August 29, 2010: Gary Frank Talks "Superman: Secret Origin"

Secret Origin #6 Speaking at the Toronto Fan Expo, Gary Frank told fans that the recently complete "Superman: Secret Origin" 6-issue miniseries, while not necessarily "new and different", was a story he and Geoff Johns wanted to do.

    "It was just kind of condensing the things that were important to Geoff and I in terms of what we felt captured Superman best and resonated with us," said Frank. "We were just trying to do a distilled version of that. The whole thing was to re-examine the origin and the development of the character while having everything feeling slightly familiar but without necessarily repeating events that we've seen 200 times before. We didn't want to introduce something kind of massively out of left field or then we'd feel that it wasn't necessarily consistent with what had happened to Superman."
