Last batch of WOLVERINE links for now, promise:

I was interviewed on Secret Identity last week, talking mainly about Wolvie, but also WASTELAND #25 and (briefly) DEAD SPACE: EXTRACTION. I always enjoy chatting to the guys at SI, so this is probably the most relaxed interview you’ll hear me do for a while.

Bookgasm reviewed PRODIGAL SON and gave it a big thumbs up. Their review features the words “Horde of Ninjas”, which is reason enough to give it a read.

Finally, Newsarama did a fairly in-depth WOLVERINE interview with both me and Wilson Tortosa, the book’s artist. Which makes a nice change.

 

Volume 1 of WOLVERINE: PRODIGAL SON goes on sale today, and is available from all good comic and book stores. Click here for order codes.

In case you’ve been living under a rock for the past few weeks, allow me to briefly reiterate that this is a shōnen manga reinvention of the character, completely divorced from the Marvel universe. No prior knowledge of the character, the X-Men, or any other Marvel book, is required to read and enjoy PRODIGAL SON. Promise.

Comixology recently interviewed me about the book, and the episode is now live; click here to listen or download.

Comic Book Bin reviewed the book and said it’s “as good as the now-classic, 1982 Chris Claremont-Frank Miller Wolverine miniseries”, awarding it an A grade. High praise indeed.

And if none of that convinces you, judge for yourself; the entire first chapter is available to read online, exclusive to MySpace Comics.

Snikt!

 

More pre-launch WOLVERINE news; there’s a very complimentary review of Volume 1 up on Secret Identity’s site (no permalink, but you can’t miss it as you scroll down), and a brief piece on Static Multimedia with some thoughts on the book from myself and Wilson.

(The Q&A is PR-supplied, so you’ll see the same piece crop up in different places over the next couple of weeks, but rest assured Wilson and I wrote the answers ourselves, and we weren’t censored.)
