Je pense que Lee n’avait pas prévu/ne pouvait pas faire plus de neuf numéros, mais je pensais 1) que Snyder resterait plus longtemps 2) que la série continuerait quand même. Là, Jim Lee a eu sa maxi-série, on est loin de « l’événement » qui entourait son passage sur Batman et Superman.
[quote=« Scott Snyder »] « I don’t want to give too much away, » he said with a laugh, "but I think you’ll find Luthor and Jimmy and Perry and Lois have very, very interesting positions in the story, coming up. I’m really proud of how they all come out, in the story. They all have a very pivotal role to play, coming up.
« You’ll also see how Batman and Wonder Woman come into play, and the Justice League, » Snyder said. « You’re going to start to see the cast expand as things get crazier and crazier. »[/quote]

[quote]No, it’s what I wanted it to be at least – that you realize all these different people, aside from Lois, really, have visions of what you are supposed to do if you are Superman that are monolithic. « You’re supposed to do this, you’re supposed to do that, in doing what you’re doing don’t you see that you’re doomed and you make no sense? You’re Clark Kent and everyone around you is going to age faster, or you’re Superman but you don’t align yourself with any one country or ideology, and in doing so you’re going to turn everyone against you. So all of those things are stupid and you should do it this way! »
Instead what you realize is that Superman doesn’t have a way he does it. He doesn’t think of Superman as something he made to inspire people the way they’re talking about, how Superman « should » mean this or that. What I’m trying to say about Superman, and I think what he reaffirms in this issue, is that Superman doesn’t mean anything to Clark in terms of being a beacon to people. He’s not trying to show us the right way to be, he’s trying to live life the way anyone does: day-by-day, situation-by-situation. He doesn’t presume to know the right thing for anyone else but himself and he makes it up as he goes along with the strongest moral compass he can follow. [/quote]
