RUNEMASTER STUDIOS LEAVES ALIAS

 Press Release
Studio Responsible for Lions, Tigers and Bears and The Gimoles
Parts Ways With Publisher

Runemaster Studios, Inc. has announced that it is severing ties
with Alias Enterprises, effective immediately. Runemaster's
partnership with Alias produced the sold-out mini-series Lions,
Tigers and Bears, published through Image comics, as well as the
debut issue of The Gimoles. The trade paperback collection of
Lions, Tigers and Bears, also produced in partnership with Alias,
sold out of its initial printing.

"Our relationship with Alias initially seemed like a match made
in heaven," stated Runemaster's President Mike Bullock. "However,
the current direction Alias is pursuing no longer fits with our
vision for Runemaster Studios, so we have no choice but to part
ways."

According to Bullock, Runemaster is terminating the licensing
agreements for Lions, Tigers and Bears and The Gimoles for cause,
due to material breaches committed by Alias.

"It's unfortunate the situation has come to this," Bullock said.
"We've exhausted every avenue of reconciling our differences with
Alias and securing what is owed to us. This is a last resort, but
we've been left with no other option."

As for the future of Runemaster's properties, a new publisher has
already been secured for a second Lions, Tigers and Bears mini-
series, with the first issue of the series already nearing
completion. Fans can expect to see it in stores in early 2006.
The Gimoles #2 was delivered to Alias in mid-July for release in
August, but has yet to appear in stores. According to Bullock,
Runemaster has yet to receive a satisfactory explanation from
Alias for the delay, nor has a new release date been established.

"It's frustrating. I'd like to personally apologize to the fans
who supported us by picking up the first issue of Gimoles,"
Bullock said. "This is something that's out of our hands right
now, but I promise you, the story will be finished, one way or
another."

and this posted Response, 9/22/05

We at Alias are saddened to see this happen. Our relationship
with Runemaster was positive overall, and we regret losing them
as a client and a partner.

The simple fact of the matter is that both series took a major
loss. Gimoles sales were so low that we had no choice but to
cancel funding on the project. We gave Runemaster the option of
finishing out the series without advanced funding, and were
awaiting their response when we read this PR on Newsarama.

There was no material breach of contract.

Obviously we hope for the best for Runemaster and its partners,
and good luck to whatever publisher decided to pick them up.

RE: Penny and Aggie, I personally hated to have to cancel that
book, but it just came down to numbers, and they graciously
understood. We're working on some other avenues of publishing
that may allow us to pick it back up in the near future. I'd love
to see us continue the series as an ongoing.

DC's JUSTICE SELLS-OUT; CAVALIERI PROMOTED
Press Releases

JUSTICE PREVAILS AS JUSTICE #1 SELLS OUT AT DC

JUSTICE #1, the debut issue of the new blockbuster
maxiseries by Alex Ross, Jim Krueger and Doug Braithwaite,
has sold out at DC Comics. The issue arrived in stores on
August 3.

"This is the best reaction I've had to any work of mine in
the last ten years," says Ross. "I'd like to think I'm
giving people what they want from me, and hopefully the
sales show that. The first issue is really just a way to
start us getting into much more cliffhanger-like moments of
this war we're setting."

"Alex, Jim and Doug have done a tremendous job getting this
series off to a strong start," says Bob Wayne, DC's VP -
Sales. "We urge retailers to increase their orders now on
the next issue, so they'll have enough copies for all their
customers."

JUSTICE #2 (AUG050223) is solicited in the August Previews
(Volume XV #8) and is scheduled to arrive in stores on
October 19.

DC Comics has no plan at this time to go back to press on
this issue. Copies still may be available at retail.

Now I have nothing to complain about!"

promotion is much deserved. He is one of the most
experienced editors in the business, able to juggle a wide
variety of projects, from BIZARRO COMICS to SPACE GHOST to
DAY OF VENGEANCE."

Cavalieri first joined the DC staff in 1982 as Staff
Writer, after three years of freelance writing for DC,
including memorable issues of SUPER POWERS and THE

Joe Quesada to Be Guest of Honor at the New York Comic-Con
Terry Chu Will Handle Anime Programming
 September 21, 2005
Reed Exhibitions has announced that Joe Quesada, Editor-in-Chief
of Marvel Comics will be a New York Comic-Con Guest of Honor, and
will lead an all-star contingent of Marvel creators who will all
be present at the inaugural New York Comic-Con, which will be
held at the Jacob K. Javits Center from February 24th to February
26th, 2006. The show will be open to the trade only on February
24th and to the general public on February 25th and 26th.

