B.P.R.D. Hell on Earth: The Long Death

[Middenway]

Here's some of Guy Davis's sketches:

"Speaking of the new Johann suit~ here's a look at those sketches I did back in April."(http://twitpic.com/78i9mz)

"More variations on the designs for Iosif and Johann's new suit."(http://twitpic.com/78iar9)

"The last page~ Mike liked the direction of the sketches and worked up the final with the awesome Duncan Fegredo!"(http://twitpic.com/78ibwy)

Part of me wonders if the reason Johann is getting a new suit is that he's also getting a new job? Maybe a transfer to Russia?

[Middenway]

I'm actually wondering if the SSS and the BPRD are going to merge.

That was my thought, with the BPRD sort of being under the umbrella of the UN on would think that perhaps other international programs would be merged together.

on the sketches the B.P.R.D. logo is still on, so i would think not, i think mabey losif will join johann.

The cover for the first issue:


...Each of Duncan Fegredo's covers just leaves me speechless. I can never just glance at them either. They always make my eyes linger. Truly impressive. Such a shame it's going to have that B.P.R.D. Hell on Earth logo slapped in the top left corner.

From the solicitations (mild spoilers): A B.P.R.D. task force is assembled to solve a new series of disappearances in the deadly woods from New World. As the team works together to find the monster responsible, tensions arise over one another’s loyalties!

Seems like Johann and Daimio are on a collision course.

Can't wait to see how that's gonna turn out. Also, the cover is quite amazing, I like it alot better in color than the image of it we had before. Really brings it to life

Well, the image we had before was a thumbnail concept sketch.

that's a pretty awesome cover, but I still need my Mignola fix, and will hunt down this one instead

[orringrey]

That Mignola variant is awesome!

[Jr. Wormwood]

I'm definitely gonna want to pick up both of those covers. I'm wondering where they'll be able to fit the logo in on that Mignola version. Bottom left? Not at all?

Maybe the Mignola cover is for something else? Johann isn't wearing the new suit.

The Mignola cover is part of the "Year of Monsters" series of variants. They aren't supposed to have anything to do with the story, they're just a cool picture.
