Been a while since we've posted here. Been lots of reasons. The cold of death that knocked us out for the first week-and-a-half of the year. Then the incredible trip to San Francisco that we just got back from and will blog about as soon as we finish the
Flash Gordon and
JLA scripts currently sitting boulder-like on our desk. But we did want to take a second to suggest you trot on down to your local comics shop today to pick up a pair of our newest efforts.
First, there is the
Superman/Batman Annual #3, with the incredibly cool
Bernie Wrightson cover depicted below.

The interiors are a knock-out job by the art team of
Chris Batista on pencils and
Mick Gray and
Jack Jadson on inks. As you can tell from the above, the story is a whole new (and really twisted, if I do say so myself) take on the old
Composite Superman character. Let me know what you think of it.
Also out today (or so I'm told) is
Justice League of America #29, where I'm filling in for a month for the lovely and talented
Dwayne McDuffie. I don't have a copy of that cover handy, but the issue is basically a reimagining and reintroduction to the old character
Starbreaker. The art here is by
ChrisCross and
Rob Stull and it looks terrific.
As ever, if you pick 'em up, please do let me know what you thought of 'em.
And now, back to our regular deadline crunch!

I'll be picking up both of those.
I'm glad you're getting work at DC again. The Superman/Batman Annual was great!
No hints as to whether he has the powers of the Legion of Super-Heroes? Guess I'll have to check this out then...
Hey Shameless Self Promotion. It's time to put up information about your trip to New York.
Loved the annual! Always had a soft spot for the Composite Superman.
I just finished Justice League #29 and really enjoyed it Len, especially the Hal/Kal teamup.
Joe Meach ...one of my favorite villians of all times. A humble janitor who didn't even know he was one of the worlds most powerful villians. I always wished he was used more often way back when I was a kid. But I suppose it was because of his limited use that he remained such a fond memory to me.
