Kieron Gillen And Jamie McKelvie Promote Their Comic Without A Name (UPDATE)
Being handed out by Jamie McKelvie and Kieron Gillen outside Orbital Comics last night, before everyone went to the pub. Followed by an entertaining evening of me saying "Young Avengers" occasionally and them both saying "I don't know what you're talking about, Richard." I was wearing my Misfits T-shirt Only to discover at the bar was an[...]

At NYCC, Marvel will probably announce this new Young Avengers series from Phonogram creators Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie.

So how did we do? In June, Bleeding Cool ran a checklist of rumours we'd heard about Marvel NOW! Including that it would be called Marvel NOW! Let's see
Kieron Gillen And Greg Land Launch Invincible Iron Man For Marvel Now! (RWIYOTAAPJ)
(That's "Respectfully We Informed You Of This Event At An Earlier Juncture", obviously) Are the Uncanny X-Men team of Kieron Gillen and Greg Land really working on Robert Kirkman's Invincible for Marvel, as this image seems to suggest?

Kieron Gillen's Avengers Vs X-Men: Consequences
A week or so ago, I heard mention of a new big X-Men book with a different creative team each week, first issue written by Kieron Gillen, the second by Jason Aaron, but I wasn't sure enough on the source, so I put it on the back burner. Well, this is possibly what it was referring[...]
Those Introductions From Journey Into Mystery
At Bleeding Cool, we rather like the Kieron Gillen run on Journey Into Mystery Going as far as to say it's one of the best ongoing MarvelU or DCU books on the stands But dagnabbit, if one of the things we like most isn't the "last week on Buffy The Vampire Slayer" introductions to each[...]
Marvelman Comes To Avengers Vs X-Men?
Kieron Gillen has said that his run on Uncanny X-Men has all been about Avengers Vs X-Men and here's where all those Sinister scenes pay off. We start with a Dostoevsky parody, before we see Sinister's own parody of his own Victoriana-but-not-steampunk London That also delves into 1984 and the Matrix trilogy as it all plays[...]
Antarctic Steampunk Girls Become Summer Girls – And More Ch-Ch-Changes
Which has a totally different vibe… and certainly less of those long flowing dresses. The backup story in Action Comics #11 will no longer be by Brad Walker, but will now features art by CAFU. While Steve Pugh is no longer drawing Animal Man #11, replaced by Alberto Ponticelli & Wayne Faucher. Matt Fraction tweeted that Journey Into[...]
How Kieron Gillen Made A Little More Sense Of Avengers Vs X-Men #5 (SPOILERS)
And lets us know that, Phoenix-style, if you can't be with the ones you acolyte, you acolyte the ones you're with. Kieron Gillen did a trick like this during Siege, making sense of some of the Loki stuff that, frankly, didn't make sense in the original He's basically Marvel's fix-it man, a walking No-Prize He will[...]
Iron Man From Gillen And Land To Follow Avengers Vs X-Men?
Could an island off the coast not be enough of a separation from the rest of humanity? Might they need to wander the galaxy instead? And I also heard yesterday that one of therelaunched, if not rebooted books, will be Iron Man, with the current hit creative team of Uncanny X-Men, Kieron Gillen and Greg Land,[...]
Kapow 2012: Kieron Gillen And The £10.70 Glass Of Wine
I didn't. Anyway, here is the writer of Uncanny X-Men, Kieron Gillen, who has just bought a glass of red wine at the Hilton hotel bar, next door to Kapow, and he is trying to get anyone who will listen to guess how much his normal, standard glass of red wine cost here No one comes[...]

At Kapow in London, during the Avengers Vs X-Men panel with Kieron Gillen, CB Cebulski and Joe Quesada, they showed off some upcoming Avengers Vs X-Men pages… one of which seems to show a certain Professor X returning for issue 6… We also got a teaser that Illyana and Black Widow will star in an Augmented[...]
Speculator Corner: Phonogram
Well it's taken long enough. But with the third and final volume of Phonogram being announced for later this year, Immaterial Girl, it seems there's been
Kieron Gillen Tells Us How Journey Into Mystery Is Basically Sandman. A Bit.
I've actually had discussions with people at Marvel about why they should collect it in a big leather volume, specifically for that market. Kieron Gillen has just talked to Multiversity at length about Journey Into Mystery, why he writes the stories he does and to what end, how the upcoming New Mutants crossover Exiled will work,[...]
The Return Of Phonogram By Kieron Gillen, Jamie McKelvie And Matt Wilson
Man, oh man, oh man. It is one of my favourite comic books ever. Not enough people bought it to make it a going concern at Image Comics, but for those who did, it was  life changing, or life affirming, or just a really really good comic book that they wanted to tell everyone about. And at Image[...]
Exiled – A New Crossover From Marvel (UPDATED)
Exiled is a new comic book coming out from Marvel in May in the jetstream of the Avengers Vs X-Men crossover. I understand it's written by Kieron Gillen and drawn by his Dark Reign: The Cabal artistic partner Carmine Di Giandomenico. Odds are it might be the subject of one of these Marvel Live Blogs that are[...]
Is Journey Into Mystery "Sandman Done Right"?
But can there be any other challengers? It seems inherent at Marvel, creating crass, brassy, bold superhero action while DC were able to create more literary affairs that found a new audience, new appeal and new credibility for both the company and for the medium. But that was then. Marvel have already acclaimed Daredevil as their best new[...]
Kieron Gillen, Jim Shooter, and Comic Accessibility
In two completely unrelated blog posts today, Kieron Gillen and Jim Shooter looked at the issue of accessibility in comics today First up, Gillen, from his blog earlier today, in discussing accessibility as it related to Uncanny X-Men, Volume II, #1: … {T}he concept of accessibility is in mainstream American comics {is different} than any other[...]
Join The Comics Celebrities On Ashes And Win Big
Which means even if you don't like the book, you'll be able to flip it on eBay. Or you can choose a separate full colour commission from Jimmy – a rare thing since he doesn't do commissions or sell his art. And if that's not enough, you might also be drawn by being in good company… other[...]
Thinking Only Of Thought Bubble
Steve Wacker, despite the efforts of a driver who got lost, managed to get to the airport before his flight took off.  Kieron Gillen has his DJ set all worked out And Gail Simone has been round the Leeds City Centre shops looking for a Dalek. It can only be the launch of what many consider[...]