Officials at the New York Comic-Con, which will be a true pop
culture convention, covering comics, games, movies, anime and
other related industries, also announced several appointments to
the staff which will oversee all special events and conference
programming for the convention.  Terry Chu, who has been involved
in event planning and coordination for Otakon, has been given
responsibility for all anime programming.  In addition to his
work on behalf of Otakon, Terry Chu has been involved in a myriad
of other duties for several conventions.  Chu is also the creator
of FlyByNightDesign.com.  Chu will work with Milton Griepp of
ICv2, who will serve as Program Chairman, and Steve Rosato,
Director of Strategic Accounts and Industry Development for
BookExpo America (also managed by Reed Exhibitions), who will
take on the additional role of Conference and Special Events
Director.

The number of industry leading companies participating in the New
York Comic-Con also continues to grow with Darkhorse Comics, the
Comic Book Legal Defense Fund, and the Sci-Fi Channel all signing
up for participation this past week.  In addition the Licensing
Industry Merchandisers' Association (LIMA) has come on board,
joining Diamond Comic Distributors, among others, as a co-sponsor
of the event. LIMA's participation will open the show to the
licensing community.

The fact that the New York Comic-Con will have a "trade day," and
that LIMA and so many key companies from pop culture-related
industries will be exhibiting should make the New York Comic-Con
an extremely attractive and useful destination for pop culture
retailers.

'Ju-On' Helmer Tackles 'Parasyte'
From Manga to Live Action Film
 September 21, 2005
Takashi Shimizu, who directed both the Japanese horror smash Ju-
On and its successful American re-make, The Grudge, has signed on
to helm an adaptation of Hitosi Iwaaki's Parasyte manga -- a
science fiction chiller about alien spores that land on Earth and
take over human bodies.  New Line Cinema and the Jim Henson Co.
are co-producing the live action Parasyte movie, which won't be
able to go into production until Shimizu finishes The Grudge 2
for Columbia.

The 12-volume Parasyte manga was one of the first series
published by Tokyopop in the U.S.  Then known as Mixx
Entertainment, Tokyopop published all 12 volumes of Parasyte here
in the States between 1998 and 2002.  If and when the live action
Parasyte film goes into production, don't be surprised to see
Tokyopop reissue the Parasyte manga series.

NBM Has 'Bluesman' Saga
Formerly From Absence of Ink
 September 21, 2005
NBM has acquired the North American publishing rights to Rob
Vollmar and Pablo Callejo's Bluesman graphic novel series.  After
publishing one volume Absence of Ink Comic Press told the
creators that it would not be able to release the second volume.
NBM stepped in and will publish the second 80-page installment of
the Bluesman saga in January as well as reissuing the first
volume at the same time.

Vollmar and Callejo received an Eisner nomination for their first
graphic novel collaboration, The Castaways, but the two Bluesman
volumes are even more worthy of acclaim.  Structured like a
traditional twelve bar blues, with three sections each made up of
four chapters, the Bluesman saga follows the harrowing adventures
of the itinerant blues musician Lem Taylor as he flees across
Arkansas in the late 1920s, hunted for a crime he did not commit,
roaming from one juke joint to another.

It is easy to see why this series is a hit in Spain and France
(countries where blues music is more popular than in the U.S.) --
Vollmar's writing demonstrates a great affinity for the country
blues medium as well as a good deal of historical research that
grounds the Bluesman graphic novels in the hardscrabble realities
of the deep South during the brutal Jim Crow era, while Callejo's
graphic style interprets the visual aspects of the saga with an
authentic feeling for the music and the period unmatched since R.
Crumb drew his classic Heroes of the Blues cards.

Comics Get Good Grades Again From 'Entertainment Weekly'
 September 21, 2005
In this week's edition of Entertainment Weekly's "Comic Books
101" four different reviewers gave good grades to four new comic
book and graphic novel releases.  Chris Ware's Acme Novelty
Library hardcover from Pantheon got an "A" from Nisha Gopalan,
who couldn't resist the "meticulously detailed comics of
unmistakable Ware-iness" mixed in with those inimitable faux ads,
"like the one touting feudalism."

Abby West gave Kyle Baker's self-published Nat Turner comic book,
which is based on Turner's own account of the slave revolt he
led, an "A-" calling it "a hauntingly beautiful historical
spotlight.  Andrew Crosby's Damn Nation, published by Dark Horse,
also received an "A-" from Marc Bernardin, who loved the "sharp
political satire" and the zombie saga's familiar feel -- "the
really good stories always feel like they've been around
forever."

