"Q- Currently youre also working on something called the Marvel Nemesis: The Imperfects. Its a project were doing in alliance with EA. It started out being a very cool project but once you came on board it really leaped to something much larger. Tell us a bit about it, its a bit of a collaboration?
GP- Yep, its a super cool crossover miniseries which throws a team of classic Marvel characters against a team of brand new superheroes created by the brilliant folks at EA. The series will be published as a lead up to an EA video game release this fall and involves an alien scientist who clashes with a series of Marvel heroes when he comes to Earth to create a team of technologically transformed super warriors. So for the past few months, Ive been working with Marvel editor Mark Paniccia and the EA creative team to develop a story whichll be an exciting, compelling epic in its own right while introducing the characters and setting up the conflicts whichll be explored in the game.
The new EA characters are incredible -- I think folks are going to be blown away by their design and powers. And the comic book art by Renato Arlem is just tremendous. Hes rendering these superheroes with a beautiful, gritty, fluid realism which really makes the characters and story come to life.
So you know therell be eye-popping Sci-fi superhero action. But whats got me really excited is that weve found the emotional hook -- were exploring that hidden core of doubt which may plague even the greatest heroes as the Marvel characters and the new EA heroes struggle with the temptation of "perfection" offered by the alien scientist's transformative technology. Its going to be a fun ride, with some real emotional consequences for new and classic characters alike."
