At the Garth Ennis/Dynamite Spotlight Panel at Baltimore Comic Con yesterday, Garth Ennis spent most of the time… talking about Avatar comics it seems. And thanks to Bleeding Cool Editor-In-Chief Hannah Means-Shannon, we were able to hear one scoop in particular. That X-Men/Iron Man writer Kieron Gillen would be writing the ongoing Crossed Badlands series next year,[...]

But it's time for retailers to place their final orders for The Wicked + The Divine #4 by Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie today So, if you want a copy, and with such Image titles, it's never guaranteed hat your retailer iwill order enough, do let them know.

Two issues by regular series writer Mike Costa, and two "Book Of Acts" specials titled "Alpha" and "Omega" with rather splendid guest stars: Alan Moore, Kieron Gillen, Si Spurrier and Justin Jordan, all regular Avatarites. All who have created remarkably different takes. Mike Costa takes God's rival, now supposedly free, dealing with the limits of that freedom[...]

And Superman/ Wonder Woman wins best selfie of the week. God is Dead: Omega didn't have Alan Moore in it like last week's Alpha, but Kieron Gillen's Satan story was sick The Walking Dead had a possible major turning point for the series at the end of this issue, but that's all I'm going to say[...]

Respectfully, Rich told you of this at a previous juncture. I think I'm going to call that a "pre-exclusive" from now on, and imagine a Minority

To be announced at or before San Diego Comic Con. I presume this is a new monthly Marvel comic book starring the now-revealed sister of Thor and Loki, Angela, who was brought up heaven by the angels after the War on Asgard, or similar retcon. Angela, written by Kieron Gillen and Marguerite Bennett. But it could, I suppose be[...]

And thankfully writer Kieron Gillen has said most of it right here Some things I'm glad I got, lots I didn't and have necessitated a re-read Something I remember him also saying once, was about how people interpreted his work and as long as he it wasn't directly opposed to, you know, the facts, he[...]

They are joined by Kieron Gillen with German Nobile and Justin Jordan with German Erramouspe Gillen creates a story that's demonstrably dark and twisted, exploring the life and times of an arch demon in Hell coping with the death of God, whereas Justin Jordan weaves a tale of loss and isolation when the influence of[...]

They also had a launch party for the comic, with attendees from comic books (Mark Buckingham and Al Ewing) and Hollywood (Felicia Day)[...]

Simon Spurrier shared his rather deep and profane insights into creating our own gods and how to swear a fight dead in its tracks for his contributions to "Alpha", and Kieron Gillen pulled back the curtain on devilish heroes and the vast indifference of hell in the grand scheme of things on "Omega". Justin Jordan (Luther[...]

So far, Bleeding Cool has brought you the announcement that Alan Moore has written a Glycon-based story for God is Dead: Book of Acts 'Alpha', alongside an interview with Mike Costa about his masterplan for the two-parter 'Alpha' and 'Omega', and a virally-funny interview with Simon Spurrier about his story 'Pitter Patter', also in 'Alpha'. [...]

As ever, Amazon listings are subject to change and can often be inaccurate. So know that going in. But at least this gives us an idea of some of the big

And why would you? "In Six-Gun Gorilla is an explosion of pulp and joy, but there's more in its twelve metafictional chambers than the imagination and vision of two fine creators working at the top of their game."  – Kieron Gillen. The trade paperback is out from June 18th If you're the kind of person who reads[...]

@gregpak @McKelvie The first pitch I sent to Marvel actually was a Dazzler mini, fearfully. — Kieron Gillen (@kierongillen) May 6, 2014 Kieron Gillen just posted it on Tumblr, (as well as a most entertaining preamble) DAZZLER: BIG IN ATTILAN (In a paragraph, as you're busy, like.) Her career in the doldrums and critically savaged, Alison Blaire gets a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity[...]

But have they ever written a comic book? Max Brooks, who will have the biggest queues, brought out by World War Z, to sign his new series Extinction Parade and graphic novel Harlem Hellfighters. Kieron Gillen (who sounds quite a bit like Karen Gillan) will have the queue most dominated by female Loki cosplayers, signing Uber (but you[...]

Iron Man" series that ties into "Original Sin." While Mark [Waid] and Kieron [Gillen] know how that story ends, and know what they're teeing up for the future, we spent a bit of time going over the possibilities with the rest of the guys in the room. Emphasis on guys? Based on Twitter, it appears much of the[...]

But like the more recent Kieron Gillen run on the Iron Man comics, the Captain is frequently seen in the older comics (as collected by Dark Horse in their second volume) to go in rockets into space, using his pilot skills to handle outer-lunar travel as easily as he might take a light aircraft jaunt[...]

It didn't feature anything from the film at all, but it set the tone so perfectly. Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie did something similar for Phonogram: The Singles Club as well, an original one page strip that advertised the comic so very effectively One of the better ads for comics I've seen. And now they're doing it[...]
