In an interview with Publishers Weekly, DC editor Mark Chiarello talks about the wonderful artistic anthology Solo and some of the upcoming authors:
Coming up are Berni Wrightson, Brian Stelfreeze, Jill Thompson, Scott Hampton, Sergio Aragones, Brendan McCarthy Kevin Nowlan, Jose Luis Garcia Lopez and George Pratt.
That’s generally a pretty impressive lineup – all along, it’s been nice to see that DC has recruited more experienced storytellers instead of Michael Turner Explains Anatomy – but the highlight has got to be Brendan McCarthy. I’m still in the process of tracking down more of his work (just found a copy of Rogan Gosh on eBay, but the man is insanely talented. He’s apparently quite a good storyteller on his own – he’s done designs and storyboards for films – but we have to assume the’ll be at least one or two appearances by Peter Milligan. These two have been apart for far too long.
Better than the Mike Allred issue? Probably not. But it certainly promises some crazy excellence.
