Four-Color Roots Part 1: The Toyetic Age (1985-1989)
Then as I got older, I discovered the comics… – Scott Snyder, from the Foreword to Batman: The World of the Dark Knight (2012) The first comic I remember reading – if I don't count a musty Mickey Mouse comic promoting energy conservation that sat, unwanted, in my grandparents' desk drawer – was Secret Wars #1[...]
DC Vertigo's Mark Doyle Is The New Batman Group Editor – For One Year (UPDATE)
But that's going to be true of many positions. Doyle was the editor at DC Comics who was most responsible, I'm told, for bringing Scott Snyder into the company And with Marts leaving for Marvel, it's become even more important at DC to keep Snyder happy. Which, I understand, he is Job done. UPDATE: I contacted DC Comics[...]
Signed Comics On eBay – Not Worth The Variant Covers They're Written On?
CGC has its own "signature series" to verify said autographs but often people have to go on trust. Scott Snyder doubts the veracity of this signature. But how far can you trust? I received complaints about this eBay seller, specialising in signed comics, as people doubted the veracity of the signed comics being sold at a premium[...]

The Future Batmen Of Detective Comics #27, Black Robin And All, Is DC New 52 Canon
Peter Tomasi gives us a Dark Knight-ish version with an elderly Bruce Wayne, close to the Batman Beyond version, commanding his troops, with his son Damian as The Batman – before slipping into the costume itself with this little homage… But by marrying different versions of characters, some dead, it indicates that this is an "imaginary[...]
DC Comics Cancels Frank Miller's Cover To Detective Comics #27
Can we expect DC Comics to add an extension to FOC in this title's case? And as Scott Snyder writes about his plans for Six Months Later, in the regular Batman title, DC Comics lets retailers know that, naturally due to the changes, Batman #28 will be made returnable… Originally it was going to be a[...]
Diving Deeper Into The Wake #5: An In-depth Discussion Of The Series So Far
Simply alluding to the particular comic anywhere within earshot of a comic shop or an online forum would always be met with the same raised eyebrows and perked interests as the issue quickly gained the unofficial title of "The one Scott Snyder kept mentioning at New York Comic Con." It is an accurate description Between the[...]

Interview: Rachel Deering Talks In the Dark, Crowdfunding and Horror
I don't really care for a lot of modern horror, but I did enjoy SEVERED by Scott Snyder, Locke & Key by Joe Hill, and most of what Mignola produces Modern stuff with classic sensibilities, I guess. Who's influenced your work in the field? Bruce Jones and Bernie Wrightson more than anyone Jenifer from CREEPY #63 is[...]

Spoiler Alert: Snyder Announces The Return of Stephanie Brown at NYCC (With Pics & More Info)
I could understand asking different people or asking different conventions, but asking the same people (John Cunningham, Scott Snyder, Kyle Higgins) a few hours later seemed strange I sarcastically liveblogged before the panel started "Stephanie Brown girl spotted by the microphone stand High chance we'll see 'obligatory Stephanie Brown question." My apologies, SBG. John Cunningham kicked off the[...]

Superman Unchained, Only Nine Issues Long? (UPDATE)
I'm working currently on [the nine-issue series] "Superman Unchained" with a writer named Scott Snyder. The square brackets indicate that this was said elsewhere in the interview but not in the actual paragraph quoted I suppose, the next question is… what comes next? After Europa that is… Could it be that WildCATS revival that Bleeding Cool[...]

Telling The Bigger Story In American Vampire Anthology
The book-ended stories written and drawn by series creators Scott Snyder and Rafael Albuquerque are simple and artful at pointing out the place of "stories" through the words of Skinner Street And whatever practical function the anthology may serve to keep readers hungry for more, or give them closure on the previous epoch of the[...]
