"I’d always wanted to do a Western, but years ago I had an editor tell me that artists hate drawing horses and that was why it was so hard to get a Western going. He was probably kidding, but I believed him.
Newsflash: I’m an idiot." - Kelly Sue DeConnick

That's Spider-Island: Cloak & Dagger, which ended this week.
Snappily written by Nick Spencer and evocatively drawn by Emma Rios, its three issues go like Black Panther's one does in the Queen's greater scheme: perpendicular.
There's of course a point of intersection in #1 (remember Cloak as Wayfarer Guide in ASM 667?), but from there Cloak and Dagger's story goes its own way, parallel and tangent to the horrors of Spider-Island.
It ends independent of Spider-Island's conclusion, unlike its fellow tie-ins. To read it from Steve Wacker's words, that's because this's an opportune "new beginning" for Dagger and Cloak. There's no plans yet to go ahead with more, but if you'd like 'em to, well..
I'd love to, myself, for the art and the colors and the writing. Spencer brought to this the same deft combination of existing canon and his own ideas his licensed work seems to always have, and Rios, well.. either you know, or you'll see.
( Combined, they not only depict the titular heroes well, but Chinatown gang boss and Spidey foe Mister Negative too. )

Am I allowed to feel special up here?

Because I just got a letter back from a writer, as opposed to the editor, of a comic book I've been following religiously up to now.
( Hooray, a letter! Also, slightly spoilery for Osborn #4. )

Four pages from Strange #3, of the current Dr. Strange mini-series. Out of all the issues so far, this one might be the least Doctor Who-ish yet. YMMV on whether that's a good thing or bad thing, I suppose.

Strange #1 Preview
"No longer Sorcerer Supreme of the Marvel Universe, Stephen Strange must discover a new path to fulfillment and enlightenment. Unfortunately, that path leads through a bizarre, terrifying gauntlet of magical menaces--and if the former Master of the Mystic Arts is going to survive the journey, he'll need some assistance - in the form of a brand-new student!"
( and, y'know, oddly adorable lovecraftian baseball. )

I realise that everyone and their dog has the new copy of Runaways before me, mainly because my local comic provider is in some sort of time warp. Anyway, this moment caused me to laugh for a good few minutes. It's such a teenager moment.
