Well. You don’t see these very often. An original page of Joe Simon and Jack Kirby-credited Captain America art, from issue 6, dated from 1941. By this time they had the studio system in full swing, so it may not actually be Jack Kirby work here, or at least not all of it. But this…
Bleeding Cool’s Nev Coleman there with Julia Scheele… Couldn’t make it to the Toronto Comic Arts Festival? Sickened by all the interesting guests they had there?

As of Friday morning, there were plenty of issues of M.Rex, the 2003 Image comic book that listed three isues (two if you don’t count the preview) on eBay. All of them listed from around 99 cents. And not selling. There hadn’t been a sale for at least a month, Then Bleeding Cool pointed out…

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…

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…
