TEN YEARS AND COUNTING

On September 5 of this year, BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES will be celebrating its tenth anniversary of production. This ranges everywhere from the show itself to the comics based upon it to books, toys, video games, merchandising...everything started on this date.

As a way to celebrate, co-editor Dick Grayson has set up a page at his WORLD'S FINEST site where he has big things planned for this momentous occasion, including creator interviews, reviews, and a poll that will ultimately decide what the "best episode ever" is. (This was recently decided as being HEART OF ICE. Quel suprise.)

MOVIES
-ONSTAR is holding a contest where a winner gets to have a walk-on role in whatever the next Batman movie will be.

-More confirmation on the 2004 release date of BATMAN: YEAR ONE.  Darren Aronofsky's next film, LAST MAN, is being filmed this summer, and YEAR ONE is likely his next project. This should start filming by mid-2003, aiming for a summer 2004 release date. Thanks to BATMAN-ON-FILM.com and the GOTHAM WEEKLY NEWS for this tidbit!
-Aronofsky is also saying that Ellen Burstyn, the star of another of his films (REQUIEM FOR A DREAM) will appear in his next film. This could be either YEAR ONE or another film he has on his slate, "LAST MAN".

*BATMAN BEYOND: LIVE ACTION NEWS:
-It looks like an independent movie is being made. Check out this link and see for yourself:

*THE FOURTH ANIMATED BATMAN MOVIE
-No new news here. It probably won't be another BATMAN BEYOND movie, though.

*CATWOMAN
-Don't count on this one any time soon.

*BATMAN VS. SUPERMAN
-THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER reports that director Wolfgang Petersen has changed the title of the proposed WORLD'S FINEST movie to simply BATMAN VS. SUPERMAN. Andrew Kevin Walker (SE7EN) wrote the draft. The two lead roles should be cast within two to four weeks, with 2003 as set as a temporary production start date.
Follow this link for more:
http://www.cnn.com/2002/SHOWBIZ/Movies/07/09/film.petersen.reut/index.html
-Variety has revealed that the much-rumoured BATMAN & SUPERMAN movie is the front runner for release in 2004. With the second installment of the SCOOBY-DOO franchise coming as well as HARRY POTTER AND THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN in 2004, it still leaves three slots open that year for some big budget spectacle movies.
Here is what Variety reported:
    "Batman and/or Superman": It's been five years since the poorly received "BATMAN & ROBIN," and the WB now seems ready to take its superhero responsibilities seriously.
    Last year, the studio brought Darren Aronofsky on board to develop "Batman: Year One" with creator Frank Stack. But the superhero project that has the greatest likelihood of moving forward, Horn now says, is "Batman & Superman," in which the Man of Steel and the Dark Knight join forces against evil. Wolfgang Petersen is attached to produce, develop and possibly direct.

LIVE ACTION TELEVISION
-Though it is remaining in the current timeslot on the WB, in Canada, SMALLVILLE will move from its Wednesday timeslot at 8pm to a Thursday timeslot at 7pm, also on GLOBAL.

EXCLUSIVE INTERNET ENDEAVOURS:
-Nothing notable to speak of...yet.

TOYS, BOOKS, AND OTHER MERCHANDISE
-MATTEL has just gained the rights to Batman, Superman, Justice League, and a handful of other WB properties. They will have exclusive rights to merchandising all the action figures (etc) around the world, excluding Asia. Mattel used to hold the rights to Batman, but Hasbro/Kenner has been in the driver's seat from 1989 until now.
-Warner Bros.' Senior Vice President of Advertising and Promotions, Joel Ehrlich revealed that the public "won't see a Justice League toy line this year, but will sometime in 2003." Sounds like a plan to me!
-DC Direct will be releasing an Aquaman maquette (in the same style as the other 7 JLA maquettes) in 2003.
-We can look forward to the PUPPETS OF CRIME four-pack, featuring Undercover Bruce Wayne, Nightwing, a repainted Killer Croc, and a brand-new  Ventriloquist/Scarface figure! Apparently, they're due out in mid-August. For pics, go to the following link. Thanks to Bill Curtis for the link!
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?MfcISAPICommand=ViewItem&item=1726242346
-JUSTICE LEAGUE is making its way onto GAMEBOY ADVANCE! The game is entitled "JUSTICE LEAGUE: INJUSTICE FOR ALL", and features more than 14 unique levels, as players pick from one of seven Justice Leaguers (Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Green Lantern, Hawkgirl and Martian Manhunter) and use the individual character's special powers and skills to defeat the Injustice League's evil plans. The Injustice Gang consists of characters such as Lex Luthor, The Joker, The Shade, and more. Justice League: Injustice For All is in development and scheduled to ship in fall 2002 for the Nintendo Game Boy Advance. The Justice League will also be featured in video games scheduled for release in 2003 on the PS2, Xbox, and Nintendo GameCube.

