Battle Chasers Anthology out April 13th or July 12th?

Now, six months after it's proposed November 10th, 2010 release date the Battle Chasers Anthology delay is scheduled to be released on either April 13th, 2011 (Based on the Image Comics Website) or July 12th, 2011 (Based on Amazon.com). This isn't final but just the expected release date... hopefully we'll get it in our hands on it this year. Amazon still has a discount on the pre-order ($63 for the $100 Hardcover and $93 for the $150 Hardcover).

I'm sick of waiting. I don't know what is the problem.

I too have been waiting since the original November release date. First it was going to be an early Channukah present. Then a late Channukah present. Then a late birthday present. Now...I'm just waiting for the damn thing to come out already!

It would be nice if someone in the know were to let fans know what the holdup is. I find it kind of sad that this anthology mirrors the delays with the original issues. And the books are already finished! Was there a printing error? More sketches being added? New artwork being created?

And what's with the price change? The discount shown on Amazon's website was better when it had the March 8th release date; close to 50% off! Now it's back to the original discount? Considering how long this has been delayed, there should AT LEAST be a 50% discount!

Very frustrating.

Maybe they have problems with DC for legal rights in some issues... But I didn't know. I ordered mine in a Shop here in Barcelona... And I think my comic will be out before this BC Hardcover.

These delays are a bummer. It would be nice to hear some statement on the issue from Joe or someone at Image.

Hollywood Reporter Interview with Joe Madureira and new Battle Chasers 10 Artwork by Ludo Lullabi

Joe Madureira did a small interview with The Hollywood Reporter about the in-progress continuation of Battle Chasers 10-12 written by Joe and drawn by Ludo Lullabi. I'll pull out some of the highlights below. About Battle Chasers 10: The new comic is due to hit by year’s end, once again from publisher Image Comics, and will be followed monthly by no. 11 and no. 12, with a goal to tell a complete story arc. Madureira is writing the comic but, as opposed to the previous issues, not drawing. Instead, he handed those duties to Ludo Lullabi, whom he discovered while making 2017’s Battle Chasers: Nightwar role playing game. He does plan on drawing variant covers , however. And to whet appetites, the return issue will be 32 pages, no ads. "I just want to make a cool comic that people talk about," Madureira says. "It may be a little more edgier, a bit more mature than before. I’m curious to see how it will be received." About Battle Chasers delays; past and present: Ma...

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...
