Awwwww… Jim Lee finished the most recent issue of Justice League #5 just before his new child was born, and while his wife Carla was rather heavily pregnant. He’s written that the new arrival held out until he’d finished his deadline, which was appreciated by all, I’m sure. But what tribute could Jim Lee make…
We know from the publicity that DC Vertigo are publishing graphic novel adaptaions of the Millenium Trilogy, with Denise Mina and Leonardo Manco adapting the first book The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo into two parts. And in April they’ll be publishing a free teaser of the first graphic novel. But Bleeding Cool (alone it…
Recently, Bleeding Cool ran an article on how Marvel were looking to get certain creators out of their exclusive deals with Marvel, in an attempt to save money. And how Ariel Olivetti may have been a good example, locked into a two year excluisve deal with Marvel but suddenly appearing on the rejigged Men Of…
Toy News International ran these scans of images of DC toys and statues for 2012. But did they miss the headline story? Or is it a case of one side of DC not knowing what the other is doing? Because in May 2012, as part of the New 52 Cover Girls Of The DC Universe,…
… What made the most impression was the blood. He was covered in it. And Jo knew — in that moment, with that single glance and the flash of awareness that ran beside it — he was dying. She started to scream, but even as she took the breath, the man collapsed against her, the…
Okay, if you like Red Sonja, then this might be quite a bargain. The first 18 issues from Dynamic Forces in an over-sized TPB for $30. Michael Oeming, Mike Carey, J.T. Krul, Mel Rubi, Pablo Marcos, Lee Moder etc. And all the covers that some people go and pay a premium for by Alex Ross,…

From Phonogram #6… And from The Heat, Kieron Gillen’s upcoming series from Avatar; 1.2 And we’re on a man, who’s just climbed over the ridge of a hill and descending the other side towards us. We’re close enough so we can’t see much of his surroundings. He’s heading down what appear to be metallic steps….
From Grimm Fairy Tales’ Dante’s Inferno, due in April from Zenescope. The pencils to the cover by Joe Benitez
An internal page from Chase Variant One Shot (Is All I Need) shipping from Image this February, by me, Saverio Tenuta and Bagwell. This is one of Bagwell’s pages. And in a complete switch in tone, here’s the first script page from the first issue of planned The Many Murders of Miss Cranbourne, by me…
This is your very first glimpse at an image from the new graphic novel from Alan Moore and Jacen Burrows – Neonomicon – to be published by Avatar later next year. I don’t know about you but I’m very much feeling the spirit of Thanksgiving. Wooooo! And Alan Moore’s Dodgem Logic website has…
Fine artist Phil Frost. NASCAR driver Kasey Kayne. Fashion guru Dr Romanelli. Writer Bryan Hill. Artwork Imaginary Friends Studios. Title… next year.
Antony Johnston says; I’m thankful for WASTELAND artist Christopher Mitten, because he produces awesome pages that could have been ripped straight from my own brain. Like this:
First, a page from the long awaited fourth issue of Si Spurrier and Frazer Irving’s Gutsville. And two pages of script from Si Spurrier’s new, unnamed Avatar title, the artwork he described as “boyohboyohboy does it look the Badger’s Balls.” PAGE ONE Panel 1: Ext. London’s NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM. A drizzly, miserable day. 1. Caption: Listen: 2. Caption:…
From Tony Lee and Stefano Martino (Doctor Who: The Forgotten, Where Evils Dare) comes… something And below is a concept design by Federico Combi of a Batavian soldier, for The Wall, a new graphic novel by Tony Lee and Stuart Eve, out from Markosia next year telling twenty years of the life of a Roman…
Below you’ll see a photo of a poster, hanging on a bus shelter. It was taken by Little Bleeder Ian, who wondered: I don’t know if this is genuine viral marketing or just a bunch of students. You can see a #believeinsherlock hashtag on the bottom right hand corner. I went to Twitter and searched…
The above is a commission by Frank Miller, recreating the splash page from The Dark Knight, below, for one Felix Lu. Such a detailed commission from Miller, it would be quite a rarity these days and rather expensive. Albeit not quite as expensive as buying the original art, recently selling for almost half a million…
Here’s an orderly and dependable plot blurb for The Amazing Spider-Man, as issued by Sony and piling up across the net (and in my inbox) like wildfire right now. There may not be any bombshells in here, but the strands come together pretty clearly. You know – like a web. The Amazing Spider-Man is the…
The last time I remember reading a Legend Of Zelda comic was back in the nineties, from Valiant Comics before they decided to move into superheroes. There’s were also a few manga books tied into specific game releases but no US licenced comics for quite some time. This could change if Joe Madueira gets his…
He’s done gangbusters for DC Comics, taking C-list character Animal Man, whose return to the DC Universe from DC Vertigo had been lacklustre at best, and turned him into a surprise critical and commercial hit as part of the DC New 52. So it’s only natural that DC might tap him for any other bright…
I would assume that the success of The Lord of the Rings and the huge interest in The Hobbit, not to mention the extraordinary, eight-film success of the Harry Potter series, would encourage Warner Bros. to look seriously into all of their similar options, but the studio has not to move ahead with a long-developing…
