Walt Simonson And The Mighty Thor To Get IDW Artist's Edition
Scott Dunbier was the man who created the Absolute format at DC, showcasing comic book work in a very European high quality oversized fashion.
Then at IDW he created the Artist's Edition, effectively reproducing original art boards bound in a volume, with the Dave Stevens' Rocketeer: Artist's Edition.
Well now there is a second Artist Edition. In an unprecedented deal with Marvel Comics, IDW will publish the Walt Simonson's The Mighty Thor: Artist's Edition, recreating original art boards for the Marvel series. Reproducing pencils under the ink, blue lines, yellow pages, whiteout, essentially what Walt submitted to his editors, at 12" x 17" size, 176 pages containing issues 337-340 and360-362 for $100, published in July.
And what's more, there are more Marvel art projects to come, with different artists and different projects.
Damn. So… who and what do you want to see next?
