Francavilla’s Black Beetle is Coming!

If, like me, you’re a fan of Francesco Francavilla’s art and stories, you’ll be happy to hear that his character the Black Beetle will premiere in his first mini-series starting in January.  It’ll be called No Way Out.

If you just can’t wait until January, this December the three part Black Beetle story, Night Shift, will be collected into a single volume.

Big congrats to Francesco!

Boatwright & Carter’s Explosive Return

Thomas Boatwright makes an explosive return with Jack Carter!

If you’d like to see more of Thomas Boatwright’s art check out his blog and his DA site. Send him some love.

If you get commissions, you should consider a piece from Thomas. He keeps you totally in the loop on his progress, finishes his commissions on or ahead of schedule, has very reasonable prices, is a fantastic artist and always gives you more than you’re expecting! – Craig

Mike Torrance Takes Aim at Jack Carter

Mike Torrance aka The Krayola Kidd may have done more Jack Carter drawings than anyone else in my collection. Perhaps he enjoys drawing the character as much as I do getting the pieces.

You can see more of Mike’s art at The Daily Sketch with The Krayola Kidd (and if you’ve never checked out Mike’s site, you ought to if only to see his Walking Dead cards!) and his Deviant Art site. Mike is available for commissions and his prices are very reasonable.


Scene of the Crime

You know I’m diggin’ that Scene of the Crime cover by Michael Lark and Sean Phillips.  It’s for a new, over-sized hardcover reprint of the crime/noir graphic story that Lark and Phillips did with writer, Ed Brubaker.

Scene of the Crime will be out on November 14th, but you should let your local comic shop manager know now.

 

Mike Torrance: A Tale of Two Carters

Mike Torrance aka The Krayola Kidd is back and he brought Jack Carter with him – both of them. Mike surprised me with this clever take on “Get Carter” at Heroes Con. Mike outdid himself with this one!

You can see more of Mike’s art at The Daily Sketch with The Krayola Kidd (and if you’ve never checked out Mike’s site, you ought to if only to see his Walking Dead cards!) and his Deviant Art site. Mike is available for commissions and his prices are very reasonable.


Where is Jake Ellis?

I really enjoyed Who is Jake Ellis? by Nathan Edmondson (writer), Tonci Zonjic (artist).   So you’d probably think that I’m happy that Edmondson and Zonjic are coming back with a sequel (Where is Jake Ellis?), right?  Well, if you thought that, you’d be right.   I am really looking forward to it.

Read this interview with Nathan Edmondson and you’ll get a feel of what we can expect when Jake Ellis returns.
