– Marvel unveiled another teaser, this one being a “BAMF!” one with the names Chris Claremont and Todd Nauck involved. Easy to assume it’s a Nightcrawler book of some variety, probably a mini, and I’m sure we’ll hear something today about this. That said, pretty uninspired team if you ask me, especially given how big of risk takers Marvel’s been by highlighting creators like Kaare Andrews and Ales Kot/Michael Walsh. Seems more like a DC move, even though Claremont does have an incredible legacy with the character and Nauck is a talented guy.

According to Deadline, there’s no truth to the reports that Marvel and Johnny Depp are meeting about Doctor Strange (at least recently). Who knows really in today’s world of reporting which report is true, though.

– CBR talks with Scott Snyder about his recently announced Image title “Wytches”. It’s a brief look at the book, but it gives you some insight into details about the book, including the idea that the book will come out in five or six issue chunks like Brubaker and Phillips’ Criminal and Incognito used to be released in.

– Amazing Spider-Man is getting an Infinite Comic from Josh Fialkov and Juan Bobillo in April, and Marvel.com talks to Fialkov about this upcoming book.

– Lucy Knisley, of “Relish” and “French Milk” fame, signed a two-book deal with Fantagraphics, led by the upcoming travelogue “An Age of License” (set to arrive by fall) and then with another, titled “Displacement”, that is set to arrive in 2015. Congrats to Lucy, and we’re looking forward to reading them.

– Declan Shalvey provides a look at what his layouts look like, specifically in this instance for Moon Knight #3. Totally cool for art nerds such as myself.

– Terry Moore is hosting a contest on Twitter under the hashtag #KillMeZoe to, shockingly, get killed by Zoe in an upcoming issue of Rachel Rising. What are the rules of the contest? Moore hasn’t announced it yet, but it should be coming in the next week.
