13th May 2011 / Interviews / Shang-Chi
Finally, the news on my next Marvel series is out: I’m writing a three-part Shang-Chi series, THE DEADLY HANDS OF KUNG FU, tying into the big Spider-Island event this summer.
It’s a martial arts gothic mystery, and so I couldn’t ask for a better artist; Sebastián Fiumara, whom some of you will remember from his incredible work on our adaptation of Alan Moore’s THE HYPOTHETICAL LIZARD. Seba and I kept in touch, hoping to work together again, and now here we are. At Marvel, doing a kung fu action book.
Funny how things turn out.
Anyway, I believe DEADLY HANDS #1 launches in August, so I’ll post again when I have pre-order details. For now, if you want to read more about the series (and why Iron Fist and the Bride of Nine Spiders are on the cover!) then go read this interview at CBR.

Yikes. Just noticed that I haven’t posted here in over a month. The fact that I hadn’t even realised says all you need to know, really — I’ve had my head down, busy as hell and loving it.
In the past month I’ve started two new miniseries for Marvel (one is due to be announced at the end of next week, I’ll post again then); written an issue of WASTELAND (new issue coming soon, promise!); delivered a version of my Comics to Consoles talk at Black Rock Studios (went well); started some more work on Binary Domain (Nagoshi-san isn’t kidding about how much dialogue the game has); been out to Slovenia (lovely place); worked on concept and narrative for a couple of new games; and scripted a bunch of lines for a sports/exercise game.
Of course, the problem as it relates to blogging is that 99% of this stuff I can’t talk about yet. But that should change in the months to come. And the Marvel stuff, in particular, should make people who enjoyed my previous work for them pretty happy.