SPECIAL IN THIS ISSUE!
INTERVIEW WITH JASON HALL
(writer of GOTHAM ADVENTURES )

-interviewed by Tim "TWO-FACE" Leighton

First off, Mr. Hall, thank you for taking the time to do this interview. It really means a lot to us to talk to any of the creators that have a part in shaping our favourite characters. ;-Y

So, let's get started!

TIM#01: Could you tell us a little about yourself? Like myself, many of us
weren't terribly familiar with your name prior to GOTHAM ADVENTURES #51. Where you're from, your age, what else you've written...you know, just a basic background.

JASON#01: I'm 29 years old, have read and loved comics since the fifth grade, and now happily live in the Great Northwest. I co-created PISTOLWHIP COMICS (http://www.pistolwhipcomics.com) with collaborator Matt Kindt (published by Top Shelf Productions) - which includes writing the comic "Mephisto and the Empty Box" (recently optioned for feature film by Singer/Jensen Entertainment) and doing some additional writing in the "Pistolwhip" graphic novel. The books were named #1 Indy Comics of 2001 by WIZARD Magazine, listed on TIME Magazine's Top Ten List of Comics for 2001, and we were nominated for two Harvey Awards. I'm also a fairly regular contributor to Dark Horse's STAR WARS TALES (I wrote "A Wookiee Scorned!" in #10, "The Princess Leia Diaries" in #11, the upcoming "Children of the Force" in #13, and another story after that in #14). Also coming up this year, I've written a brand-new 8-page PISTOLWHIP story called "January" for this September's DARK HORSE MAVERICK: HAPPY ENDINGS book, as well as the next PISTOLWHIP epic graphic novel, titled "Pistolwhip: The Yellow Menace", due out this December.

TIM#02: Lots of writers and artists have loved Batman from a very young age. What got you interested?

JASON#02: I've always liked Batman. I remember when I was a little kid, my grandfather took me to a live stage show of Batman and Robin that was sort of a combination of the comics and the 60's TV show - it was amazing! We even went backstage and got to take a picture of Batman and Robin in an "action pose". But the two things that really drove Batman home for me were the BATMAN ANIMATED SERIES (a no-brainer there!) and "Batman: Year One" by Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli (which is, in my humble opinion, not just the greatest Batman story ever - for both writing and artwork - but the best "super-hero" story as well). I think Batman's tragic origins and the fact that he has no "super-powers" are a couple of the elements that make him such an appealing character. 

TIM#03. Do tell. It's for many of those same reasons that I got into Batman, myself. I know lots of us fans would love to take a stab at writing or drawing for the comics professionally. Do you have any suggestions for aspiring writers and artists?

JASON#03: All I can really offer is, if writing and/or drawing comics is your dream - then stick to it as long as you can. There's no way to predict how long things will take. It's a lot of hard work, as is anything that's worthwhile. But the more you write, or the more you draw, the better you're going to get. I feel like I'm constantly learning new things. Consider self-publishing or trying to get published by one of the indy publishers. There's more to the world of comics than just the "big-name" companies!

TIM#04. Considering all the storylines you tied in to of GOTHAM ADVENTURES, you must have a thorough knowledge of the animated Bat-universe. As you were chosen to write a filler issue, why is it that you chose to write this particular story? What inspired you?

JASON#04: I am a huge fan of BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES, and if I had to pick a favorite episode, it would be "Heart of Ice". I had the basic idea for the story in #51 ever since that episode aired for the first time oh-so-many years ago. It was probably right after I had graduated from high school, and it was sort of a pipe-dream - wishing I could write for the series and do a follow-up episode. So the inspiration was certainly that episode. I'm drawn to tragic stories (my "Mephisto" comic is another example). I think it's because those types of stories tend to leave you wanting more - they sort of linger inside you - and I like that. Of course, that's not to say I don't enjoy reading and telling stories that aren't tragic or morose.

Plus, I enjoy the continuity of the Batman Animated Universe, and I wanted to utilize story and character elements that had been established or hinted at on the various shows and in the various Animated comics to give the story a sense of "moving forward". I like it when things aren't simply back to the "status quo" at the end of a story. I like to feel that change can happen with these characters to a certain degree. So I wanted to put some of that into my story, by dealing with the Nora/Victor relationship, and to a lesser extent, by hinting at the potential future relationship between Bruce and Barbara. And my goal concerning the continuity was to deal with it in such a way that it supports the story without making things entirely hinged on it - rewarding long-time fans of the Animated series and comics, but without alienating casual readers.

