Comics Continuum chatted with Gregory Noveck, senior vice president, creative affairs at DC Comics, who said that Darwyn Cooke's graphic novel: 'The New Frontier' was a natural for adaptation in animation:
"As soon as I read New Frontier, when I read Darwyn's work, I was like, 'This is the best thing I've read in 10 years,'" Noveck said. "I loved it. It spoke to me. I thought it was just so powerful.
"And looking at Darwyn's linework you could see that this was something you could actually do in animation. You could translate it fairly faithfully without messing it up too much. And, for me, the story was very clear.
