With the first collection of his and co-creator Jock's Image Comics series slated to arrive in stores Wednesday, June 24, Scott Snyder spoke with EW.com about "Wytches," and released the first issue online, in its entirety.
"There's a realism to his art where it feels like when he draws Batman or he draws the Rook family, they're walking in the world we know - it's not exaggerated," Snyder said, describing his "Wytches" co-creator's art to EW. "And yet there's a discomfort when he wants to bring suspense or when he wants to bring dread, where things are just tilted a little too much, and there's just a little too much shadow."
"'Wytches' was a much more personal story, more so than anything else I've done, and I expected a small readership and instead the fans have just been -- wow," the writer told CBR News in a recent interview about the first arc and what he and Jock have planned when the series returns in late 2015. "The stories and letters they wrote to us, and the things they shared about connecting with Sailor and her anxiety and her bravery and with Charlie and his frustrations and hopes as a parent -- all of those things have been one of the most gratifying experiences that I've had as a writer."
