Joe Madureira ! Fansite

Over at ComicsPlace.net they have an 11 Page preview of Avenging Spider Man #1. The pages kind of look like scans from the issue... so I may have to take these down if asked. Anyway enjoy! I think they look amazing!

Today Joe Madureira was signing at the Vigil Games booth during GDC Online . The boys at Vigil posted this picture of Joe in action on their twitter this afternoon. Enjoy!

Avenging Spider-Man will be released November 9th, 2011 for $3.99. It will be the first Marvel comic to be shipped polybagged with a code inside for a free digital copy to be read on the Marvel Comics app.

Joe Madureira posted some old and new artwork on his facebook page! It includes the Michael Turner Tribute, a new Avenging Spider-Man page, Darksiders Concept art, The Battle Chasers Hard Cover Pencils and the Battle Chasers Hardcover Pull Out Poster. Also, for those of you going to the New York Comic Con Joe Madureira recently said that he won't be able to make it this year... So it looks like I will NOT be in New York in October for NYCC. Sorry guys. Plans fell through. But on the bright side--I'll be at the studio working on Spidey pages. Which is good. Believe me!!!!

With San Diego comic-con well underway Marvel has released new images of Avenging Spider-Man #1 due out this November. They were revealed during the "Amazing Spider-Man and His Avenging Friends" panel. Here's some talk from the panel: Wells talks Avenging Spider-Man: "We just want to tell big, fun stories, with some of the best artists in the business. We're going to try to bring in as many of the Marvel A-listers as we can," Wacker says Joe Madureira can "flat out draw. He's up there with Humberto." "I'm really impressed with his storytelling," Wells added. So it sounds like even though it's an ongoing series, Joe Madureira may not be the only artist on board to draw it. It's really not all that surprising since Joe Madureira already has a busy schedule working on the Darksiders video game series. Enjoy the pages!

The San Diego Comic Con starts this week and I've just found out that Joe Madureira will be signing at Marvels booth on Friday from 2-3pm. He'll be with Jeph Loeb so I'm assuming there will be Avenging Spider-Man posters to be signed. Let me know if any of you go to the signing! *********UPDATE:********** In addition to the signing at the Marvel booth Friday @ 2pm he will be signing SATURDAY from 4pm-6pm at booth 4445 (Future US Publishing).

HUGE news for Joe Madureira Fans! Starting this November the series features art by Joe Mad and is written by Zeb Wells. Zeb Says “With Dan Slott nailing all the Peter Parker soap opera stuff in Amazing Spider-Man, we wanted to a book about Spider-Man as a super hero, out there in the Marvel Universe with the Avengers. This is the big super action movie of Spider-Man every month, with Joe Mad on art.” Joe says “I was a freaking nerd in high school, so I can relate to Spider-Man. I loved Spider-Man because he was funny. Over the years, depending on the writer, sometimes he’s funny, sometimes he’s not. Zeb is very very funny. I hope I can pull it off, but we’re going to have some good comedy in there with serious big action.” Marvel states “the first arc will see Spider-Man and the Red Hulk headed deep underground to deal with the Mole Man and encountering a brand new threat… Avenging Spider-Man is Marvel Team-Up but where the stories have a major impact on Spider-Man and the Avengers....

It's official, Joe Madureira is working on an unannouced Marvel Comics project as we speak. In an interview yesterday with Newsarama he says, "I'm actually working on a project for Marvel right now. I hope they announce it soon because I'm dying to talk about it!" The rumors are flying on what he's exactly working on and there are several hints to what it could be. One was in the recently released Battle Chasers Anthology in an opening foreward by Jeph Loeb where Jeph says. "I can only hope that he'll strike out again into the vast reaches of the comic book land he once conqured - Maybe even to see him tackle that webhead he loves so much." As well in the Newsarama interview Joe Mad himself says, "I will say it's a character that I've always wanted to work on. Probably my favorite character of all time, since I was a kid. People who follow my work can probably guess what it is!" If these hints suggest anything it's that ...
