The broader strokes were initially more of a joint project. I grant that I may be misremembering here. It was the way that it was engineered that was Quesada’s idea, or so I’m led to understand.

Remember, what happened in to Peter and MJ in "OMD" wasn't his idea -- that was editorially mandated by Joe Quesada. And do you really think he would voluntarily walk into the kind of firestorm of controversy it would cause if DC wanted him to do the same thing again? I think he just wants to tell good, solid, creative Superman stories -- and if he can live up to what he describes in the Usenet quote linked above, wanting to capture the sensibility and characterization of Moore's "Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?", we couldn't possibly ask for anything better.

Given "One More Day"...there will also be people with one foot in each camp at once upon reading this as well. There are going to be people glad to read this, and people fearful upon reading this.
