Hey iamus, thanks very much for the kind words!
>>>if the writing's even half as good then it's gonna be something special<<<
As I've said before, my biggest concern with working on this book was doing the script justice. It's a fantastic piece of writing, everyone who's read it has been completely captivated. This is a script that came to DC in the mail, unsolicited, and on its strength Aaron now has two series at Vertigo. I wouldn't have invested so much of myself in this if I didn't wholly believe in the brilliance of the story. I've worked with Grant Morrison, Ed Brubaker, Pete Milligan, Mike Mignola, Brian Azzarello, Joss Whedon - a veritable Who's Who of the best writers in comics - and this is easily one of the very best scripts I've drawn.
I realize that I'm turning the dial on the Hype Machine to "Mark Millar" setting but seriously, this is some really great shit.
Regarding the coloured version of the first page - DC asked me to whip up a quickie colour version so they could include it in the slide show at the Vertigo Panel at the New York Comic Con in February, and that's what you see on CBR. The final colour will probably be similar, but better.
The image of the choppers soaring over the rice paddy is NOT in the final book, it's still an unused page.
Thanks again for the encouragement! |
