Joe Hill and Mike Allred On a Marvel Comic Together in August?
This feels a bit like a birth announcement. And it kinda is – but we're going to get sextuplets. It looks like Marvel Comics are going to have some big launches or new creative teams on a number of titles in August. People you might not expect to be working for Marvel, teamed up with those you might. And a few names you'd have sworn had sworn off creating comics anymore. But will be very grateful to have them back. We'll be running a few of those names tonight in Bleeding Cool, just keep an eye on the feed. Or you can catch up with them all with this handy tag at a later date. We're calling them Marvel's August Vistors, though they, no doubt will have their own title to be revealed in due course.
And the first of these tonight is Joe Hill and Mike Allred.
Joe Hill is the son of Stephen King, a novelist in his own right, and author the hit comic book horror series Locke & Key. He wrote a Spider-Man Unlimited story for Marvel about 15 years ago, but that's all I can find. And now he appears to be teaming up with Madman creator Mike Allred, who has recently drawn Silver Surfer and the upcoming X-Statix comic book.,
What they are doing together, we haven't a clue. Just that whatever it is, they are doing it together and for Marvel. Maybe. What do you think? And what should they be working on together?
