So, who is the next writer of "Legion" after Tony Bedard? I have been told one name. "Jim."
Lee or Shooter? Both have a strong interest in the title.
Well, as reported, the new "Legion" artist is Francis Manapul, whose inker is John Livesay, who is working on a project... with Jim Shooter
I understand "Stormwatch" has been cancelled with issue 12.
Bendis on Ultimate Spider-Man's legacy:
"It invented a more reader-friendly comic book. Even though it's 120 issues, you read that recap page, which by the way didn't exist in ancient comics prior to Ultimate Spider-Man. That was a Bill Jemas invention. The new writers don't want to bog down the writing with exposition, which is just lazy writing. So to do a recap like they do in front of 'Law & Order,' or 'Previously on ER,' to do that and get back right into the story. So that has now been applied to every comic book."
A Bill Jemas invention indeed, and one that appeared in "Nexus," "Bone," "Flaming Carrot," "Astro City," all the Milestone books, Penthouse Comix, "Deadpool"... and then pretty much every Marvel comic in the mid nineties, sporting a fold out cover recap page with an ad on the back, all before Jemas had editorial power.
Martin Hand has started an "Unoffical Handbook To The Marvel Universe." It's rather fun.

I love Rags Morales now. Here is a little tiff between Rags and FUCK Rob Liefeld forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?p=4226994
