Welcome back to The Rundown, our daily breakdown on news stories we missed from the previous day. Have a link to share? Email me at david@multiversitycomics.com.
– Do you like Valiant Comics? Do you like cool comic swag? You’ll love Valiant’s agreement with Cinderblock then, as the vaunted merch crafter is now releasing Valaint specific things like mugs and t-shirts. Check it out, and wear your Valiant love with pride!
– Ever wonder what Morning Glories would look like if Tradd Moore was the artist?
– So apparently Villains Month in September at DC isn’t going to take over each book it aligns with for one month really, it’s going to be a litany of one-shots that take over the production schedule for one month. So instead of The Riddler appearing in Batman, maybe he appears in The Riddler #1? Interesting.
– Well that was fast. David Finch is already off Justice League of America, as Brett Booth will be drawing issues #4 and #5 before Doug Mahnke takes over. At the link, which is a CBR interview, Booth talks about Backlash at the DCU and his apparent asking of Sean Murphy if he had any interest in drawing the character (whom, I must admit, I loved once upon a time). His answer? I’ll work on The Wake instead, thanks.
– Adam WarRock + The Sixth Gun = The Six. Check out the song and download it to support the show finding a home on another non-NBC network!
– Finally, at Motor City Comic Con, a little kid cosplayed as Stan Lee and took a picture with him. The results are completely hilarious.
