Frank Miller Has 6 Projects in the Works!
Frank Miller will provide the art and team with writer Thomas Wheeler for Cursed, a young adult novel that…
…tells the story of King Arthur from the point of view of Nimue, the 16-year-old girl who first wielded Excalibur and ultimately became the Lady of the Lake.
We can expect the release of Cursed in the fall of 2019.
It was also announced today that Frank Miller has signed a five-project deal with DC Comics. The first two projects are:
-
Superman: Year One: Miller will write and John Romita Jr. will provide the art.
-
A graphic novel focusing on Carrie Kelley, Robin from Miller’s classic Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. Again, Miller will serve as writer and Ben Caldwell will take on the art chores.
-
Miller is also set to write three undisclosed projects to complete the five-project deal.
Boy, I sure wish a new Miller Sin City yarn was in the works.

Marilyn Monroe’s Response
This is one of those stories that if it isn’t true, it should be.
In 1951, Marilyn Monroe wore a low-cut red dress to a party.
The next morning, a columnist complained that Marilyn Monroe was “cheap and vulgar,” and would have looked more decent in a potato sack.
Marilyn’s response was the photos above.

Mike Mignola’s “Bride of Frankenstein”
Seeing Mike Mignola’s Bride of Frankenstein piece makes me wonder why someone isn’t licensing the classic Universal Monster movies to bring out as comics. I’d think there’s a market for them.

Stephen Franck’s Silver Coming to Free Comic Book Day!
May 5, 2018 is Free Comic Book Day. Dark Planet is making Stephen Franck’s Silver #1 available. Franck summarizes Silver as…
… an original universe built around Bram Stoker’s original Dracula, and it begins 40 years after the events of the novel, into the noir/pulp era of the 1930s. You meet James Finnigan, who is the most notorious conman/gentleman-thief of his day, as he teams up with Rosalynd “Sledge” Van Helsing (granddaughter of the original Van Helsing, and altogether the last of the Van Helsings), to steal a mystical treasure hidden in Dracula’s castle. Finn, of course, brings his known associates—a fun assortment of conmen and grifters of all kinds—as well as the kind of amoral attitude that puts him immediately at odds with Sledge. Lastly, the team enlists Tao Leu (or more accurately, he enlists himself), who is a 10-year-old boy with the gift of second sight and who might be the biggest scoundrel of them all.
If this sounds like something you’d like or you’d like to see more click over to Free Comic Book Day’s Interview with Stephen Franc or to see a bigger preview of Silver.
