Image Comics solicited for release in December 2014.
Remember what I said about Marvel comics writers worth watching for? Same list for Image as Marvel with a few more: Kelly Sue deConnick, Jonathan Hickman, Kieron Gillen, Rick Remender, Matt Fraction, J. Michael Straczynski, Brian K. Vaughn, Chris Roberson, Antony Johnston, Greg Rucka, Ted McKeever, Warren Ellis, and Kurt Busiek.
The first issue of Bitch Planet by Kelly Sue deConnick and Valentine Delandro. Kelly Sue is giving us a women-in-prison exploitation science fiction comic. She's good. This should be fun.
The first Dream Police collection by J. Michael Straczynski and Sid Kotian will be out December 3. So is Sovereign, by Chris Roberson and Paul Maybury.
Two titles are on their second issues: ODY-C by Matt Fraction and Christian Ward, and Prophet: Earth War by Brandon Graham, Simon Roy, and Giannis Milogiannis. ODY-C is a gender swapped science fictional retelling of The Odyssey. Prophet is a Rob Liefeld character that was his reclaiming of Marvel's Cable under another name. Later, Alan Moore made Prophet more a pulp character. When Brandon Graham started writing prophet's adventures, he made the comic more a French Metal Hurlant Moebius style story. Very druggy gonzo science fiction.
IDW comics solicited for December 2014.
Writers working at IDW that have my attention, even if I don't directly mention their book: Neil Gaiman, Larry Hama, Karen Traviss, Ron Marz, Chuck Dixon, Steve Niles, and Eric Shanower.
The collections of Hugo Pratt's Corto Maltese start in December. (drool)
