Another flurry of sneak peeks from Image, this time featuring Brit #7, Dynamo 5 #14, Hyperkinetic #1, Luche Libre #5, Noble Causes #35, The Amory Wars II #2, and The Astounding Wolf-Man #7.
If you browsed through the Image Solicitations for September, you probably saw the new three-issue mini-series M=Theory. The cover is not the only homage to the pulp tales of the 40’s and 50s’, the tales inside bring back those robots, spacemen, and loverly ladies from the time period too.
Image Comics has sent Major Spoilers the cover images and solicitation information for titles arriving in September 2008.
17 June 2008 (Berkeley, CA) - This upcoming weekend, Charlotte, NC’s HeroesCon once again plays host to Image Comics, with guests and panels galore!
“HeroesCon is a darned fine funnybook show,” Image Comics Publisher Erik Larsen said. “In an age when outside media like movies and video games have taken over most conventions, Shelton Drumm and his dedicated team consistently keep Heroes focused on what matters most to those of us in the world of contemporary pictorial literature - a bona-fide COMIC BOOK convention that’s fun for the whole family!”
In addition to the overwhelming number of Image creators attending, Image will be spotlighted on a total of three panels including the State of the Industry Discussion, Friday at 1:30, featuring Image Comics Publisher Erik Larsen in room 207. Saturday brings Tori Amos’ COMIC BOOK TATTOO panel at 12:00PM and The Image Comics Show at 4:00 PM, both in room 217BCD. This Image Comics Show’s HeroesCon debut features Erik Larsen, THE WALKING DEAD’s Robert Kirkman, THE NIGHTLY NEWS’ Jonathan Hickman, PERHAPANAUTS’ creators Todd Dezago & Craig Rosseau and a number of announcements, including the first word on Whilce Portacio’s other big project.
HeroesCon will take place June 20-22 at the Charlotte Convention Center. Image Comics can be found at booth 320.
Image Comics has sent Major Spoilers a sneak peek of titles arriving in stores next week. Take the jump for previews of ‘76 #4, Aletheia #2, and the Horror Book trade paperback.
Or - “These Days, The Government Agencies Always Go Bad…”
Back in the day, the government agent was someone you could trust… Dick Tracy. Nick Fury. King Faraday. James Bond. The spies were always honest, and they stopped those with ignoble or antisocial points of view, for the good of America and/or Mother Britain. In this, the age of irony, we have seen a paradigm shift, where even Nick Fury has admitted that he’s engaged in monstrous behaviors, engaging wars, setting up innocents to be killed, and generally being a jerk. For a couple of years now, Invincible has been working for Cecil Steadman, a government spook who literally has the influence to do whatever is necessary in the name of truth, justice, and the American way. There’s no way that *HE*, too is an amoral buttmonkey, right?
…
Right?
Here’s our second installment of Image Comic Sneak Peeks of the week. In this sneak, Dynamo 5, Killing Girl trade, The Ride Volume II trade, and the Safest Place graphic novel.
Image Comics has a lot of titles shipping again next week, so we are breaking the sneak peeks into two parts again. In this installment, get an early look at After the Cape II, Bomb Queen V #2, Dead Space #4, and the Dust trade paperback.
Image has announced two of its founds, Todd McFarlane and Whilce Portacio, will return to Spawn this October. Beginning with issue #185 the title character will return to its roots.
“While I’m very happy with where Spawn has gone, it’s long past time to inject some new blood into the series while also returning to its roots,” said McFarlane. “I feel what Whilce and I are doing with our co-writer, Brian Holguin, combines the old and the new in a way no one would have expected. That’s a claim which gets tossed around quite a bit in the industry, but this one really changes everything.”
More details of the changes will be announced by Image over the next couple of weeks.
As promised, here is the second half of the Image Comics Sneak Peek of the Week. In this installment, Jack Staff, Screamland, The Amazing Joy Buzzards, and Wildguard: Insider.
Image Comics dropped off another round of sneak peeks this week for titles arriving in store June 11, 2008. Take the jump for After the Cape, Charlatan Ball, Crawl Space: XXXombies trade, the long awaited Invincible #50, and Madman Atomic Comics.
If anything take a look at the layout of Madman Atomic Comics and tell me one continuous panel doesn’t make you go - whoa!

When I was a kid, I remember wanting to be a comic book artist so badly it hurt. Comics had been in my life since before I could remember, and many a day was spent tracing over the art of the greats like Don Heck, John Romita, and Jack Kirby. I shudder to think the number of Bronze Age comics I devalued or destroyed in the name of artistic training. When I got older, I enrolled in every art class I could find and actually became quite good, winning state contests and school shows. The thing that always bugged me though, was how did the people who where published in the comics actually get there, and what was a day in their studio like?
Or - “Hell, Man… I Only Have So Much Free Time!”
There seems to be a thing out there called “Real Life.” It’s composed mostly of things to annoy you and drain your wallet of cash, but sometimes it also feeds on your free time. One of the joys of this gig is getting to share the wondrous things that happen in comics and split the burdens of that which is terrible, which means I usually bite off more than I can chew in terms of comics that I’d like to review. Since this has happened yet again, it’s time to play catch-up (because mustard stains the carpet.)
Image Comics has sent Major Spoilers a sneak peek of titles arriving in stores next week. Take the jump for Proof #8, Invincible Volume 9, Studio Space #1, and The Sword #8.
Image Comics has sent Major Spoilers the cover images and solicitation information for titles shipping in August 2008.
