Well, that has been… clarified a little. Because retailers will still get free copies of the second printing – as long as they also order the second issues of Robert Kirkman and Chris Samnee's new series, Fire Power. If a retailer orders ten more copies of Fire Power #2 by the FOC date of this Monday, can[...]

It will still not be made available digitally and will only be available at comic book stores ordering through Diamond Comic Distributors. On the same day, Image/Skybound released their Free Comic Book Day title Fire Power #1 by Robert Kirkman and Chris Samnee alongside the prequel trade paperback I picked up all three, naturally Now Image[...]

Free Comic Book Day was meant to be the first Saturday in May and would have included the Image Comics title Fire Power #1 from The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman and Black Widow/Captain America artist Chris Samnee That was meant to come out just after the original graphic novel, Fire Power: The Prelude at[...]

Bleeding Cool readers will best know Chris Samnee for his collaboration with Mark Waid on Daredevil and Captain America Well, he has a new collaborator now that Waid would find hard to beat, in his wife, Laura Samnee, and together with colourist Matthew Wilson, they are launching a new series of middle-grade graphic novels, beginning[...]

Last month, we told you about Robert Kirkman and Chris Samnee's upcoming comic book series, Fire Power, launching in May 2020 with colors by Matt Wilson and letters by Rus Wooton In the headline, we jokingly teased that Fire Power would be an "Iron Fist comic," a joke that clearly wasn't funny We mean, Fire[...]

Well, that wait is over, Kirkmanbronies, because Kirkman is launching a new comic with Chris Samnee, Matt Wilson, and Rus Wooten called Fire Power about an American named Owen Johnson who travels to a mystical temple in Asia and learns a secret ancient power, becoming a chosen one who will save the world. Iron Fi… we[...]

This one disappointed me greatly and is one of the more painful losses of the week. Captain America #700 cover by Chris Samnee and Matthew Wilson Win: Captain America #700 Gets tha Landmark Issue Right Captain America #700 came out at last this past week, and Mark Waid, Chris Samnee, and Matthew Wilson bring "Out of Time" to an impressive conclusion[...]

Bruce Banner and Liang have a potential solution for the problem: a machine that can send Captain America back to before the rise of King Babbington and Rampart. Captain America #700 cover by Chris Samnee and Matthew Wilson In the back-up story, Red Skull has introduced a virus that is spreading through S.H.I.E.L.D[...]

I'm not perfect. Captain America #699 cover by Chris Samnee and Matthew Wilson Win: Captain America #699 is Still Amazing Mark Waid and Chris Samnee's Captain America marches onward with another stellar issue of "Out of Time." Waid understands what people like about Steve Rogers Samnee provides his distinct yet classic artwork to keep the issue gorgeous and timeless[...]

Elsewhere, the Things slaves away to keep power on in Babbington's tower. Captain America #699 cover by Chris Samnee and Matthew Wilson No, the Hulk and the Thing don't get to fight in this one I'm sad too. However, this issue does continue to show how well Mark Waid and Chris Samnee understand Steve Rogers, how he thinks,[...]

Now, it looks like we can expect Walker to bring his talents elsewhere for the foreseeable future. Additionally, ahead of a 4th-of-July relaunch of Captain America that Bleeding Cool has told you will be written by Ta-Nahesi Coates, current series artist Chris Samnee has announced that his contract with Marvel is up and, apparently, has not[...]

This is America, 2025. As Rich Johnston said in his article, Mark Waid and Chris Samnee have returned Captain America to its more political-minded roots This comic takes aim at the rich and powerful Its villains are those who would drown out the less-fortunate under debt and expense to keep them in line. At the risk of[...]

Let the hunt begin. Captain America #697 cover by Chris Samnee and Matthew Wilson Mark Waid and Chris Samnee really have managed to recapture the spirit of a classic Captain America comic with this short run on the title This just feels like a classic comic in both premise and execution. It does have its more nuanced sensibilities[...]

The town of Sauga has a dam holding back its nominal river, and the Swordsman is intent on releasing the waters to wash away the town. Captain America #696 cover by Chris Samnee and Matthew Wilson I'm a bit late to the part on this one; I apologize for that Circumstances prevented me from getting ahold of[...]

