Kingdom Come is a four-issue DC Comics graphic novel miniseries that came out in 1996. Mark Waid wrote it, Alex Ross envisioned it and painted it, and this epic story continues to ripple through not just the comics industry but the mainstream.
It’s a study in heroism, morality, and generational change. And despite the large cast of characters, this really is a Superman story at its core - where truth, justice and the American way come in direct conflict with a brutal new world.
You hear the world “legendary” overused to the point of being toothless, but this is truly a legendary comic series.
“The Legend of Kingdom Come” is a new documentary about how Alex Ross’ artistic vision reshaped comic art and redefined superheroes across generations.
It’s being crowdfunded on Kickstarter through late October, and Executive Producer Sal Abbinanti joined me at Gene & Jude's to talk about it.
We get into the role Kingdom Come played in the era it was released, Alex Ross’s artistic method of using costumed models for photo reference (including my guest Sal), the working relationship between Ross and writer Mark Waid, the lasting influence of Kingdom Come on pop culture (including James Gunn’s forthcoming Superman movie), and the overall making of the documentary.
Sal’s a favorite guest and person of mine, and he’s put together a story about comic books for everyone, including people who don’t read comic books.
Give the interview a listen - Sal’s story about Alex putting Mark up in a Chicago hotel is cracking me up as I type this.
