Writer Jason Aaron, known for his work on Superman, recently discussed his approach to the “Absolute Superman” series on the Heroes Journey podcast. He explained how he became involved in the “Absolute” line thanks to Scott Snyder, and why he specifically wanted to tackle the Superman story. Aaron detailed his initial plans, which included a “Superman Year One” concept, and covered the origins of key elements like Superman’s suit, the characters Saul and Lazarus, and the role of Brainiac. He also shared his philosophy of storytelling, emphasizing that he focuses on the story itself rather than fan reactions, and how his changes aim to strengthen the core of Superman’s identity, particularly his experience as an immigrant.
The conversation also explored the creative choices behind the suit’s design, with artist Rafa Sandoval explaining that the cape represents the remnants of Krypton and how its appearance changes alongside Clark Kent’s emotional journey. The hosts and Aaron previewed upcoming storylines, teasing questions about other Kryptonian survivors, the potential for an “Absolute Zod” storyline, Lex Luthor’s involvement, and Brainiac’s long-term role as a major villain.
