Total Sellout

First, THANK YOU for all the incredibly kind words about Devil’s Reign #1 that I’m assuming you’re saying since I don’t look at twitter or review sites! It theoretically warms my heart!

We’ve sold out and a second printing is on the way, featuring Marco’s beautiful black & white work!

And I just received my very special Certificates of Authenticity for the ZDARSCO, INC. Devil’s Reign #1 variant, so those will be going out in the mail soon! It’s all very pretty!

And, I’ve finally achieved my dream of having my ludicrous company logo and slogan on the back of a Marvel Comic™.

You can get them here! And in the coming weeks more of my work (signed and unsigned) will be available there!

UGH ZDARSCO, INC. IS SUCH A SELLOUT NOW. I REMEMBER WHEN THE ZDARSCO, INC. NAME MEANT SOMETHING

It always meant “stupid.”

This week! Newburn issue 2 is out! Really proud of this one. It cements the world of Newburn and Emily, and Jacob makes it all really sing!

And hey! This past week I got to sit down with Mr. Charles Soule and talk COMICS! We go on about our great new books STAR WARS: CRIMSON REIGN and DEVIL’S REIGN, but we also got rudely interrupted by Ed Brubaker:

Ed Brubaker, “writer,” interrupter

Luckily we got things back on track after that. It was a fun interview! We talk about our Daredevil runs and life and love and stuff like that! Check it out!

Speaking of interviews, I also talked to Forbidden Planet about my upcoming Batman book, THE KNIGHT!

White-hot comics writer Chip Zdarsky descends into the Bat-cave and unleashes Batman: The Knight #1 in the latest episode of Forbidden Planet TV, link below: youtube.com/watch?v=u-3KkH… #Daredevil #Marvel #Batman

And I also talk to CBR about it!

Will I ever shut up???

PLEASE

Here’s OTHER people talking, thank god:

These fine folks got to check out the very special SPIDER-MAN: LIFE STORY HARDCOVER! I almost never watch videos where I’m a subject, but I really wanted to see how this turned out. Spoilers: it looks nice! It includes our recent LIFE STORY ANNUAL, so it’s a real total package! It’s out December 29, so you can use your Christmas money on it! Nice!

I … think that’s it for me? For anyone looking for updates on my rockin’ (to pieces) bod, it turns out I’m a true medical mystery! Many practitioners are working ‘round the clock to figure out why I’m always in pain! I keep telling them “I’m a comic book creator” but apparently that’s not a diagnosis.

Oh! Also! I did a variant cover for my good friend Matthew Rosenberg! WHAT’S THE FURTHEST PLACE FROM HERE is a fantastic new series and I was happy to make a creepy cover for them!

Okay! That’s it for me! Bye!

Chip’s Funtime Substack couldn’t exist without you! I mean, it could, but it would absolutely suck and be incredibly lonely. Your subscription enables me to make fun stuff, hire fun creators, and give you comics with the Zdarsky Touch™. So, thanks!
