18th February 2011 / Daredevil / On Sale
So apparently, the DAREDEVIL: SHADOWLAND collection went on sale this week. I haven’t seen a copy yet myself, but I’m assured it’s out there.
It’s a 140pp “premier hardcover”, whatever that means, and it collects DAREDEVIL #508-512, plus the epilogue SHADOWLAND: AFTER THE FALL. In other words, it contains everything you need to read alongside the main Shadowland event itself, right up to the end of the ongoing DD title.
If you’re wondering about a collection of BLOOD ON THE STREETS, that’s due at some point next month. Perhaps this time I might even remember to mention it before it hits the shelves…
16th February 2011 / Interviews
Good lord, but that’s a terrible pun. Anyway.
— Phil Lunt interviewed me for issue #134 of Hub Magazine, a free SF zine that also features new fiction. it’s a good, long interview, and you can download the PDF here.
— Phil Hampton, meanwhile, has set up The Comic Academy, aimed at helping aspiring comic creators get into the industry. Part of that consists of a number of interviews with pros, talking about how they broke in to comics; what advice they have for people starting out; tips, tricks, insights, all the usual malarky. And, yes, I’m one of the pros featured.
Now, they’re running a special launch offer. If you go to the “Telesummit” page, you can either pay a fee to get unlimited access to all the Academy’s materials now and forever… or you can just sign up and wait a little while, because each of the interviews (including mine) will soon be made available for free, but only for a certain amount of time (48 hours, I think). Mine goes live on February 28th.
That link to the “Telesummit” page, by the way, is an affiliate link; if you use it to reach the site, then place an order, a certain amount of the fee is divvied up and ostensibly given to me.
I say ostensibly, because I’ve requested that the Academy takes anything due to me and gives it to the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund instead. So not only are you getting something for your cash, but you’re also helping fund a very important charity. Everybody wins, as they say.
8th February 2011 / Interviews / On Sale / Wasteland
Issue #30 of WASTELAND goes on sale this week. This is where the tale of Golden Voice’s true role in the Newbegin rebellion is told, and unlike the other issues in this arc, it’s a two-part story, ending in #31. Here’s the solicit text:
The “Enemy Within” story arc continues! Our focus turns at last to Golden Voice — renowned Sun-Singer and holy man, turned violent revolutionary! Marcus’ decision to conscript Sunners into the city Watch forces Golden Voice’s hand, and even his own people aren’t sure about his new tactics. Can he bring them to freedom? Or is the rebellion doomed?
…Which says it all, really. You can’t miss this one.
The order code is SEP101093, and it’s on sale from good comic stores everywhere. There’s a 5-page preview here.
In other news, Christine from the excellent DAREDEVIL fan site The Other Murdock Papers recently interviewed me about DD, fandom, and working for Marvel. The first part is now live, and you can read it here.