Yesterday, a press release asked, "Where Is Wolverine And What Is His Shocking Secret?" Today, a press release declares, "Captain America: Back On Ice…The Answer Will Shock You!" The move to clickbait press releases is fitting in a way, considering the constant spamming of super-mega-crossover events, line-wide relaunches, and variant covers is basically the comic[...]

Now the town is no called "Captain America" and holds an annual celebration of the Sentinel of Liberty. Captain America #695 cover by Chris Samnee and Matthew Wilson This was an excellent return-to-form for Marvel's First Avenger Mark Waid has constructed a classic Captain America story perfectly opposing the most recent string of Steve Rogers tales[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Marvel Legacy #1 from Marvel Comics, written by Jason Aaron and featuring art by Esad Ribic, Steve McNiven, Chris Samnee, Russell Dauterman, Alex Maleev, Ed McGuiness, Stuart Immonen, Wade Von Grawbadger, Pepe Larraz, Jim Cheung, Daniel Acuna, Greg Land, Jay Leisten, Mike Deodato Jr., David Marquez and Matthew Wilson (damn, that's a lotta dudes),[...]

Jason Aaron is a good writer, and, though I get the impression he didn't get a lot of say in the contents, the character presentations are solid. Esad Ribic and the murderer's row of all-star artists, such as Chris Samnee, Steve McNiven, Daniel Acuna, Alex Maleev, Mike Deodato Jr., Jim Cheung, and others do a rockin'[...]

But what if a character's legacy has been irreparably tarnished? When Captain America returns to Legacy numbering of #695 in November, writer Mark Waid and Chris Samnee will aim to put a fist through the smug face of the damaged reputation of Steve Rogers in the wake of Cap's fascist adventures in Secret Empire. "Our issues are[...]

Nine superstar artists and Greg Land have joined current artist Esad Ribic on the book, which could move the needle on orders despite past comments about artists' lack of ability to do so and a generally lukewarm reaction to Marvel's much-hyped Legacy variant cover reveals. According to a press release, Steve McNiven, Russell Dauterman, Chris Samnee, Alex Maleev, Stuart Immonen, Pepe[...]

And that still stands. But before then, according to new information reaching Bleeding Cool, the classic team of Mark Waid and Chris Samnee will relaunch Captain America – and the #694 Marvel Legacy issue November? December? Something like that I think we might expect an announcement at San Diego Comic-Con or similar Then Ta-Nehisi Coates will write the comic[...]

With an offer he can't refuse on the table, this unlikely duo finds themselves deep into the heart of the infamous Screaming Citadel! Can Luke find what he's looking for? Can Aphra be trusted? Or will the Citadel's Queen and the dark forces lurking within make their journey a one-way trip?! #gallery-1 { margin: auto; } #gallery-1 .gallery-item { float:[...]

Just in case anyone had forgotten, and just in case we do get a Mark Waid/Chris Samnee relaunch of Black Widow for All-New All-Different Marvel, this is what a Chris Samnee Black Widow looks like. In pretty safe hands, don't you think? Just in case anyone had forgotten, and just in case we do get a[...]

Coming out of Tampa Bay Comic Con this weekend  is the word that the Daredevil team of Mark Waid and Chris Samnee will be reuniting on an as-yet-unannounced new comic book book from Marvel. Could it be one of these? Or something new entirely? I think it's probably one of these So which would you pick? Back[...]

Chris Samnee (Daredevil) has a tumblr page where he posted the following images showing his art process on two sketches (Wolverine and Spider-Man) and then on a page with the Avengers Its always amazing to see how the art happens.   One of the good things about social media[...]

Though he still does the cover. And instead of Aaron Kuder, Action Comics #35 will also have artist Scott Kolins as well as Vincente Cifuentes, and the above new cover. Elektra #7 will have art by Alex Sanchez, not Michael Del Mundo. The Marvel 75th Anniversary Celebration #1 was solicited with contributions from  Bruce Timm, James Robinson, Stan Lee, Tom Defalco, Len[...]
