"I love Amanda Waller, AKA The Wall, the supreme Security State bureaucrat of the DC Comics universe, especially when she's written by John Ostrander and Greg Rucka (and, in her cartoon form, by Dwayne McDuffie). The mission of WALLER VS. WILDSTORM has always been to propose a backstory for her—that is, to explain how the character got to the point where those great writers and their great collaborators told the great Amanda Waller stories that they told. (Although, to be clear, we are an out-of-continuity miniseries.) An early tagline we batted around for the book, if only in our internal discussions, was Build That Wall."

"One of the things about WildStorm's history of these themes of untrustworthy governments, untrustworthy corporations, untrustworthy security figures, is that they haven't quite had an encounter with a Lois Lane figure. Putting someone like Lois particularly at an early stage of her career — before we know her as the Lois we know from Superman and the rest of the DCU — it gives a unique opportunity for a flashback year one story to show how this character and several others hone themselves through this early crucible."

"When I started reading comics, the continuity was a huge part of the appeal to me. Nowadays it’s a drawback. Not the character’s history, but the interlockedness of it all tying up creative vision into narrower boxes than I’d prefer. I’m glad to see Frank Miller’s take on the DC characters in their own world. I’d love to see it for other creators. I’d like to see Mark Waid do _exactly_ what he’d like to do with Superman, without having to be concerned about editorial approval or whether it matches up with what’s going on in FLASH or JLA. I’d like to see Jaime Hernandez do whatever the hell he wanted. Or others. I want ridiculous stories." -- Kurt Busiek
