Always love it when this shit shows up. No fear, no arrows, no bullshit. If dudes don't know how to read comics yet, Frank Quitely is here to teach y'all one page at a time
 
Man, I had some great reading today.

I finished The Immortal Iron Fist Complete Collection Vol. 1 today, that was fantastic. Great artwork, great writing, great world-building, just loved it.

I also read the Throne of Atlantis storyline from Justice League and Aquaman, and yeah, I think I'm an Aquaman fan for life now.

Found some new previews that I don't think I've seen posted in here yet.


Spider-Woman #1 by Hopeless and Land.
So conflicted about this because I've liked both Avengers Arena and Avengers Undercover by Dennis but fuck Greg Land. AND to do this to my poor Jessica Drew, so frustrating :(

Wonder Woman #36 by Meredith and David Finch
I have less exposure to their work, so I feel like I can go into the issue with a more open mind.

"Has blank covers, will buy" continues for me. Plus Wonder Woman is still a 2.99 book somehow so 2.54 isn't bad for extra blanks.

Just inject that straight into my veins please.

I know it's just people walking down stairs, but everything about that second page is masterful and impressive and is making me more excited than I initially was.

Also, Morrison is pretty polite for not answering that EW question with "Have ye fuckers not seen what Quitely and I have done for the past 2 damn decades?"
 
Got my IST order!

Preacher Book 2
Seven Soldiers of Victory Book 1-2

Thinking back on Preacher 1-12, about the nature of the book and how crude it is sometimes, I don't think I would have appreciated this book as much if I read this when I was younger. I'm kind of glad I waited so long to read it and happy to see people in this thread continue to praise and recommend it.

READ IT
 
This fuckin guy...
my name is ed really killed it on this commission i had him do for me.
He took all my ides and got exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks again mang

Thanks Music Man. I'm glad I was able to get your ideas out the way you wanted them!

That is some beautiful stuff!!!
That is fantastic.
That is beautiful!
Very cool
Thank y'all very much guys. Always nice to have work appreciated.

Christ, this is gorgeous. I'd love to put it on my wall.
I'm actually thinking of making a print run of the piece. If you're interested, I can let you know when I get them done?

Yeah Ed is legit. He sends business cards and everything. Pretty sure he's just one step below collaborating with Morrison at this point.
Hehe a step below collaborating with Christopher Morrison maybe
I just noticed I'm not listed on comicbookdb.com
I really need to get on a book of note soon haha

Iron Fist is probably the first comic to make me feel like I was reading best martial arts film of all time. If that makes sense

This comment disappoints me.

Quitely is love, Quitely is life.
LOL that's not what I meant but now that I reread it, I can see how it came off that way. I meant it as, I know it was hyped because Quitely is drawing it, but the actual content and direction Grant is taking the issue seems good too.

I've already talked about how I don't mind Quitelys work, and actually love a lot of the stuff both him and Grant have done together. We3 and All Star Superman are definitely big standouts to me.
 
I might as well be. I'm high on the thought of Morrison & Quitely teaming up for their next All Star Superman on Wednesday.

Edit: actually I might just be high. It's all good though.

Time to get high on the fact that the iZombie statue is on Diamond's list for next week.

When can one request a comission?
 
I thought so. But what about the other 4 1/2 years?

Quitely's been working on Multiversity brah...like, they announced Morrison/Quitely Pax Americana back in 2011 or some shit. They had to show some pencil pages at Morrisoncon 2012 just to let people know it still existed, nigga is just hella slow

also Juipter's Legacy and a bunch of covers

No, one of the reasons Multiversity has taken so long is actually because Quitely has been working on it for a really long time. (I mean there are other things too, Morrison being busy, Jim Lee drawing an issue but Quitely has had the script for years)

Quitely is one of the all time greatest at taking forever to draw something

You can probably count the artists that are slower than him on one hand.

Travis Charest is king of that shit. Even euro publishers kick him off books since he's too slow. To be fair, he might be the greatest artist ever.

I'm glad my favorite artists can knock that stuff out at a regular pace. Aja aside. But that dude has nothing on Quitely. It must be frustrating if you are a fan of his.

I had a dream last night that DC announced a Zatanna book and Amanda Conner was on it. I was deeply upset when I woke up. DC get on it. Me and Cheska will float the early sales for you.

That cover is amazing. Too bad the book reads like a bad episode of Mob Wives.
They're all bad. :(

<3 Becky Cloonan, tho.

The first issue felt like it was over way too fast. It felt like one third of an opening issue. I'm not sure I want to go back for more. Maybe I'll get the trade if I hear it turns out well.

I don't even know what mob wife's is or if that is a joke lol

Edit: can someone tell me if Babs is in Lego Batman 3?

Oh man is this actually happening?
