This actually sounds pretty awesome, I usually don't go for this sort of thing.

[Scud]

Chip Kidd + Batman = Money leaving my pocket.

[Free-Man]

Sounds good.

[The Beast Of Yucca Flats]

Dave Taylor? That's a name I haven't seen in years.

[Namtab]

Sounds cool. I like that (from what we can see) the Batman design kind of resembles his original 1939 appearance, with the ears flaring out a little bit.

[G.I.JOSE]

I`ll pick this just for the art, looks spectacular just in black n white, please DC, leave it be in B&W !!

"It's all pencil with no ink, so it has a really distinctive look."

And just like that, I lost interest Too bad, because it just starting to sound cool, from a writing perspective.

Seriously? That preview art looks awesome, totally perfect use of pencil.

I want this thing.

"This is not a brooding, self-doubting or otherwise mentally unbalanced version of the character...He does not have a problem being this character and is not a tortured soul"

Sold.

[Free-Man]

Is any of Kidd's other writing any good?

Is any of Kidd's other writing any good?

I have a copy of "The Cheese Monkeys", his first novel, and I think it was a very good read. I may be biased, since I'm a graphic designer too, and the novel is a bout a guy studying graphic design in the late '50s/early '60s.

In short, yes. His writting is very good :)
