July 2006 Solicitations

I’m just going to post the covers to the trades that really caught my attention. Hopefully a more meaningful discussion regarding the latest Previews will be forthcoming, however I’m not going to promise anything, enjoy.


24seven by the SUPREME Adam Hughes. This guy could draw his stuff on toilet paper and I’d still be interested.


Missed fucking opportunity. I’m a massive Greg Capullo fan, but the graphic design on this art book leaves a lot to be desired. Something seriously went wrong with the trade dress on this one.


I said I was going to buy the hardcover that was released a couple of months ago, however never got round to it, I’ll definitely pick up the trade, not really sure it’s worth the hc treatment (although I’m a big Brubaker fan).


More Brubaker goodness. Gotta love the man, he’s on fire currently, just wish he wasn’t Marvel exclusive, his DC and WS stuff was always stellar.


Never played the game, but I’m sure this will be a good seller for Marvel. Can’t remember the last time Marvel did a proper license property, fitting it should be one of the most popular video games currently.


Probably wait for the trade paperback on this one. As much as I love Ellis’ superhero writing and Adi’s art is above the rest, not 6 issues is not worth $19.99.


Seriously this book is ridiculous. 50 issues of Witchblade. Is that a record? 1248 pages long!!!! I’ve got the first 42 issues so it’s not really for me. I will vouch for the first 25 issues as the artwork and the story were very well paced. Not much in way of revelations which is a real shame, and getting Randy Green to replace Michael Turner at the time wasn’t the best option (I enjoyed it but they really hurt themselves with that move). Still though 1248 pages.
