SIN/CROSSBONES

Jordie and I are attending the Lille Comics Festival in a few weeks (Nov 5th/6th). As such, we were asked to contribute artwork to be made into a lithograph print that will raise money for charity. The theme was 'villains'. This is what we came up with: a Crossbones/Sin piece. The Red Skull raised his ugly head too.

CAPTAIN AMERICA AND CROSSBONES [out this week]


A lettered preview for CAPTAIN AMERICA AND CROSSBONES is up on the various sites, including this one. It's out THIS WEDNESDAY. Show your love for the Irish this Paddy's day by picking it up! I'm really happy with it, it was a great script by William Harms and Matt Wilson did a fantastic job on colours.

CAPTAIN AMERICA AND CROSSBONES

The Crossbones one-shot i did has been previewed online again, with one new unseen page. Thought i'd post the colours (by the great Matt Wilson) at a decent resolution to show to ye all.

I'VE BEEN SOLICITED!

The Marvel Solicitations for March '11 ore out so i can finally harp on about what i'm doing next.

First, as i've already mentioned is...

CAPTAIN AMERICA AND CROSSBONES #1

Written by WILLIAM HARMS

Penciled by DECLAN SHALVEY

Cover by GREG TOCCHINI

Cap's assassin stars in his own horrific comic! When a monstrous virus overtakes an isolated island, the skull-faced psychopath is unleashed to rescue the one person who may deliver resistance to the terrifying outbreak. But can the man who shot Captain America be trusted to do the right thing? Writer William Harms (Impaler) and artist Declan Shalvey (Thunderbolts) deliver the twisted answer in this extra-sized shocker!

40 PGS./One-Shot/Rated T+ ...$3.99

You can read about the other one shots, featuring work by Ramon Perez, Rob Williams, Kieron Gillen and more on the Marvel website here.

I'm very happy to report there's more Thunderbolts in the pipeline, starting with #154...

THUNDERBOLTS #154

Written by JEFF PARKER

Penciled by DECLAN SHALVEY

Cover by ARTHUR ADAMS

Before he was pressed into service for the Thunderbolts, the mysterious swamp monster of the team knew another life: as guardian for a force of nature called The Nexus of Realities. An old friend of the creature does remember this–and breaks the silent one out of The Raft to return to duty at the borders of our world. What danger awaits the Man-Thing–and what will The Thunderbolts say to losing their favorite plant?

32 PGS. Rated T+ …$2.99 (each)

CAPTAIN AMERICA and CROSSBONES

Well, cat's outta the bag. Yesterday on CBR's T&A column, uber-editor Tom Brevoort announced a series of Captain America related one-shots. One of which is CROSSBONES, written by William Harms and drawn by myself (See here for more on the other one shots).

Added bonus to the project was getting to work with colourist Matt Wilson. I've known Matt a while and have been dying to work with him. Check his blog to see the GREAT work he's done on this book, taking my halftone, colourizing it, and adding some of his own. Feels like i'm actually collaborating with a colourist for once.

This book won't be out until March, so that's the only news i'll have for a while. My next Marvel book is supposed to be out in March too, so that might be announced soon, we'll see.
