Of Mystery and Macabre: the Guy Davis Art Exhibition

On February 27, Artoriginals put on an art show featuring master storyteller Guy Davis. I’ve long been a fan of Guy’s deceptively simple art style, since I picked up the first collection of Sandman Mystery Theatre.
Davis has long been known as one of the fastest artists in the industry; and when you look at his [...]

Matt Kindt’s Revolver

I’ve been salivating at the mouth waiting for more word on “Revolver,” an original graphic novel coming this July from “3 Story: The Secret History of the Giant Man” creator Matt Kindt. Matt Kindt is a wonderkind of a creator. His storytelling uses all the tricks one would absorb from studying Will Eisner’s The Spirit [...]

Art Porn: Michael Cho’s Darkseid

Michael Cho is one of Comicbookdaily’s favourite artists. His Holiday Season card made us all weep tears of christmas joy, and his cover to Don Delillo’s White Noise made one of our favourite books even more awesome. Well, this time he’s done it again, this time drawing up a beautiful picture of the once named [...]

Just Imagine: Frank Miller’s Superman and Wonder Woman

It’s a pretty slow news day, so I’ve been doing some trolling around looking for anything new and exciting. In saying that, consider this one of those ideas that never happened, and maybe the world is sadder for it.. maybe not. Depends on which Frank Miller would have written it.
It seems like back in the [...]

David Finch: DC Exclusive

David Finch is known for many things, among them: crosshatching and Marvel Comics.
Well, as of this morning it was announced that Finch is a DC exclusive artist. Which is pretty interesting. The last time an artist who was firmly entrenched in my mind as a Marvel artists, it was Mark Bagley, and I still get [...]

Art Porn: Michael Cho’s Christmas Card

[via Michael Cho's Blog]

Here’s my holiday card for all of you who’ve dropped by to check out my blog this year. May you all have a wonderful season, and a bright start to 2010. And if you’re a freelancer like me, I sincerely wish you some extended time off with no last minute deadlines over [...]

Marvel Comics is Girl Comics!

The Beat just broke the news of Marvel’s newest line: Girl Comic.

In light of some of the scathing commentary regarding the anti-female vibe that seems to permeate the Marvel titles, it seems funny that Marvel would come out with this comic… but hey, any comic that features (among others)  Kathryn Immonen, Marjorie Liu, Louise Simonson, [...]

Alan Moore launches off his new fanzine with a song!

Okay comic fans, we know Alan Moore for his contributions to comics with works like Watchmen, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and many more. But did you know that Alan Moore has launched a brand new underground magazine called Dodgem Logic from his hometown of Hampton? It’s apparently an underground culture magazine that features according to [...]

Von Allen and the Road to God Knows…

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada (November 21, 2009) – Mental illness remains one of Western society’s greatest taboos.  Those who suffer from various mental health disorders often suffer in silence, with very little support from society.  Family members and other loved ones of those afflicted also suffer and are often forced to understand and cope alone.  The [...]

As [...]

Millar and McNiven – What’s Next?

So while nothing is definitely known just yet. It seems like we have more to look forward to from the quite-often-really-late-but-it’s-okay-because-his-artwork-is-so-beautiful-that-no-one-really-wants-to-complain Steve McNiven and some british writer named Mark Millar.
While nothing has been announced on this yet – outside of the name (Nemesis) and the creative team – I’m sure it’s not going to stop [...]
