Writer Ron Marz and artist Denys Cowan are set to tackle the Batman and Robin branch of DC’s upcoming ‘non-reboot’ retcon event Convergence. Recently the duo sat down to discuss their favorite duo and what we might expect during the mega crossover.
"RON MARZ: This is, in a lot of ways, what every Batman story is about: protectingGotham City. That’s ultimately Batman’s mission, to protect the city and its people. But of course this version of Gotham City has been plunked down on an alien world, so this is one of the most extreme … no pun intended … challenges that Batman has ever faced. The other facet of the story is the relationship between Bruce Wayne, Damian Wayne and Jason Todd. It’s a dysfunctional family dynamic on an operatic scale.We’re sticking with Bruce, Damian and Jason, since they’re really the core of the story. We’ve only got two issues, so we’re going to keep the focus pretty tight on that trio. Though I think an appearance byAlfred is almost a necessity.DC: Lot’s of Bat Family and many of the major bad guys. I’m working with Ron Marz and i love his writing ..a real joy working from his scripts. and Klaus Janson is in a class by himself as an artist/inker to work with them is a dream come true…RM:…it’s Batman and his two sons fighting to protect Gotham City, as long as they can stop fighting each other. But I can also tell you it’s a beautiful book, thanks to the talents of Denys and Klaus."
Convergence is coming fast and the Batman & Robin portion hits shelves on April 8th.
