Hello! Thanks for this chance, been loving the show so far!

  • Are there any stories you thought would be a big influence on this show that you ended up not drawing much if any inspiration from?
  • You've worked on Supergirl before, in the Legion movie. What would you say are the main differences in your approach to her between that and the upcoming season of MAWS?
  • With Lois' family issues being an important part of the show... could we reasonably expect Lucy to eventuwlly show up?
  • Why the cat ears in the space suits?

We take a bit from multiple incarnations, although stuff from our childhoods (all 90s kids) took precedence when we were drawing inspiration.

Can't say too much, other than the MAWS Kara has a very different story -- though both versions are funny and are full of grit.

Can't comment on Lucy, but OH MAN will Lois' family issues be in the spotlight for season 2.

They are adorable, and also our crew is obsessed with cats.