Joe Casey and Tom Scioli's Godland (from Image) got the lowest
grade in the class, but, what the heck it was a "B+" and reviewer
Tom Sinclair said that "anyone who gets all misty thinking about
Stan Lee and Jack Kirby's classic run on Fantastic Four will love
Godland -- not exactly a bad recommendation.

Baltimore Comic-Con Attendance Doubles

 Industry News, Scoop, Friday, September 23, 2005
Marv Wolfman was the Guest of Honor, the Teen Titans were the
theme, and comics were the subject as the Baltimore Comic-Con
celebrated its sixth annual show with this year's event at the
Baltimore Convention Center September 17-18, 2005.

The two-day show, which was followed by a Diamond Comic
Distributors/Alliance Game Distributors Retailer Summit, enjoyed
its best attendance ever. Marc Nathan, the show's promoter, said
that attendance at this year's sixth annual show doubled the
previous record.

"I don't want to get into the new math that conventions seem to
be using in determining numbers lately, but I will say, based
upon how packed the show was, and retailer response on both
Saturday and Sunday, I am very grateful to have had such great
guests to help double attendance at the Baltimore Comic-Con," he
said in a press release.

Many of the creators, retailers and publishers echoed the
estimation of the crowd size.

"We had a fantastic time in Baltimore," said Shi creator Billy
Tucci. "It doesn't surprise me at all to hear that the attendance
increased substantially. Combine that with the wonderful fans and
the great way Marc and the con staff treat everyone and you can
see why this show is a hit. We had a line at our booth for almost
the entire show."

"It was definitely easy to see that the show was more crowded,
particularly on Saturday, which was really packed," said John
Clark, Editor-in-Chief/Disney Comics for Gemstone Publishing.
"Don Rosa was set up right next to us and had a line for the
entire show. It was really enjoyable to see first hand the
reaction to The Life & Times of Scrooge McDuck from the Baltimore
fans."

Next year's Baltimore Comic-Con is set for September 9-10, 2006.

Exile On Main Street
By Blair Marnell

Welcome back to another edition of ATR. Alright, enough talk.
Let's rip this joint.

Grr... Argh...

There's some surprising news from the House of Marvel this week.
It seems that there will be a new five issue miniseries spinning
out of Mark Millar and Greg Land's current Ultimate Fantastic
Four story arc. As readers of that title already know, it deals
with Ultimate Reed Richards journeying to an alternate Earth
overrun by zombie versions of Marvel's superheroes. The way I
hear it, the new miniseries is called Marvel Zombies and takes
place entirely on Earth 615, Earth Z, the Zombie world... whatever
they're gonna call it. Someone will probably come up with a new
name for that world. As for the creative team, the mini is being
written by none other than Robert Kirkman, who's had a lot of
zombie experience on his creator owned title, The Walking Dead.
Sean Phillips (Sleeper) is said to be the artist attached to this
project. The early word is that the Marvel Zombies miniseries
will be out in December. If so, I think we can expect an official
announcement sometime soon...

This Has A "Hulk Is The Hungriest One There Is!" Factor of Ten

Amazon Rumors On The Moon

Over at his Yahoo group, Adam Hughes had some strong words
regarding Rich Johnston's latest LITG, in which Hughes was said
to be two issues in on All Star Wonder Woman:

Quick rumor control: I'm not two issues into ANY project right
now. I'm busy trying to repair some corrupted files from a
complete computer crash and subsequent (semi-successful) data
rescue that happened right before Dragon*Con. I just finished my
SERENITY cover, trying to polish off CATWOMAN 48 touch-ups, gotta
start CATWOMAN 50, and a million other things.

REPEAT: I have not started any interior work yet. I have no
reason to lie. I would LOVE to brag that I'm 2 issues into a
project. LYING IN THE GUTTERS is fabricating lies and falsehoods.
I have never spoken to that guy, he's never e-mailed or called us
to do any kind of fact-checking whatsoever. He's never responded
to Allison's offers to provide fact-confirmation. He's also
gotten the details of our SERENITY raffle WRONG. Please tell
everyone you know that this guy is not a journalist, don't think
you are getting facts from him.

Johnston replies:

Never had an email from Allison that I recall, and I never write
unfounded stories. This came directly from someone at DC. Which
means something is odd here.

Someone is spinning. And I don't know why. Will amend and retract
based on what you've posted here, Allison. Many apologies.

Just so you know though. I never make up stories.

