Who was that masked man, anyway?
This comic marks the first time Alex Ross has done full interior artwork since JLA: Liberty and Justice, which was back in... wow, all the way back in 2003.

A superhero team truly worthy of the comics medium
Issue 3 of Edison Rex, the series about a Lex Luthor analogue's life after his heroic nemesis' death, introduces that universe's analogue to the Justice League.
Hee. Spot the in-joke in their names?
( Anyhoo, two pages from Edison Rex #3 and four from #4 )

The world's greatest supervillain has won
Chris Roberson, who, as you might recall, recently quit DC over its treatment of creators' rights, has launched a new line of creator-owned comics, MonkeyBrain Comics. It debuted yesterday.
One of the launch titles is Edison Rex, by Roberson and artist Dennis Culver. The premise: The world's greatest mad scientist has finally defeated his heroic arch-enemy. So what will he do next?
( Four pages from issue 1 )

Stan Lee hits it out of the ballpark. Again.
The other two books Stan Lee is doing with Boom! Studios (Soldier Zero and The Traveler) have been posted to Scans_Daily already, but so far Starborn hasn't gotten any love. Finally decided I should do something about that.
STARBORN is the story of Benjamin Warner. A young man who works some dull, life-sapping office job in a cubicle, he has dreams of becoming a science fiction novelist. All his life, he's been working on stories about something called the Human Civilization.
Then, one day, he learns that he's from outer space and all those stories he thought he'd made up are in fact real...
For this book, Stan's teamed up with Roberson on writing and Khary Randolph on art.
( Seven pages from issue 1, four from 2... )

arbre_rieur2010-07-22 02:40Stan Lee's newest superheroes
If you've been following the San Diego Con news, you probably already heard about this. Stan Lee's teaming up with Boom! Studios, Mark Waid, Paul Cornell, and Chris Roberson to create a new superhero universe.
There's been a whole bunch of articles about the project on the various comics news sites, but my favorite bit from them's got to be this Waid quote:
"I had just turned in detailed series synopses fleshing out Stan's concepts, adding things as I went, trying to be clever and maybe trying a little too hard to impress. And he sat down with me for our first plot conference, and he's all handshakes and charm and warmth, exactly the Smilin' Stan you expect...and then once we got down to business, he was all business. He schooled me," Waid told CBR. "He wasn't angry, but boy, was he intense and emphatic about zeroing in on the places I'd been too clever by half and had gone off the rails, and buddy, I was floored. I was being lectured by Professor Stan, and he wasn't just to-the-point...he was to-the-point and dead right and, I suspect, a little irked that I'd made some amateur mistakes. And then as soon as he was finished very rightly, very justifiably lecturing me...he became Smilin' Stan again and ended the meeting as brightly and charmingly as he'd begun it. He's been an absolute joy to work with, everything I ever could have dreamed of, greater than even his legend...but I gotta tell you, there's still a ten-year-old Mark Waid curled up in a fetal position inside of me from that morning."
