Still trying to catch up from my very long trip to Las Vegas, which means I missed getting this sneak peek from Dynamite Entertainment up in time. But considering the new issues just hit stores, there is probably a good change to get back to the shop to pick one of these up. (more…)
Fans have really reacted in a positive manner over the Arthur Suydam cover to Savage Tales #1. You know, this one…
It is such a great cover that Dynamite Entertainment will be releasing an 18 x 24 inch poster this July.
“When I was working on this cover, I wanted to capture a moment of the calm following the storm. It’s like ‘what’s this pretty flower doing in the middle of this barren scene?’ What immediately sprung to mind was to create a painting that felt like Maxfield Parrish meets Robert E. Howard,” said Suydam.
While I like the idea of comic cover posters, this one is so amazing, I would much rather see it as a life size poster. I can imagine the fanboy reaction if such a thing were allowed.
The poster will sell for $7.99.
Dynamite Entertainment has announced it will be giving fans a chance to win an original art page from Savage Tales #1 featuring Red Sonja.
I picked up issue #1 of Savage Tales as part of my weekly items, and found it pretty impressive. Anthology books seem to work for me and keep me interested in coming back for more. Last week Dynamite Entertainment released information about Savage Tales #2 coming in May.
Issue #2 features the conclusion of a special Red Sonja story from Ron Marz and Adriano Batista! Savage Tales #2 also features:
“Battle for Atlantis” Part Two from writers Leah Moore and John Reppion with artists Pablo Marcos and Stjepan Sejic: The world around the Atlanteans is changing and growing ever more savage and brutal, can the majestic state find its way in this harsh new world?
The Hunter Part Two — from the pages of Red Sonja — from writers Luke Lieberman and Michael Avon Oeming with artist Kevin Sharpe: The Hunter finds a new ally in his quest to avenge the death of his master - the Borat Na-Fori — and seek the ultimate revenge on Kulan Gath!
Cthulhu and The Old Ones by Mike (Marvel’s ZOMBIE) Raict and artist Pere Perez: Continuing the tale of the stranded Cthulhu as a desperate band of islanders attempts to stave off his ever-growing madness!
Three covers will also accompany issue 2, and you can see them after the jump.
Dynamite Entertainment and Marvel Comics have announced one of the strangest crossovers I’ve seen since Ash made the leap to Zombieland. The next major team up will feature Spider-Man and Red Sonja, something that hasn’t happened since 1979.
The Spider-Man/Red Sonja team up will be a five issue limited series as the duo battle the devious duo of Kulan Gath and Venom. Michael Avon Oeming will write, with Mel Rubi on art with Brian Buccellato coloring. Covers will be done by *sigh* Michael Turner.
Dynamite’s Nick Barrucci stated, “With this crossover we’re touching on some of the greatest comic stories ever told, and it’s an absolute honor. Having the opportunity to team Red Sonja with one of the world’s most iconic characters, Spider-Man, is also a credit to Red Sonja’s regular creative team of Oeming, Rubi and Buccellato, who have handled the She-Devil’s sword-swinging adventures every bit as masterfully as the legendary creators before them. And of course, we’re very pleased to be working with our good friends at Marvel once more. This is the team up no one ever thought they would see again- with that in mind, we are working closely with Marvel to ensure this crossover has real meaning to the fans, as well as the continuity of both franchises.”