To be fair, the rest of Johnston's report appears to be solid.
While Terry Dodson neither confirmed or denied the rumor that he
would be the artist on a relaunched Wonder Woman book, he did say
that he has just received a synopsis for the first issue of his
next project. So, interpret that as you will...

This Has A "Hippolyta's Belt" Factor of Seven Out of Ten

Cybertronian Horizon

There have been a few rumblings about "a big weekly Transformers
event" next summer from IDW. Details are sketchy at the moment,
but I'm told that it's not a crossover. So don't expect 30 Days
of Transformers or anything like that.

But then again, that could have been fun too...

This Has A "Space Bridge" Factor of Six Out of Ten

Harsh Light of Day

One of our ATR Associates at Harris has passed along some tidbits
about the upcoming Vampirella: Revelations maxiseries.
SPOILER WARNING!
Peruse the text below with your cursor if you don't mind
spoilers.


Mike Carey's arc destroys Vampirella's identity and forces her to
start establishing a new one virtually from scratch. Over the
course of the maxi-series she's overwhelmed by feelings of
isolation and helplessness which she overcompensates for with a
new meanness and arrogance she throws up as a shield. In the
second arc written by Priest, as part of establishing a new
identity she adopts a civilian persona where she'll put on
civilian clothing when she's not fighting evil. Eventually though
these harsher feelings break down when she discovers she does
have family left: her old companion Pendragon. Thing is, he may
or may not have just been murdered and she goes off in search of
the truth....


This Has A "Blood Flow" Factor of Nine Out of Ten

All Lost Souls Sign In Here

As a creator, Colleen Doran is best known for A Distant Soil,
though her collaborations with Warren Ellis on Stealth Tribes and
Orbiter have earned her several new fans. For her latest project,
Doran is teaming with J. Michael Straczynski on The Book of Lost
Souls, a monthly book under Marvel's ICON imprint. While this is
their first time working together, Doran's association with
Straczynski goes way back, as she elaborates:

I first met J Michael Straczynski about ten years ago at a Wizard
World convention in Chicago. I was a major Babylon 5 fan and
Walter Koenig was there also, so I was in giggly fangirl mode. I
went to one of the event parties and got them to sign my name
badge. I was so nervous to meet Straczynski and he was very
gracious and tolerant because I was an utter boob. Completely
enamored of his work. He mentioned that he liked my work too, but
I was sure he was just being polite.

Then about a year ago, I was having a professional problem and
out of the blue, I got this very kind note from him. He had
tracked down my email and taken the time to jot me a little
letter to pep me up. That was incredibly decent of him. I
couldn't believe that someone I admired as much as Straczynski
was taking the time out to drop me a line like that, especially
since I have had no contact with the guy except for saying "Hi!"
to him at a couple of conventions.

He went on to mention that he had a project in mind and wanted to
keep the lines open in case I might be interested. I didn't want
to get my hopes up, but when a script showed up some months
later, I was drooling at the chance to get the gig. It was such a
great concept! I really, really wanted this job!

I went ahead and did some audition pages, and then I waited a
very uncomfortable time to hear the news. I knew they had some
other real talents up for the gig, but I got the call from The
Great Maker and I was just squealing into the phone! I was so
happy! I think I blew Straczynski's eardrums out.

I had a look in mind for the work, a style I have not really used
before. I always change my art style to fit the project, so there
are some similarities in the work I am doing on Lost Souls to the
look I came up with for Orbiter, but Lost Souls is more developed
and in some ways, more detailed. And it was very important that I
do the inks as well. Inkers have a terrible time with my work
because a lot of my stylistic quirks are unique to me and some
inkers don't understand what I am doing. Sometimes they just get
frustrated and take the details right out, going over large areas
with flat black to save time. Moreover, my hatching techniques
are almost impossible to draw in pencil, so it's murder trying to
draw them so an inker can go over them and match them. It just
seems like an enormous waste of time for me to work with an inker
when I can do all the work myself faster than I can pencil a book
alone. Since I am doing all of my own art on this book, I don't
have to worry about adjusting a style to match the inker's
expectations. For example, I can work with my customary tools and
at my own preferred size original art which is quite small at
less than 8"x12". This saves a lot of time. And I just do quick
breakdowns and go straight to ink, so I can complete a full issue
in a month, with a few days left over for fudge factor. This
project has pretty much convinced me that I won't be working with
inkers anymore. As good as Bob Wiacek was on Reign of the Zodiac
inks, the book would have gone much faster with me doing the inks
and pencils alone.

