Newsarama has a nifty preview of Warren Ellis & Salvador Larocca’s newuniversal.
It does kind of look like stereotypical Ellis, but at least the good stereotypical Ellis who enjoys what he’s doing, as opposed to the one who takes Ultimate gigs so he can afford to do the stuff he really wants to write.
And while I admit to finding Larocca’s work pretty bland on X-Men (he and Peter Milligan were about the worst combination of talents I’ve seen in recent years), he’s really stepped it up here. If his name wasn’t on the book, I’m not sure I’d recognize it at all.
Interesting looking book, and the preview hints at both some far-out sci-fi fantasy and some dark ‘n’ gritty super-vigilantism. Very promising, and near the top of my “books I can’t wait for” list. (note: I do not have an actual list)
