Ultimates 3 #1 to have a second print!

Great news for Joe Madureira fans, the first issue of Ultimates Volume 3 sold out and will have a second print. The cover will feature the splash page with Valkyrie about to cut Venom, expect it to hit shelves on January 16th.


Also, there was a bit of a backlash on the printing quality of the first issue, it was dark and muddy which made it very moody (which was great in my opinion). Anyway the second print may be altered to have better printing... here is was the colourist had to say.


So I finally got a copy. Don't ask why it's taken this long, but trust me it wasn't easy.

The book printed so incredibly dark, I have a difficult time trying to stay positive about anything. The book sold out, and the thought that they're all out there, this dark and muddy, is really hard to take.

I'm trying to find out if there's anything I can do about this for the 2nd printing. I'm really hoping that there is, as I'll do anything to try to get this fixed.

Besides that, get ready for Ultimates Volume 3 Issue 2 on January 23rd!

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...

Joe Madureira Comic Collection Checklist

I found a neat comicbook community site called 'League of Comic Geeks' that's a great resource to organize your personal collection, manage your pull list of upcoming comics as well as track your reading list. I personally love the simple and clean design of the site and it has just the right amount of information for each book as well as all the covers/variant covers of issues. There's a feature called 'Community Lists' where you can post anything from story arc reading orders, to famous cover swipes over the years. I went ahead and made a Joe Madureira comic collection checklist that contains most of his works in comics! If it's something you're interested in you can check it out at League of Comic Geeks: Joe Madureira Comic Collection Checklist , and I will add it to my collection page on this site as well. Enjoy!
