Remender continue de retrouver plein de trucs dans ses tiroirs :
« Back at the old HD. Going into my DC folder, here are some pitches that I was asked to do in 2006-07 for Wonder Woman, Nemesis, and The Great Ten. Declined. »
« Here is a declined DC pitch from 2008 for a Sea Devils revival that would see Aquaman lead them. »
« Here’s a DC JLA story I pitched in 2007. Declined. »
« Cracking open the Avengers folder. I was going to take over the Avengers after Secret Wars but left to go work on X-Men. Rage of Ultron was setting up my Avengers stuff. »
« My initial pitch for Uncanny Avengers line up. Also wanted Doctor Voodoo from the mini series we’d recently done but he’d been killed. »
« Once told what cast we could have I did up this team costume approach for Uncanny Avengers. Wanted them all in red and black versions of their outfits. Was declined. The exact idea was used in another book soon after. Probably a coincidence »
« In 2002, dead broke, after I wrapped work on Avengers, I went to DC comics to pitch this exact idea. The editor scoffed, turned to an artist pal next to me, and said, “is this an inker pitching ME a story?” I left, got a bit drunk, and met my future wife. »
« Good for a laugh. Notes for my first DC pitch from 2002. Had all the henchmen of Gotham turned into zombies. I tricked Dan Brereton into agreeing to paint it. Pitched in person. Was made fun of by the editor. Went out that night. Got drunk. Met wife. The end. »
« Art by the brilliant Bret Blevins from our scrapped 2008 Legion of the Supernatural book. Still makes me sad »
