"Ever since the influential Superman: The Movie and its extraordinary soundtrack captivated me as a child," Jiménez shared in a statement with io9, "I've been an ardent fan of the DC Comics universe. My first sketches were inevitably of Batman or Superman. To have my dream of crafting these characters realized and transformed into my profession is invaluable. It's been over a decade of living these adventures everyday, collaborating with exceptional writers like James Tynion IV, Chip Zdarsky, Scott Snyder, and Peter Tomasi, learning so much from them, and drawing inspiration from my fellow artists who consistently excel, with the outstanding editors at DC always at my side."
