Is it really only going to be two issues? I think I remember Joe himself tweeting that it is going to be three issues...Ah well, whatever it is, I can't wait for Wednesday!

I thought it would be three issues as well, but I read that it may only be two issues.

That's a killer Wolverine. The character seems to lack so much of 'Wolverine' in the past decade. It's great to see these guys portray him accurately. Looks great.

Checked Joe's Twitter...he said it will be "three issues, full interiors" hopefully that's the case. The more Joe art, the better! Wednesday coming on strong!
Mike said…
I think you're right Tom. Marvel has issue #8 listed as being drawn by Joe so it has to be three! Thank goodness

Now that I read the entire issue I can say that it lacks something.
The drawings are cool, but the colors and the story per se aren't that good.
Maybe I'm a little disapponted because the colors in avengig spiderme were and are really top notch...

I think this worked better than Avenging Spider-man. I really don't read Spider-man books, but I loved Mad's Wolverine here and I loved the way he was written.

...and Ninjas! Joe Mad confirmed something I had suspected about this new digital inking style he was going for, which was, that it was made to have a charcoal-like feel. I think this issue looked a lot better than his Avenging stuff.

Read through the book twice now, really enjoyed it. I think this is the perfect story for Joe to be doing at Marvel. If I have a minor complaint, it's that the art gets a bit muddy in places with the coloring technique and some of the subtlety of the pencils seems to be lost. Otherwise, it's a homerun and I can't wait for the next issue.

Art Advice 2.0 from Joe Madureira

Joe Madureira has continued voicing his art advice with details on what gear he uses, his influences, and skills needed for working in the game or comic industry. Art Advice 2.0 Now for the specific art questions I do get very often:   1-I use a technical pencil with HB lead 99% of the time. Staedler, Koo-in-oor, Prismacolor Turquoise, it’s all good. Take your pick. I use them all. Sometimes I work on paper that’s a little different ( smoother or more coarse ) and I may move up or down to an H or a B lead if needed. But I find H and 2H digs into the pap er and is too hard to erase ( Which sadly I do a lot of ) and B is too soft ( smudges like a mofo.) B is fantastic for going back over lines, darkening , and adding weight to your lines. Basically, ‘inking’ with a pencil. **Just keep a sheet of scrap paper under your hand or you will smudge the shit out of your drawing!!!** HB suits my needs 99% of the time. Really no need to switch it out, just adjust your pressure. Harder or lig

50th Anniversary of the X-Men

Marvel is releasing a poster to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the X-Men. Joe Madureira's art is featured at the bottom. It's repurposed artwork but it's a cool poster none the less.

NYCC Battle Chasers Sketches

Joe Madureira has finished his two new Battle Chasers sketches for the New York Comic Con. They'll be 11x17 prints available in Artists Alley table L2. Signing times are 10:30am-12:00pm and 3:00pm-4:30pm Friday-Sunday during the New York Comic Con. Joe also answered a few questions about the prints. 1) Yes, Monika's boobs have gotten a little smaller (!) 2) Poor Garrison was going to be featured in his own print, but I didn't have time, and he ruined the composition of the team shot. So--I promise I'll do one of him for the next show. I didn't forget him! 3) I will look into some sort of online store where you can buy stuff without going to a convention. 4) These two particular prints are grayscale and resemble penciled line art on an 11x17 bristol board. Ie. It looks like pencils. I will have 3 other full color prints available that some of you may have seen at SDCC. 5) Yes, I do hope to get back to Battle Chasers someday. I do still love these characters, whi
