Devil's Reign of Updates

So, last week Devil’s Reign was announced in amongst a bunch of other fun stuff. People seemed excited? I don’t really know as I’m not on twitter. If you announce a Marvel Event but you’re in a forest, does it make a social media impact? Big question and I don’t care about the answer it turns out??

Anyway! That was last week and then yesterday the cover for issue one debuted by my partner in crime/justice Marco and our cover colour guru Matt Wilson! I worked on the logo/design with Marvel’s graphic bigwig Jay Bowen and I think … it works??

GodDAMN that Marco can draw.

Marvel put out a press release with more details as well. I don’t want to give too much away, but it all kicks off in Daredevil #36, when Wilson Fisk encounters something wildly unsettling that pushes him over the edge. He’s maybe my favourite character to write, so getting to have him unleashed has been a lot of fun. And look at that lineup of heroes! Luke Cage! Sue Storm! Spidey! It’s almost unfair that I’ve seen so many amazing Marco pages from this and you haven’t!

THEN SHOW THEM TO US YOU COWARD

I said it’s ALMOST unfair. For it to be truly unfair you’d have to buy issue one and have it all be blank pages.

Anyway! I’m going to bore the shit out of you in the coming months about this book! Sorry!

But, speaking of this book and the lead-up to it…

SMOOTH

…Daredevil #34 is out today! With Marco tackling Devil’s Reign we have Stefano Landini helping out as Elektra and Matt get wrapped up in epic fights for survival! It’s a big one! With a beauty Marco/Matt cover to boot!

Also this week is the return of Mangasplaining! The mangang (still working on it) opens Season Two by schooling me on Tezuka! But did I go to the right class?

And then, if you’re still not sick of me, check out this interview Ramon and I did with Geek Network about Stillwater, our careers, Substack and more!

I, uh, think that’s it? For subscribers, our next newsletter will have more Kaptara to keep you warm at night!

Bye!!
