Let us also not forget that Brian Wood, who currently scripts the very successful ongoing Star Wars comic at Dark Horse, is also currently at Marvel For some reason I doubt he gets first dibs, even in the interest of a "smooth transfer" We'll all have to revisit this in 2015 to see what reality[...]
The Destruction Of The Death Star – A 9/11 Allegory?
Brian Wood shows us why Marvel should just hire him for their books and be done with it He fits the book like Dan Slott slots into Spider-Man, like Mark Waid wades into Daredevil And Brian Wood would do a great job on their Star Wars too. Like in this issue, with a young Empire graduate[...]

Brian Wood and Kris Anka's "Resurrection" teaser from Marvel yesterday has been revealed by CBR as the new arc on X-Men, Ghosts. But who is being resurrected? Not Generation X, though someone should and there is talk of it Not Jean Grey (though it was close, and hey, there's The Trial Of Jean Grey to consider)[...]
Could It Be… Generation X From Brian Wood And Kris Anka? (UPDATE)
This looks as if if might pertain to a certain story we ran suggesting Kris Anka was to join Brian Wood on X-Men… Unless it's something completely different "Resurrection" might be a too-easy play on Jean Grey and Phoenix Bit look at the colour scheme Remind you of… …at all? Plus from CBR's X-Position; txgohan is pining for[...]

We essentially see the world end from just off stage, as Mike and Phyl move from being crackpots, to field correspondents, to survivors, trying to make their way to literal and figurative higher ground.

This idea, of your only defense being how different you are to your enemy became one of the tenets of[...]

Mara And A Return To The Girls Comics Of My Youth
But in it all some kind of recognition for sporting prowess. Then those comics went away (although IPC are doing their best right now to revive them digitally).
