Film School Rejects presents 25 Things We Learned from the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse Commentary. Here are three of my favorites…
2. We see the number 42 early on — and will see it in the film again — and it’s a reference to Miles Morales’ (Shameik Moore) origin story involving a lottery that landed him at his elite prep school. It was also Jackie Robinson’s jersey number, but “it has nothing to do with Douglas Adams.”
9. It was Ramsay’s idea to hold off on the visual comic language — word bubbles, panels, etc. — until Miles is bitten by the spider.
“If you hit pause anytime a train goes, because everybody wanted to animate Stan [Lee], he’s in almost every single train.”

What we have today is a gallery of Frank Miller’s Daredevil covers courtesy of PencilInk. Man, that was a glorious run of well-written, well drawn stories. Miller of course did the writing and pencils and Klaus Janson provided the inks.
If you click over to PencilInk you can click on each cover to see a larger version as well as a summary of the issue.

Going to the Chapel is a new four issue mini-series written by David Pepose, with art by Gavin Guidry, colors by Liz Kramer, and letters by Ariana Maher. Pepose describes the series as…
…Die Hard meets Kill Bill meets 3000 Miles to Graceland.
If that’s not enough to get you interested, then perhaps Syfywire’s coverage with more of Pepose’s discussion of the series, character sheets by Maan House (who also created the cover above) plus preview pages by Gavin Guidry.

Joshua Greathouse has a new art book featuring covers, sketches, paintings and a preview of his next series Unprofessional coming out. Enlightenment is now on Kickstarter.
If you click over to give it a look, you’ll get a glimpse of the Get Carter piece that Greathouse did for me. I’d think that for many readers of this site, the Stallone art would be enough to support Josh’s Kickstarter. ; )

That’s Frank Miller’s cover for Superman Year One. In addition Miller will serve as the writer for the series with John Romita Jr. providing the art. If you click over to Bleeding Cool’s coverage you can learn more about the series and see additional covers.

I became a fan of Palle Schmidt when I read The Devil’s Concubine, a crime noir that he wrote and drew. I’ve pre-ordered Schmidt’s Stiletto, a three part crime mini-series and am looking forward to another great crime comic.
Here’s a rare Nighthawks poster recently posted by New Beverly Cinema. You can see a slightly bigger version by clicking on the photo.

TwoMorrows posted an interview with Alex Toth that is worth a read by Toth and comic art fans.
Each week JoBlo.com posts a feature called Awesome Art We’ve Found Around the Net. I always enjoy what JoBlo finds because with each post they list the artist’s name and a link to more of his/her art.
That’s where I saw this Rocky poster by Stuart Holroyd. Click on the pic above to see a bigger version.

Thanks to SYFY Wire we can watch and listen to John Romita Jr. as he draws Batman!
