Newsarama: Derek, Infinity Watch is a team that has a long legacy in the Marvel Universe.
What’s it been like putting a new spin on a classic concept?
Derek Landy:Its been a daunting process…!
How do you balance all the different goals of each character with the larger mission of Infinity Watch?
That said, the balance is a delicate thing.
On that note, who are the characters you’ve found yourself most connecting with as you go?
Landy:Its interesting, because there are four obvious main characters here.
But then we have Coulson, who has quickly established himself to be leading man material.
Star, of course, is our anti-hero, so youd think that SHE should guide us through.
How has it been working with artist Ruairi Coleman?
What’s he bringing to the table?
Landy:Working with Ruairi is great.
I have to ask about the Thanos of it all.
Where the Infinity Stones go, he’s rarely far behind.
How does he factor into Infinity Watch?
Landy:He doesnt!
Well, not REALLY.
Because of that, I knew I should only use him sparingly.
Landy:I went through a LOT of possible bad guys for this one.
What do you want readers to know going into Infinity Watch #1?
Thanos is one of thebest supervillainsof all time.
