Artist Alley: Big Ideas and Small Moments Take Root in “Trees” with Jason Howard [Interview]

By David Harper | Aug 25, 2014 | Columns, Interviews

It’s safe to say that Warren Ellis and Jason Howard’s “TREES” is a comic completely unlike any others on the stand. It’s a slow burn, but the deliberate, almost clinical pace they’re taking to building the world and its denizens is intoxicating in the same way that something like Steven Soderbergh’s “Contagion” was. It doesn’t […]

Steve Bryant Battles Nazis, Monsters and More With “Athena Voltaire” [Interview]

By Leo Johnson | Aug 22, 2014 | Interviews

There’s a lot of talk nowadays about having strong female characters leading comics and how there’s just not enough of them. Of course, many don’t bother to look at the comics that might not be well known, those that don’t get all the press — comics like Steve Bryant’s “Athena Voltaire” that has been slowly and steadily operating […]

Artist Alley: Sean Phillips and the Dark Side of Hollywood in “The Fade Out” [Interview]

By David Harper | Aug 20, 2014 | Columns, Interviews

Today brings the arrival of the latest entry into Sean Phillips and Ed Brubaker’s growing library of stunning collaborations, as “The Fade Out” debuts at Image Comics. This title, which is a murder mystery (in a way) set in the glittery facade and shady corners of 1940’s Hollywood, is an absolute thrill, and maybe their […]

Exclusive: Ed Brisson Brings “Sheltered” to a Close, “The Field” to the Big Screen [Interview]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 19, 2014 | Interviews

We’ve long been fans of the work of Ed Brisson here at Multiversity and never felt the need to hide it. From his phenomenal self-released “Murder Books” to “Comeback” with Mike Walsh and Jordie Bellaire from Image, Brisson is a burgeoning talent in the industry (let alone being the guy that letters more than half […]

Digging into the World of “The Fade Out” with Ed Brubaker [Interview]

By David Harper and Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 18, 2014 | Interviews

Out of all of the big names in modern monthly comics, the one writer we hadn’t spoken to before that we wanted to most was Ed Brubaker. Personally speaking,that was a shame, as he’s a guy who has been writing some of my favorite comics for over a decade, with his collaborations with artist Sean […]

James Tynion IV Crafts “An Intense and Wild Ride to the End of Humanity” With “Memetic” [Interview]

By James Johnston | Aug 18, 2014 | Interviews

Memes. In recent years, the phrase has come to define internet culture through innumerable in-jokes shared and permutated to the point of ad nauseam.But what if the innocuous images we share through Tumblr, Twitter or Facebook if you’re a sad old person held some unspeakable power? With the rate at which information spreads these days, […]

Jeremy Holt Tackles The Deep South and Racism with “Southern Dog” [Interview]

By Leo Johnson | Aug 13, 2014 | Interviews

Comics can be a fickle business. Even if a series starts to be published, that doesn’t always mean it’ll keep going. It might fall into the graveyard of failed ideas or maybe it’ll just be put into storage for a few years, but it’s happened to many creators. Case in point is Jeremy Holt’s comic […]

Reading and Deciphering the Madness Behind “The Wrenchies” with Farel Dalrymple [Interview/Review]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 12, 2014 | Interviews, Reviews

In fiction there’s a rich tradition of celebrating a medium of storytelling by creating a story about it. It’s something you can see across the board in most popular storytelling mediums, whether in film with things like Barton Fink or Singin’ in the Rain or in fiction with “If on a Winter’s Night a Traveller” […]

Lemire and Kindt Team-Up on “The Valiant” [Interview]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 5, 2014 | Interviews

While on the scene at SDCC, in between the time spent soaking in the general fever dream feeling of being inside of that insane event, I trekked across the city away from the convention in search of something else — something fearless, something strong-willed and noble… something Valiant. In a well-decorated, cozy little condo away from the convention hall, Valiant made […]

Semahn and Corona Get Gone With “Goners” at Image [Interview]

By Leo Johnson | Aug 4, 2014 | Interviews

Coming in October is “Goners”, a new Image title which in itself is something to get excited for. Even better is that writer Jacob Semahn and artist Jorge Corona are pulling from a vast amount of influences to make the coolest kid-centric supernatural/mystery/adventure story since Jonny Quest. “Goners” follows the Latimers, a family that has protected the […]

Mignolaversity: Big Changes in “Baltimore” with Golden, Stenbeck, Bergting, and Allie [Interview]

By Mark Tweedale | Jul 31, 2014 | Interviews

I hope you enjoyed the first issue of Baltimore: The Witch of Harju yesterday. We’re in a new phase of the series now! It seems like a good time to have a chat with the creative team behind the books about it all, don’t you think? Originally, Mike Mignola conceived of Baltimore as a comic, […]

By Vince Ostrowski | Jul 28, 2014 | Interviews

But this fall, Frampton wants to do something a […]

“Motorcycle Samurai” Cruises Into Another Year and New Territory [Interview]

By Leo Johnson | Jul 24, 2014 | Interviews

Debuting last year at SDCC, “Motorcycle Samurai” by Chris Sheridan was something of a first for Top Shelf. As guided-view native comics started to be a something that more and more creators and publishers were doing, Top Shelf took a chance and gave Sheridan, an essentially unknown creator, an opportunity to tell his story in […]

Image Expo: Eric Stephenson and the Comic Industry of Tomorrow [Exclusive Interview]

By David Harper | Jul 23, 2014 | Interviews

When you get the chance to interview Image Comics publisher Eric Stephenson, you take it. After all, in his hands, Image has went from a publisher on the verge to the very bleeding edge of comics, and helping push creator-owned as not just an idea but a movement to another level. That alone makes him […]

Image Expo: Delving into the Chaos of “Injection” with Declan Shalvey [Exclusive Interview]

By David Harper | Jul 23, 2014 | Interviews, News

If you’re like… well, pretty much everyone who has read it, you’ve loved Warren Ellis, Declan Shalvey and Jordie Bellaire’s run on “Moon Knight”, and you were frankly mortified by the departure of two thirds of that team after the upcoming sixth issue. There’s a good reason why you feel that way, as Ellis has […]

Image Expo: Ivan Brandon and Nic Klein’s “Drifter” Crashes Down at Image [Exclusive Interview]

By David Harper | Jul 23, 2014 | Interviews, News

In such a well worn genre like science fiction, it takes quite a bit to stand out. In comics, that can be the case even more so, but for “Drifter”, Ivan Brandon and Nic Klein’s upcoming science fiction series that was just announced at today’s Image Expo, that certainly won’t be a problem. Why? Because […]

The Fun and the Fundamental of “Howtoons: [Re]ignition” with Fred Van Lente and Nick Dragotta [Interview]

By David Harper | Jul 22, 2014 | Interviews

One of the books I’ve been looking forward to the most since January’s Image Expo was the return of Nick Dragotta, Saul Griffith, Joost Bonsen and Ingrid Dragotta’s “Howtoons”, a comic that isn’t just a comic, but an educational science how-to comic. The web series had earned a lot of publicity for teaching kids science […]
