A B:TAS legend returns!
Batman: The Animated Series is one of the greatest adaptations of a comic book character of all time, and a big part of that is one of the original series’ directors, Kevin Altieri. Altieri recently returned to the world of the Dark Knight with the publication of Batman: The Adventures Continue: Season Three #2, for which the legendary animation director provided the art.
But the cool thing was, Andrew said, “Let me get you, Paul, and Alan on the phone together,” which was this great reunion between the three of us… We were on the phone for half an hour, and at one point I realized Andrew hadn’t said anything on the call for some time. And he goes, “I’m just enjoying this as a fan!” They had this one-shot story about Harley and Batman, and the rest is history.
Working on Batman: The Animated Series seemed to open up the doors for many of the creators involved to do some work at DC Comics… What was it like getting to write and draw comics at DC? Had you previously entertained thoughts of being a comic artist, or tried to break into the industry before? Kevin Altieri: I think it’s the whole Zorro thing… this rich, privileged guy who doesn’t have to care, yet he’ll stand up for the little guy, even though he doesn’t have to. There’s something incredibly endearing about him putting up this front of being a playboy, and yet he’s also the scariest thing any criminal can hope to run into.
Changing gears, how did you get involved with the Gen 13 animated movie? Were you a fan of the original comics, and how did that open the door to you later doing comics for Wildstorm?
