Bat-Flamethrower!

(click on the above image for the poster view)

This "lunch break quickie" was inspired by a brief exchange I had with (American Vampire and Detective Comics writer) Scott Snyder and Bat editor Mike Marts on Twitter - and clearly inspired by the current situtaion in the North East of the US (heck, we even had snow here in Atlanta and it's still kinda white landscape around here).

So,I give you Batman about to free the Batmobile from the snow with his flamethrower ;)
And pls don't forget to pickup Detective #872 tomorrow out in stores (it also includes the second part of SKELETON CASES, the Commissioner Gordon co-feature written by Scott and drawn by me):)

Cheers,
Francesco

THE MAN WITHOUT FEAR

~~ Click on the above and below images for a bigger view ~~

Hello guys,

We are only 7 days away from the release of the first issue of Black Panther as the New Man Without Fear, also known as the issue where I and Award winning writer David Liss will take over the title for quite some time.
And what better time to finally reveal the missing piece of that puzzle of teaser images I did months ago for Who Is The Next Man Without Fear. Of course the missing piece was DareDevil, who will be missing from his own book while Black Panther takes over after the dramatic events of Shadowland.
Below you can see how all the pieces fit together.

Hope you guys dig it and I really hope you guys pick up Black Panther MWF #513 next week: we have put quite some love in this book - you will see :)

Cheers,
Francesco

Black Panther Book of the Month (Wizard)

Hi guys,

while I am still happy for all the praise that my run on Detective (with those talented Snyder and Jock fellas) is getting, I found out today that in the new Wizard Magazine (now on the shelves) my other BIG-TWO debut book with writer David Liss, Black Panther Man Without Fear #513, has been picked as "BOOK OF THE MONTH" in the PULL LIST section of the magazine by the Wizard staff.
The book will be in stores on December 15th - mark your calendars!
If you have been enjoying my noirish art on Commissioner Gordon, well you are gonna get 23 pages of down to the street noir/pulp action in here too :)
Will share some preview when we get closer to the release.

Cheers,
Francesco

"FROGS"

(click on the above image for the poster view)

This is my contribution to the "Monsters & Dames" Charity Artbook 2011 the fine folks put out every year for ECCC.
This year show (2010 edition) was too fun and I loved Seattle and all it's people so I am very happy that I will be attending the EMERALD CITY COMIC CON as a guest again in 2011 - really looking forward to it :)

In other news, Detective Comics #871 (the issue where I started the Commissioner Gordon co-feature) has officially sold out and it's going back to print! YAY!
Thank you everyone for the support and for the love you have shown for this book, I really appreciate it :)

Cheers,
Francesco
