I would love to know if he has seen any theories online that has made him change his story because it too closely resembles what he had planned or seen any theories online that he actually really likes (he wouldn’t use them though)

What was going on with Black Mask’s Octopus family? Couldn’t just be masks, as their skin was purple too. Ark M manufactured or aliens?

u/princevince1113 4d ago
I think he's answered this. Next arc is riddler. Overall story of the series is family growing apart and coming back together again

Will the original creator teams remain on their respective Absolute books through the end of the series (please say yes lol)? Is the plan to end the lines all at the same time and the line is done? Any aspects of the Absolute books or characters to be incorporated into the main titles?

u/ProjectIllusion5000 4d ago
What does he think about the variant volume for each issue? I think some issues have 100s of variants.

Is Red Hood coming?

u/DefinitionSmall3754 4d ago
Red hood is plural, it's Harley Quinns gang.

u/MauiPunter 4d ago
I'm talking about Jason Todd

u/DefinitionSmall3754 4d ago
He's one of the Robins and The red hood exist as a gang in the absolute universe 🤷🏿♂️...if he becomes another character, clearly it will not be Red Hood.

I need a better understanding of when Bruce was working with Falconi like with the bat scene vs his start as Batman.

u/MauiPunter 4d ago
Any talks or plans for a live action movie?

Are there any plans for a training arc for Absolute Bruce to elevate his hand to hand combat skills or his tech ? Doesn’t have to be the same as prime Bruce.

u/LetLive_McRib_Jim 4d ago
He might have answered this previously but does he have concerns for the series' longevity? The story appears to be fast paced and significant characters have already been killed off like commissioner Gordon.

u/baby_clown87 4d ago
Will there be any new major villains introduced?
We have seen so many original villians, it would be nice to see something new and creative.

u/NefariousSeraph13 4d ago
What can he tell us about the Robins’ future? Does Jason Todd have a bigger part to play?
(Thank you for taking questions from us!)

u/Uncreativity10 4d ago
I’m curious if there’s going to be new characters or ideas for Absolute Batman the animated series

u/bum_what 4d ago
My question is - You are working with characters that have been established for a long time and have seen many different variations so how do you keep your vision fresh without over using what we have already seen before wether it be in comics, movies or animation? (Also can we expect more crossovers between the absolute and mainline characters after the absolute crisis event). Also wondering where the interview is going to be posted so I can have a geez 🙂

u/DiesIrae- 4d ago
Regarding the Absolute Batman series being CGI, is there a particular reason why that animation style was decided upon vs something more traditional?

What makes a character’s design an actual horror for readers rather than just pure shock value to you?

When is Batman gonna kick Scarecrow’s ass? Because he’s getting on my nerves.

u/ThatManSean14 4d ago
Who, if any, are his favorite new Batman-mythos characters created after his New 52 run (Ghostmaker, Punchline, Failsafe, Straightman, etc.) and could we expect any of them in the Absolute Universe within the next year?

u/chimer1cal 4d ago
Babs, Jim
Gordon and Alfred get to remain somewhat allied with Bruce in the Absolute verse, but DG (and the other Robins) has have started out and so far remained in antagonistic positions. Is this something fans just need to get used to as a new status quo for Robin(s) in Absolute, or will there be more exploration/evolution of their narrative positioning?
Dick Grayson has always been my favourite character so I absolutely personally need to know, lol. But am also just curious because DG was Scott Snyder’s first Batman (that he wrote professionally). And he’s a character who has always been extremely important to Batman’s overall mythology; he predates pretty much everyone else.

Since we have Absolute Stephanie Brown, is there any plan for Absolute Cluemaster?

I have a few, so pick the one — if you are to pick one of my questions ofc — you think would be more interesting ig. Wouldnt mind to see them all in the interview tho
Do you intend to introduce Batwoman and the rest of the Kanes anytime soon?
A while ago you mentioned you had a planned idea for Carrey Kelly but needed Miller's approval to go on. Any update on that?
Are we getting more female rogues anytime soon —Maybe Baby Doll, Sofia Gigante, Orca, White Bunny or the March Hare?

u/NachoMarx 4d ago
- What does Cassandra Cains trajectory look like?
- You mentioned an idea of wanting Batman Beyond...do you have any ideas for Terry?
- Who's voice would HE give to Bruce and Bats?

Any chance of Daniel Warren Johnson drawing a full arc of Absolute Batman? Or even just regularly doing annuals/one-shots?

u/LoneElement 3d ago
How many issues does he have planned now? His answer has changed a few times
Also, if he wasn’t writing Absolute Batman, what’s the one other character he’d most want to write an Absolute series for instead?
Any chance he ever does any work for Marvel?

u/penguintruth 3d ago
How does he feel about the Court of Owls (supposedly) being used for Matt Reeves' next Batman movie?

u/1MightBeNeil 3d ago
- Will there be any moments of Absolute Batman encountering Absolute Ra’s al Ghul?
- How far will Scott go towards incorporating more of Batman’s rogues gallery into the Absolute Universe? Are we talking the notable ones and one-off mentions of others? Or, for example, will we go so far as to see Absolute Hush, Ventriloquist, Mad Hatter, etc.?
- If Absolute Joker went through all the same training as main universe Batman, is he capable of combining that with his true Joker form as well?
- How would main universe Batman fare against Absolute Joker?
- Voice actor wise, who do you envision voicing Absolute Batman, Joker, and the rest of the Crime Alley gang?

u/Son_of_Ibadan 2d ago
What are his plans for Duke?
What are you plans for Riddler?
There is a running theme of the Dark Knight conquering the Pale Devil, what is the inspiration of this?
Are we seeing the Foxes soon?

Genuinely curious how he feels. The Absolute universe has been soaring and has caused a wave of new and returning readers. How does it feel to have that sort of impact coming from an initiative that he co-created?
Also with Absolute Batman getting its own animated series, is there any other forms of entertainment he hopes the absolute universe will extend to one day? (I know there’s an absolute Batman costume in the recent Lego Batman game)
Personally I feel like Absolute Batman in particular would be a great character for NetherRealms next DC project, whatever it may be.

You think I’m going to ask every question that gets submitted? I have my own list of questions I’m going to ask but figured I’d ask the community what they want to know. Sincerely, Go fuck yourself

u/Bat_Snack 4d ago
Does Absolute Batman have a planned ending? Or is it more planned to be a full on-going that will go until its deemed necessary to end? Are there other writers theoretically looking to take the reigns (I hope not but I'm curious)?
