Is Geoff Johns, the writer of Infinite Crisis, giving a full script?
Phil: Geoff is actually writing full script, which is amazing because many of these pages are 11 or 12 panel pages. For a writer to be able to do that and figure out spatial relations on a page with 12 panels is insane. We’re trying to approach the art differently than Crisis on Infinite Earths. I think there’s one slight sort of homage, but we’re just trying to give it a whole other artistic tone. It will seem similar because it’s a lot of characters in a cosmic story, and my own similarities to George Pérez will obviously be there, but we’re also trying to not make it that tight. I’m approaching this job as just an artist. I definitely have some opinions but I’m trying not to let them overwhelm the job. I just feel lucky to be working on it so if I can see a better way to tell a story, like maybe we should combine panels, then that’s great, but it’s mostly trying to draw what Geoff has given me.
