Mark Millar began work at 9am scripting a 20-page black and white
Superior comic book, with Braithwaite and the other artists appearing on stage throughout the day to work on the pencils, inks, and lettering, including
Dave Gibbons,
Frank Quitely,
John Romita Jr.,
Jock,

Duncan Fegredo,
Simon Furman,
David Lafuente,
John McCrea,
Sean Phillips and
Liam Sharp,
[7] who all drew a panel each, with regular Superior artist
Leinil Yu creating the book's front cover. The book was completed in 11 hours, 19 minutes, and 38 seconds, and was published through Icon on 23 November 2011, with all royalties being donated to Yorkhill Children's Foundation.
