I was very impressed by his work on Detective (and LOTDK) and he was gracious enough to be interviewed. I'd say we'll hear a lot from him. He really seems to know his stuff.

What do you think it is about your approach to the character that resonates so well with readers?

To be honest I'm not entirely sure, I was pleasantly surprised with the reaction my work received and I'm very grateful for all the feedback. All I know is that my approach was stemming entirely from a fan's perspective.
Great interview! Thanks fopr posting it and thanks Shane for the insight!

The part quoted was my favorite part... sometimes I think writers can forget what it was like to be a fan and what brought them to the character in the first place... Shane wrote a kick ass Batman story he as a fan would want and based on the response it's what the fans DO want!

That was a great interview. DC should put Shane on a regular batbook. I will buy it every month if he were on it.

I'd love to see him on a regular bat title myself. He's impressed me with his work in a big way. Hopefully, DC will take notice and give him a chance once their's an opening.

I loved Shane's arc on 'Tec. If DC gave him a full time gig on a Batman title, I'd buy every issue.
