13th March 2010 / Daredevil
OK, so it seems I’m now able to talk about one of the things I mentioned in yesterday’s post. It’s probably the least surprising of them all, to be honest… Which is to say, I’m sticking around to co-write another arc of DAREDEVIL with Andy Diggle.
The arc will cover issues #508-512, and is called “In The Shadows”. I can’t say any more than that, but I’m pretty sure dedicated fans will like it…
15th February 2010 / On Sale / Daredevil
DAREDEVIL #505, the first issue of “Left Hand Path” and my first as co-writer with Andy Diggle, goes on sale this week.
Although a superhero book isn’t exactly my usual fare, I hope that if you enjoy my other stuff, you’ll like this one too — unlike the HAWKEYE issue, I’m actively involved in the plotting of this arc, and it’s a fair reflection of both mine and Andy’s styles and sensibilities. Which is as it should be, of course. I’m especially intrigued to see how well it goes down with regular DD readers.
The Man Without Fear visits the Land of The Rising Sun! As the new leader of The Hand, Matt Murdock seeks to unite its five continental regions behind his banner and lead the organization to a new future — but when all five “fingers” of The Hand form its mighty fist, you’ll be surprised at who gets hit first!
You can check out a six-page preview at Comic Book Resources.
The issue is $2.99, the order code is DEC090490, and it’s on sale in all the usual places.
[ADDENDUM: It would appear that someone’s let the cat out of the bag, and my first solo-written DD book, a one-shot titled DAREDEVIL: CAGE MATCH, has been announced. UPDATE: The official solicits have now been released. Details here… and an amusing discussion on Cage’s ‘tiara’ here.]
18th December 2009 / Dead Space / Wasteland / Wolverine / Interviews / Cold City / Daredevil
Quick round-up before the holidays…
(I’ll do a proper year in review post soon, but may not have time before the new year.)
Comic Book Resources interviewed me recently about WASTELAND, DAREDEVIL and COLD CITY. You can read it here.
WOLVERINE: PRODIGAL SON, which was shortlisted in the Texas Library Association’s Maverick YA reading recommendations, made the final list. See the full thing here.
The lovely and generous Jeff VanderMeer talks about Volume 1 of the WASTELAND Apocalyptic Edition hardback on Amazon today, with an excerpt from his introduction to the book. Read it here.
DEAD SPACE 2 has been officially announced, and a lot of people have asked me if I’m on board once more. Sadly, no, I won’t be writing this game. It hopefully won’t be my last excursion into the Dead Space universe, though…
That’s all I can talk about for now, but as always there’s a whole host of stuff bubbling under right now. Happy holidays, everyone, and remember; Santa cannot be trusted.
17th November 2009 / Wasteland / Appearances / Daredevil
As previously mentioned, I’m attending Thought Bubble in Leeds this Saturday. If you don’t know it, TB is fast becoming one of the premier comic conventions in Britain — it’s comics-focused, creator-friendly, and very well organised.
You can view the full programme here (the one-day con is part of a larger festival over three days), but here’s the relevant info for me:
Two other brief snippets of news today: First, there’s a very nice review of WASTELAND up at sci-fi site io9.com.
Second, as you may have already heard, I’m co-writing DAREDEVIL #505-507 (“Left Hand Path”) with Andy Diggle. We’ve wanted to work together on something for a long time, and now we finally have the chance. More on that soon, no doubt.
