This dovetailed with another feeling I had about the book—it should feel “low budget.” If this story was a movie, it wouldn’t be The Avengers, with the spectacular effects $220 million dollars can buy. It wouldn’t even be the Ocean’s Eleven remake, with a gorgeous cast of glamorous A-listers. This comic is about the struggles of a broke bunch of C-list losers. Every choice I make in the art needs to support that. I can draw a slick, contemporary superhero costume, but no one in this story is going to have one. I want my cast to look uncomfortable and a little foolish in their super-suits. The characters in Superior Foes are mostly drawn to look like they’d take third place in a cosplay contest.
