The Hero Nation Index is a Monday round-up of news from the genre sector (sci-fi, fantasy, superheroes, horror, and animation). Since the very first Star Trek mission aired on NBC in September 1966…
The Dark Knight“Every single one of our security detail was into comics and not just the TV shows and the movies, they were pulling out comics, some from the 1990s, too, so these were longtime fans and passionate fans,” Lee said with obvious pride. “The theme of bringing the superhero to the real heroes, the ones without capes, it was amazing.”
Lee is a rare meld of creative talent and high-level corporate leadership. Not only is he a visual savant he’s arguably the most popular comic book artist of the last 25 years. And as the uber-art director for DC his design agenda and sensibility echo in the DC Universe in a profound way. Art was also his path to acceptance as a child: Lee immigrated to the United States at age 5 and spoke no English.
Readers of DC Comics might want to watch Lee’s body of work over upcoming months to see if they can find imagery that Lee brought back with him like souvenirs of the imagination. “I was definitely taking visual note of everything,” Lee said. “Tom King and I were nerding-out basically…we saw an old Soviet tank from the Iraq War, for instance, on the side of the road so I made them pull over and I was checking out the turret and the scale of it. I had seen images in military books of the vehicle but I had never seen one in person. As an artist you take everything in and store it. I don’t know where I will use it but it will be in there somewhere, someday.
