UPDATES
Happy New Year!
Major updates throughout the site this month, so feel free to look around… and a big welcome aboard to new webmaster Michael Hutchison!
Work continues apace on a variety of projects, a few of which are being released as I write this. See PREVIEWS for the updated skinny on current projects.
In the meantime, I’ve got quite a few announcements to make, though they’ll likely trickle out one-or-two at a time in the coming months.
Here’s just a few…
BATMAN BEGINS AGAIN
I’m presently working hard on scripting the comics adaptation of what is sure to be one of this summer’s biggest releases: BATMAN BEGINS! Joining me for this 64-page prestige format comic book from DC Comics is ace artist Killian Plunkett.
Below is a preliminary cover for DK's BATMAN BEGINS: THE VISUAL GUIDE, which I'm also writing. Pre-order it now from Amazon.com!
Check in on the Message Board from time-to-time for more news as we get closer to the film’s release date!
PENNYWORTH… ALFRED PENNYWORTH
By the time this sees print, I’ll be finishing up an Alfred Pennyworth two-parter (eight pages each) slated for the back-up feature in DC Comics’ DETECTIVE COMICS #807-808. The story chronicles a bit of “work history” for Alfie before he came to be employed by the Wayne Family of Gotham City, and it’s lovingly illustrated by the great Jeff Parker (The Interman).
ULTIMATE UPDATE
Finally, Amazon.com is taking pre-orders for the updated edition of Dorling Kindersley’s BATMAN: THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO THE DARK KNIGHT, featuring a brand-new cover by comics superstar Jim Lee! Here’s a sneak peak!
IN THE NEXT UPDATE:
Sonuva… VULCAN, that is.
