Image United: The Upcoming Image Founder Crossover

[michaeljsmith]

Except that they're NOT "all the same."

A series like this takes a great deal of coordination and preparation. We're starting now--and the plan is to release it next summer. I know of few books coming out where any work has so much as started--much less has multiple covers and some interior art completed.

Why does it sound better coming from you? Love the cover to issue #2

You tell 'em, Eric! Looking forward to spending next summer reading these books.

Thought you guys were going to keep the release date to yourselves :)

Boy, that Wildsiderz thing.

I actually have the two issues and the 0 issue. He couldn't just finish those two. I know comics are hard work, but If know he could of finished it if he wanted to. I have his Danger Girl Sketchbook and I have to wonder if he's just too disatisfied with his own work or is just distracted.

Anyway, I hope Todd (McFarlane) pencils something. He's my favorite Image Founder, but I don't think he's into pencilling anymore, he just likes to ink.

If you go to my Image United blog in the signature block you will see some finished pieces, including Todd's Spawn. He also has drawn the cover for Spawn 185.

Why does your blog have more stuff than Image's?

You have to go to the one that says Image United - hard telling what you will find in the other one.. :p

I have been at it since July - they just started theirs last week. If they wanted they could always just work through me I hope at some point to get a couple of the creators to do a few question interview (hint, hint Mr Larsen )

I do appreciate the blog and the communication to the fans some of you guys are doing. That photo of Todd drawing the cover alone made me think "Hey this is actually happening." I'm really rooting for this project I think you guys and these characters have a lot of potential to do something really special. Nothing would make me happier then you guys to make the release dates and put out an awesome book and prove the nay sayers wrong.

Not Image United but the "Image All Stars" appear in this weeks issue of Savage Dragon. Looks like a whole lot of fun.



I'm holding out hope Erik throws a little preview for Image United (though we've been seeing ads for it in Kirkman's books as well as the last issue of Dragon).

they sure are over hyping it. i hope they dont fail

[Global Honored]

Like how? As if a mega inter-company crossover featuring some of the biggest characters and creators in comics could ever go wrong....pffff...

Well, this time

a) Kirkman is the writer
b) They won't solicit until they're far on it (which according to them, it's already there - some of them were working on issue 2 at the beggining of the year).
c) McFarlane is only drawing one character - Spawn. He won't be drawing any backgrounds on any other characters.
d) Erik is laying the whole thing out. And he's fast. The man can write, pencil and ink 44 pages a month no problem.
