July 6, 2010: Jeff Lemire Signs Exclusive Deal With DC Comics

Superboy Jeff Lemire, writer on the up-coming "Superboy" monthly title, announced today that he has signed exclusively with DC Comics. Jeff spoke with ComicBookResources.com about the decision, discussing his work on "Superboy" amongst all the other questions. Here's that portion of the interview...

    Your other major project coming up is "Superboy." Can you give us a tease about what we'll see in that?

    "Superboy" has been an incredible experience so far. I feel like I've hit into something pretty cool with that book already. I'm on the third script, so it's starting to really take shape. I'm really happy with the tone and the mood of it and I'm really happy with the artist [Pier Gallo]. We seem to have a really strong connection already. I'm excited about the potential of that book and I hope people give it a chance. It's certainly going to be a very different Superboy than anything else that anybody has ever read before.

    Again, I have this big overarching mythology planned for that book that I've put a lot of time into. I think it's going to be a book that, if people give it a chance, it's going to be something really special. I'm kind of comparing it to "Lost." There's this overarching mystery that's going to be going on in Smallville that's going to slowly reveal itself. So I'm really excited about the potential of that book and it capturing an audience.
