Starting with this edition of the Creator Q&A series, we’re doing things a bit differently: every Q&A will also feature a DC Community exclusive giveaway!

It’s simple: all you have to do is submit a question in the Q&A thread between March 6 and March 12 for the creators to answer, and you’ll be entered to win that month’s signed book…it’s that easy! The winner will be selected at random, and every eligible person who participates will receive one entry into the giveaway–as always, please limit your questions for Dennis and Chris to just one, so that they can answer as many as possible!

Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions. The Doom Patrol story in Lazarus Planet was one of the standouts to me and I look forward to the series!
My question for you: How much prior knowledge of the Doom Patrol is needed to jump onto your book? I’ve watched the TV series, but never indulged in the comics.
Hello Dennis & Chris,
Will we be seeing any DC heroes meeting the Unstoppable Doom Patrol? It was great to see Doom Patrol in Batman/Superman: World’s Finest comic series when it first started.
Given how different Doom Patrol comics can be from your typical superhero comics, when writing them is it hard at all balancing doing something new with them and staying true to what people expect a Doom Patrol comic to be?
Doom Patrol is often considered a small team of misfits and outcasts. How will their unfamiliar and — dare I say — inhuman nature affect the plot and characters within the series?
In a team book like this you are going to have older characters that people have known for a long time, and newer characters that have just been added to the team. How hard is it to make a team mesh like that? And how did you decide on the team?
