you think compliments your art? JL: Geoff's energy jumps off the script and while he's known for his in-depth history of the rich DC Universe, it's his focus on character and the interpersonal quirks that really make it fun working on DC's trademark superteam. I get a big kick out of drawing their first interactions and more human aspects on the page, including a sense of humor and fun amidst this amazing roller-coaster ride of explosions, derring-do and heroics.
