Kevin Nowlan Draws The Immortal Hulk in May
Immortal Hulk: Time Of Monsters #1 was solicited from Marvel Comics as being written by Al Ewing, Alex Paknadel, and David Vaughan. And as being drawn by Juan Ferreyra & more. We now know that "more" is the legendary Kevin Nowlan, who will be drawing David Vaughan's story.
Kevin Nowlan first came to the industry's attention in the early 1980s via illustrations in the fan press, most notably The Comics Journal and Amazing Heroes, His first published work for Marvel was Doctor Strange #57 in 1983 and has worked for most everyone since, including a notable stint at Penthouse Comix. The majority of his work has been as a finisher or inker, it is considered a real treat when he draws pencils as well. A description of "Brian Bolland meets Adam Hughes by way of Eric Powell" probably doesn't do him justice. Here's a cover from his previous Immortal Hulk: Flatline.
He also co-created Jack B Quick with Alan Moore for Tomorrow Stories and contributed character designs to Batman: The Animated Series, most notably The Penguin, The Mad Hatter, and the Man-Bat. He has a tendency to jump into a title for an issue, show everyone how it's done, and then disappear, leaving everyone he leaves behind weeping.
Here is all the Immortal Hulk-related solicits for May. You'll miss it when it's gone.
