Tom King Wrote MISTER MIRACLE for Modern America
“Mitch Gerads and I wanted to try to make a book that was as good as a Watchmen or a New Frontier, with something that reflected current times. I’m not saying that we did that, but I can try to do it. Because when I think of our current times I feel a little bit like I’m trapped…like when I wake up in the morning, I feel like I’m in a world that I don’t understand.”
But why use Mister Miracle of all character in the DC pantheon, to tell an epic tale that reflects our modern world? Why not a Superman or a Batman? King explains why it had to be Scott Free, saying “right now, it feels like there’s nowhere to run. And the rules that I once thought made sense don’t make sense anymore, and it just feels like we’re all in this together and there’s no way out, and we can’t escape. And what better way to write about that feeling than with the God of Escape? It seemed like a good fit.”
