This is it, folks – the secret of the new Catwoman is revealed, along with the identity of the mystery killer. Gotham City remains under siege as Terry McGinnis and Bruce Wayne find themselves at odds. Not great timing, especially with Batman finding himself at odds with a vengeance-crazed villain. All thanks to writer Adam Beechen and artist Ryan Benjamin.
We’ve teased this creative team a few times here already, but now’s your chance to get a handful of artist Nic Klein’s final pages, penned by the writing team of Azzarello and Brandon.
The US government has offered Doc and his men a deal: run a secret mission in the war-ravaged, blockaded ruins of the Middle East, and they’ll wipe the slate clean of the frame-up job that the Secretary of State ran on them. Doc Savage is nobody’s errand boy – but if the mission involves saving the life of one of his former compatriots, he might just have to cut a deal with the men who set him up. Click below for a first look at the issue.
Knight and Squire are a perfect example of what makes DC great. Introduced as a duo in the 1950s but revitalized by Grant Morrison in the late 1990s, they are every inch a British Batman and Robin. But beyond the similarities between the two teams, we felt Knight and Squire had a lot of unique attributes that we should explore, not the least of which is their geographic location and heritage. So when approaching the limited series, we wanted to show just how British this British Dynamic Duo could be! Paul Cornell has more than delivered, with scripts that are entertaining, fun, action-packed, and of course, very British, much to my occasional bewilderment. I received the first script only to have to respond, “Could you please translate some of this slang for me?” The resulting document started off, “Not safe for work. Which is a pity, considering you’re at work,” and the rest made me laugh until I cried. It then made its way around the DC offices rather quickly.
It’s thanks to Paul’s sense of humor that not only are the stories contained within the Knight and Squire limited series great, but also you’ll be seeing an additional text page at the end of every issue explaining certain…Britishisms…that he uses. We wanted to make sure the issues were fun and approachable for fans from anywhere, without losing any of the flavor of Knight and Squire. I don’t think it’s too bold a statement to say that when reading an issue of Knight and Squire, you feel as though you’re a part of their community, even if you don’t get all the jokes (and if you really want to know, you can check out the last page for help!).
This quest for maintaining the integrity of the characters and their culture went even further than Paul’s hilarious and entertaining scripts. We searched high and low for exactly the right artist, and we found him in Jimmy Broxton. His art is dynamic and detailed while working perfectly with the tone of Paul’s scripts. Add in main series covers by Yanick Paquette and Michel Lacombe, and it’s a grand slam. But wait! What’s this art here, you ask? Well, that would be the pencils of the beautiful variant cover for issue 1, by the awesome Billy Tucci. Now that’s aces.
The new Anarky has his own version of Red Robin’s Hit List! Ulysses Armstrong has made a record of Gotham City teens who could be Red Robin – and he’s murdering them one by one. With an incapacitated Tim Drake crossed off his list, can Red Robin stop Anarky before the villain attacks his next target? And with the deaths of innocents weighing on his conscience, how far will Red Robin go to cross Anarky off his own Hit List? Only Fabian Nicieza and Marcus To know.
Not long ago, we showed some fairly intense pages from the latest issue of Grant Morrison’s BATMAN AND ROBIN, with art by Frazer Irving. Well, now we’ve got a few of those pages all lettered up, revealing more secrets about the issue – and the Joker’s involvement. Click below for more.
In ACTION COMICS #893, Lex Luthor will be dealing with not just one guest star, but two. First up we have Gorilla Grodd, the menacing giant and the latest villain to cross paths with Lex during his quest for power. The next? None other than veteran artist Sean Chen.
Stepping in to give regular artist Pete Woods a breather, Chen brings his versatile hand to the Superman books in a few short weeks, as Lex crosses paths with the maniacal Grodd. We’ve got a few images to show off, below. But be warned – it’s not for the squeamish.