TIM#05. Do tell - it was a breath of fresh air! Anyway, I won't spoil the issue for any of our readers that hasn't read it, but I imagine that the task of giving Nora Fries some actual dialogue is quite a daunting task, considering we've had expectations building up over the past ten years since HEART OF ICE first aired. I personally feel you pulled it off quite nicely. What are your thoughts about this creative process?

JASON#05: First, thanks for the kind words! Basically, I had created for myself an opportunity to make Nora more of a "real" character - to develop her a bit so she wasn't just a beautiful female "MacGuffin". Part of that was establishing for the first time that Nora is a scientist. If you consider that she married two brilliant scientists, it seemed plausible that she'd be one herself - giving them all a common ground. I definitely think it makes her a stronger character than if she was simply a fashion model type or something like that. I didn't want Nora to be just about being beautiful - I wanted Victor to be in love with her just as much (if not more) for her mind as her looks. I didn't want either of them to have the possibility of remotely being considered "superficial". Victor and Nora are very much in love with each other, but there's a growing list of obstacles that keeps them apart. That's the greatest tragedy, and it's what makes their story so compelling.

Concerning the other characters in the story - since it was basically established on BATMAN BEYOND that Barbara and Bruce had a romantic relationship in the past, I figured all that had to start somewhere...so I wanted to just hint at the potential beginnings of that a bit. But as with most things, those scenes dealing with that in my story could be interpreted in many different ways. I thought it made sense to play the potential Bruce/Barbara relationship against the Victor/Nora relationship - Bruce gaining a greater understanding of Victor's motivations (but, of course, not agreeing with Victor's actions) - and perhaps coming to some degree of realization concerning his own feelings. Both Freeze's and Batman's actions are basically fueled by emotions, and both characters tend to build a wall around those emotions with a chilly demeanor.

TIM#06. Judging from your posts at the Toonzone message boards, Mr. Freeze seems to be your favourite villain, or even character, period. Why is that?

JASON#06: It's true, the Batman Animated version of Mr. Freeze is definitely my favorite character from the show (if I had to pick one). Mr. Freeze is someone who is supposedly frozen to emotion, yet his entire motivation is based on emotion! It's that ironic nature that I find very appealing. And on top of that, you have the relationship with Nora (as I talked about above). I always wanted to see more of their story...however, little did I know I'd be the one telling
it!

TIM#07: Speaking of Freeze, I have to ask...whadaya think of Arnie?

JASON#07: It's probably best not to even mention that movie... aren't we all trying to forget it? :-)

TIM#08: Yeah - but the emotional scars from that movie are still haunting me. Getting back on track then, what are some of your other favourite characters?

JASON#08: From the Batman Animated Universe, some favorites are Batgirl, Poison Ivy (and Harley, when they're teamed up), Two-Face, and Catwoman. Of course, that's not to say I don't like the Joker and the rest of the gang. Batman does have the greatest cast of villains - and that's probably attributed to the fact that most of them have tragic origins (Mr. Freeze being the most tragic of all).

From comics in general, my favorite "super-heroes" are the Golden Age Justice Society. I'm a huge fan of the 20's-40's, and there's something about those characters that is just so appealing - the costumes, the era, the whole thing. Martian Manhunter, the Legion of Super-Heroes, and Hellboy (though I suppose he's technically not a "super-hero") are some more favorites in that category.

TIM#09: Fan reaction to your one-issue stint has been astounding. What are the chances of you returning to do another issue in the future?

JASON#09: Of course, GOTHAM ADVENTURES already has a regular creative team made up of talented folks, and fill-in issues don't happen too often - but I would certainly love to do another one!

TIM#10: Would you like to take a shot at writing for the mainstream Batman comics, too?

JASON#10: Definitely! Ideally, I'd love to do a monthly title, while being able to do other projects on the side. Presently, I'm working on a pretty exciting project (non "Bat-related"), which I can't talk about it quite yet. However, the announcement should be coming up soon, and I'll be sure to let everyone know!

TIM#11: Is there anything else you'd like to say to us Bat-fans across the world?

JASON#11: I'd just like to say that I'm flattered by and truly appreciate all the wonderful comments and high praise readers have had about my Gotham Adventures issue - thanks, everyone! The most rewarding thing about writing comics and telling stories is finding out that people out there are appreciating them. It was an honor to work with such a talented team of people (Brad Rader, Terry Austin, Zylonol, Albert T. Guzman, Harvey Richards, and Joan Hilty) - from the artwork, to the coloring, to the cover, to the lettering - I thought it all turned out top-notch! (And if you haven't picked up the issue yet...what are you waiting for?! :)  )

TIM: Thanks for participating in our interview, Jason! Good luck with all your future work - we hope to see your name in print again soon!

-Tim "TWO-FACE" Leighton
