On Crisis and Superman:
SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON 2005 (CANCELED) (14-17 Jul 2005)
"I started reading DC comics with Crisis on Infinite Earths -""Eddie is the Superman editor - I've learned to give him [Superman] the size and the mass he needs - I'm getting it now."
Regarding his depiction of emotion:
"I'm proud that - I think you can always tell what they're feeling by looking at their faces."The hardest part of drawing Infinite Crisis:
"The hardest part of Infinite Crisis would have to be scenes with Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman - I just want to nail it - ""The page-count - There are so many points in Infinite Crisis that could be used as splash pages."
There was a question to Jimenez regarding what 'school of art' he considers himself from:
Jimenez responded that he considers himself among a small number of artists using "classic representational storytelling," along with such notables as Ethan Van Sciver, George Perez, and Brian Bolland.
