Going back to the archives: Nextwave (or Agents of HATE or whatever) was a deliriously funny book by Warren Ellis and Stuart Immonen. Unfortunately, not enough people bought the book to keep going, so it didn’t survive past its first year. However, we will always have those twelve issues. This is the cover for issue 5; Immonen created a new style for the book and completely surprised me with this lithe and dynamic cartoony work.

I haven’t read the Jeph Loeb Hulk, nor do I particularly want to, but I’ll post a cover for one of its issues if it’s drawn by Arthur Adams in his wonderful comic book style.

Yesterday, I talk about how nice is it to see more Jason Pearson work; today, the Image solicitations for November are posted and informs us that new Body Bags material will be arriving: One Shot. Coincidence? Seeing as this was first mooted in 2006, it’s been a long wait. Hopefully, it will be worth it.

Marvel solicitations for November: I really like Jason Pearson’s art, so it’s good to see him doing regular work again at Marvel. This is his cover for issue 4 of the new Deadpool series.

DC solicitations for November: today’s image is Ambush Bug: Year None #5, homaging the cover to Giffen’s Justice League #1, both of which are by the very talented Kevin Maguire.

Weekend flashback continues: this is the cover to Daredevil #57 from Bendis and Maleev’s very good run on the character. Very nice design.

Today is the cover for the latest PVP anthology: Awesomology. I’ve been reading Scott Kurtz’s PVP since 2001, so it was about time I put up an image. Although not necessarily typical of PVP, I do like the design on this.