In a couple of issues, there are fantasy sequences, portions of
the story that take place outside of reality, and I use another
art style on those sequences. Part of it is printed directly from
pencil. This is easy for me to do myself, not so simple with an
art team. And of course, the colors just make the thing pop. It
looks so gorgeous. I am really excited to see my work with this
fancy computer process color in a monthly book.

The Book of Lost Souls is about as Vertigo a project as Marvel
has attempted in many a year. It's not a superhero book. It's
gothic in tone. I am really in love with this project. Jonathan
is the main character, a young man who, in 19th century London,
decides he has no future after being rejected by his only love,
rejected by his family, pushed aside at University. He's standing
on a bridge when we meet him, ready to dive off. A man
approaches, a man carrying a large book. He blithely tells
Jonathan he can have the book as a dead weight. It will help him
sink when he drops off the bridge. Nice.

Anyway, Jonathan takes the book and takes the plunge. When we
next see him, it's the 21st century and he goes on to meet the
extremely creepy Dark man, Mystery the talking cat, and is
saddled with his tasks in the afterlife: affecting the destinies
of Lost Souls like himself.

Jonathan is a romantic figure in the classical sense. Not a sappy
bodice ripper from a romance novel, but a brokenhearted idealist
who lives an expansive adventure. It's nice for me as the artist
that he is also terribly handsome and wears a cool Victorian
coat. My job is a real pleasure, I must say.

If you're expecting Touched by an Angel, forget it. This book has
references to angelic lore, but not everything about angelic lore
is warm and fuzzy. We're not really sure what we're dealing with
in this story. We have some happy endings. We have some not so
happy endings. Readers are not certain where this book is going
to be heading.

Lost Souls is a new direction for Marvel and I am anxious to see
how this all plays out. As a reader, the project has me hooked. I
don't even want to know where it is heading until I get script. I
want to have fresh eyes with each book. I am working on issue
four right now, so we are really chugging along at a good pace.
It's good to have this kind of project as a monthly, too. Reign
of the Zodiac involved extensive costume and set design every
issue, but Lost Souls is grounded in reality for the most part,
so I am not having to invent new styles of architecture and dress
on every page, so I can concentrate on draughtsmanship and
storytelling.

So far, everyone who has seen it says it is my best work. It is
atmospheric and textured, and I am happy with the range. It is
quite different than the style I use on A Distant Soil, which is
more lyrical and pretty, but the figure work is more developed
than on Orbiter. I am very excited about this project and am
enjoying it immensely! This is the kind of book I would be
reading, but it is even more fun to be drawing it!!!

This Has A "Dreamtime" Factor of Ten Out of Ten

Intimidation Game

Neil Kleid (Ninety Candles) is writing a new series for Jim
Valentino's Shadowline called The Intimidators, about a 1960s
superhero who is brought to the present and stuck with a team of
amoral modern heroes in "a world beset by robot mafia, killer
models and Republicans." So basically, it's like Captain America
joining the Authority.

Sounds like fun... And I like the tagline: "Attacking Evil Where It
Lives - And Kicking It While It's Down! Repeatedly!"

Art chores are being handled by Miguel Montenegro, whose work can
be seen here. http://www.miguelmontenegro.com/

Expect this one in December.

Michael Oeming has posted some sketches from his upcoming What If

the art and Robert Kirkman is onboard to script it.

Who's That Girl?

I've heard that Peter Milligan and Duncan Fegredo's Girl, a three
issue miniseries from Vertigo (from 1996) might be up for a trade
paperback. Which took me by surprise, since I thought that there
had already been a trade, but apparently not...

This Has A "My Life As A Corpse" Factor of Seven Out of Ten

Futurius Tense

Daniel Lundie sent us a few preview pages from the Futurius:
Tales From The Plex anthology coming out around the end of
November. The art is by Pedro Santos and Matt Weldon from stories
by Chad Nevett and Blake M. Petit, respectively.

Lundie also extended an invitation to ATR readers who might want
to be involved with the book. They're actively looking for extra
artists, inkers and letterers. Anyone who can contribute those
talent are welcome to join up at
http://www.futurius.net/plex/index.php and visit the members-only
Studio Futurius Plus forum for the FAQs and full info.

This Has A "Node Warriors" Factor of Eight Out of Ten

Just a reminder before I sign off, the Inkwell Auctions for
Hurricane Katrina victims are still ongoing and new auctions were
added as recently as last Friday. The newest auctions include
original artwork by Lee Bermejo, Mike Mayhew, Michael Gaydos and
Tim Bradstreet, along with a signed Stan Lee Spider-Man movie
script from the 60s.

For more info, please go to http://www.inkwellrelief.com

That's all folks. See you in seven.

Later,
Blair
