What drew you to the exquisite corpse method as a structural framework—and how did it shape your writing process across collaborators?2. You’ve said before that horror lets you explore personal fears in metaphorical ways—what fear sits at the heart of Exquisite Corpses for you personally?3. This project is filled with shifting tones and visual voices—how did you maintain thematic cohesion across multiple artists and chapters?4. You’ve tackled horror through multiple lenses—from psychological horror in The Nice House on the Lake to body horror in Something is Killing the Children. Where does Exquisite Corpses fall on your personal horror spectrum?5. You’ve spoken about burnout and choosing joy in your writing—did this collaborative process reawaken anything in you creatively?6. There’s a class warfare element baked into the DNA of Exquisite Corpses. How important was it for you to make that commentary explicit rather than just subtext?7. You’re known for big ideas in genre fiction. Was there ever a version of Exquisite Corpses that could’ve been a prose project or TV pitch—or was comics always the only way this could work?8. What’s one element in Exquisite Corpses—a character, twist, or scene—that you’re most excited for readers to finally experience, but can’t say anything about yet?

    Interview: Scott Snyder talks Absolute Batman!

    If readers were to read Absolute Batman alongside your original Black Mirror arc, what emotional or thematic throughline do you think would emerge? Is there a hidden continuity of self that ties those works together?

    You've mentioned that Absolute Batman aims to confront contemporary fears. How do you balance integrating real-world issues like mass violence into a superhero narrative without it becoming overwhelming for readers?

    This version of Bane is described as having a “true form” that’s finally revealed. Was there a moment early on in this series—or in your own Batman run—where you first imagined this version of Bane, or did he evolve uniquely within the Absolute Batman framework

    Ark m in Absolute Batman seems less like a building and more like a state of consciousness. How did you want to reinvent the idea of 'asylum' in this story?

    This series has played with identity, memory, and repressed trauma—common Snyder themes—but how has fatherhood and your recent creator-owned work influenced how you're writing Batman now, years after your first run?

    You’ve said in past interviews that Batman is a character who builds. Does this arc tear him down in a way that still honors that core idea—or are you challenging that philosophy head-on?

    With the Absolute line reimagining iconic characters, what can readers anticipate in future installments, and how do you envision the evolution of this universe?
