Today on DC’s The Source blog, they announced that the team from Lobo: Highway from Hell – musician Scott Ian and legendary artist Sam Kieth – will take their talents to Hell in a new Etrigan, the Demon mini-series. As an underrepresented character in DC’s mystical community, it will be exciting to see a team try to do something fresh with him. Ian himself is very excited:
Holy crap I am excited to be writing The Demon for DC in 2011! I’ve been a fan of Etrigan since I was kid buying comics off of the racks. Jack Kirby created him for Hell’s sake and now I get to spew Hellfire like it’s never been spewed before. And I get to blow up Las Vegas.
It’s going to be a real vulgar display of power (pun intended).
Thanks DC for sending me to Hell and back!
-Scott Ian
Etrigan fans unite! Make sure to pre-order this bad boy when its release date is revealed.
