Carnage and Curse Of Man-Thing Both Have Messy Creative Changes

The new anthology series Carnage: Black, White And Blood, being published by Marvel Comics in March, has undergone a number of creative changes.

The first issue was solicited as being written by Donny Cates, Benjamin Percy and Tini Howard, and drawn by Sara Pichelli and Ken Lashley.

Now Marvel is telling retailers that the first issue will now drop Donny Cates in favour of Al Ewing, while adding John McCrea as an artist.

While the second issue was solicited as being written by Chip Zdarsky, Al Ewing and Ram V, with Marco Checchetto as an artist. As you might expect, Al Ewing has been switched with Donny Cates, and now drawn by Kyle Hotz and… Ram V? Is Ram making his artistic debut at Marvel? That's what they are telling retailers.

There is a similar switch around with the Curse Of The Man-Thing one-shots. Avengers: Curse Of The Man-Thing was solicited as drawn by Francesco Mobili, but Marvel told retailers it would now be drawn by Marco Fialla. But this week, Marvel has told retailers that Avengers: Curse Of The Man-Thing #1 would now be drawn by Francesco Mobili after all. And that Spider-Man: Curse Of The Man-Thing #1 is now drawn by Marco Fialla and not the previously solicited Alberto Foche.

We may get more changes to come, but that's the current state of affairs…
