The conversation moves to artist Howard Porter. He has worked with Joshua Williamson on FLASH, DEATHSTROKE and BATMAN. He drew KNIGHT TERRORS: FIRST BLOOD and KNIGHT TERRORS: NIGHT'S END. Why was Howard Porter the perfect artist to tell the "bookends" of the series?

Ben Abernathy asks Joshua about having Batman in both the main story and his own story:

This concludes the DAWN OF DC: KNIGHT TERRORS panel. Everyone on the panel was very passionate about the books they are writing. I am very impressed with the quality of writing that Joshua Williamson has on his books: SUPERMAN, GREEN ARROW, KNIGHT TERRORS, KNIGHT TERRORS: SUPERMAN, and all the rest. I always enjoy his work and I hope you do too!
