First Look At Some ‘Sam and Twitch: The Writer’ Artwork And Pages
A few weeks ago we brought you a first look at Image’s new bi-weekly series revolving around the popular ‘Spawn’ supporting characters Sam and Twitch called ‘THE WRITER’. Since then not much has come up in the way of news about the title, but today the guys over at Broken Frontier interviewed Todd McFarlane himself and gave readers their first look at the upcoming series.
Todd McFarlane Productions has been hard at work on a brand new mini-series featuring everyone’s favorite sleuths from the Spawn universe.
Sam & Twitch: The Writer, starring NYC’s finest detective duo Sam & Twitch, is the creative child of Luca Blengino (story), Luca Erbetta (pencils), Fabio Bono (inks) and Filippo Rizzu (colors). This team has been crafting a unique crime fiction tale from the boroughs of the Big Apple that sees the detectives stupefied by a strange sequence of events.
Set in the dead of winter with a snowstorm looming, a routine homicide investigation has a literary twist. A suspected drug dealer is found dead, naked and with what seems to be the beginning of a story written all over his body. As the body count rises, the story of Sam & Twitch: The Writer unfolds.
Join this top-notch team of Italian artists and writer as they engage you in a tale — about a tale — that you don’t want to miss.
Sam & Twitch: The Writer will ship bi-weekly starting in May with the final two issues finishing this four issue series in June.
In the wake of the Halloween special on Disney+ back in 2022, Marvel Comics is bringing their Werewolf by Night back to life with a brand new RED BAND comic book series!
What does that mean? Marvel previews, “This summer, Werewolf By Night embarks on new adventures so violent and bloody, it can only be told in Marvel’s new Red Band format!”
Werewolf by Night, Jack Russell’s new solo ongoing series, will be written by Jason Loo, writer of the upcoming Werewolf by Night: Blood Hunt one-shot, and drawn by artist Sergio Dávila, known for his bold work on titles like Venom and Thor.
Marvel’s premier horror icon will undergo a startling transformation during Blood Hunt that will cause his upcoming battles and hunts to be too graphic for some readers.
Labeled with a Parental Advisory and polybagged to keep those weak of heart from experiencing its intensity, Werewolf by Night will mark a new chapter in the character’s 50-year storytelling history as Jack gets his claws, fangs, and fur blood-soaked like never before!
“Full moon rise—werewolf kill! Jack Russell has been trying to live a simple life—but in the deadly and dramatic wake of the Blood Hunt, his life is about to be turned upside down in ways he never imagined! With new enemies hoping to extract a (literal) pound of flesh and Jack unsure if he can be trusted around old allies and a lost love, the original Werewolf by Night is in for the fight of his life… and he’s in it alone!”
“I give Jack Russell a taste of the life he wants before the Blood Hunt event rips it away and leaves blood on his hands,” Loo shared. “His new journey is to find redemption while figuring out his new lycanthropic transformation. No one is safe when the full moon is out. But luckily, Elsa Bloodstone is around to keep him in check.”
“Our team is delivering a very metal, monster comic and we’re not holding back,” Loo continued. “I’m both shocked and impressed at myself for conjuring up these gruesome scenes from the dark recesses of my mind, then seeing them come to life with every gory detail thanks to penciler Sergio Dávila and inker JP Mayer, as our editors keep giving us the thumbs up of approval. This is literally our smash room in a Red Band comic.”
“This has been a great experience,” Dávila added. “Jason Loo is writing a very wild Werewolf By Night and I’m having a lot of fun with the character. I’ve always enjoyed taking characters to the extreme and Werewolf By Night is someone very much tormented by his inner self, so this is a book full of intense action and lots of blood!”
Werewolf by Night #1 will be unleashed on August 14!
