Christopher Priest has a writer's commentary on Vampirella Vol 5 #10, out from Dynamite Entertainment now. So I get asked a lot how an ordained former pastor can justify writing a book like VAMPIRELLA, with its violence, nudity, language, and occult themes Well, this is how– Father Gutiérrez is a no-nonsense Christian street fighter modeled after[...]

Teen Riri may still be fairly new to the armored avenging gig, (see: 2016's INVINCIBLE IRON MAN), but she's genius-level resourceful. BLACK PANTHER: THE CLIENT: WRITTEN BY CHRISTOPHER PRIEST, WITH ART BY MARK TEXEIRA Priest's prolific sixty-two-issue run on BLACK PANTHER (1998) was chock full of social and political satire, an examination of the vast differences between the African and[...]

The ending frees up writer Christopher Priest, who's run on the title was expected to end with this issue anyway, for another title Maybe he can take over Batman, as Tom King's run on the title ends in December as well? Just a suggestion, not based on any inside info or anything like that But now[...]

Dynamite Comics is touting the success of their upcoming Vampirella relaunch, written by Christopher Priest with art by Ergun Gunduz The first issue doesn't hit stores until July, but in a press release at PreviewsWorld, Dynamite says that current orders are already putting the print run at 60,000 copies, making it the most successful Vampirella[...]

So we're reading this preview of Daredevil #6, in stores on Wednesday, and as far as we know, Daredevil has never spoken with Christopher Priest, mostly because Christopher Priest is a real person and Daredevil is a fictional character However, you might be surprised to learn that the two share certain viewpoints. In a recent interview[...]

Which is why Bleeding Cool is running as many previews as we can, to help folk plan just what they would fancy on May the 4th, as retailers make their final choices… and Vampirella will be kicking off her 50th anniversary title with a  bunch of classic Vampirella tales as Christopher Priest takes on the[...]

The battle between Deathstroke and Batman has ended, as both men are too injured to continue the fight and must escape the Batcave. Is it a good read?

Deathstroke ambushes Batman in his own home, and a bloody duel begins as their allies try to stop it. Adeline wants it to continue. Is it a good read?

That's right — Mayday Parker is back, alongside Anya Corazon and Spiderling. And also, Spider-Force, by Christopher Priest and Paulo Siqueria, starring Kaine, Jessica Drew, Jessica Drew, Ashley Barton, and new characters Astro-Spider and Spider-Kid. And a new cover by Artgerm for Spider-Gwen: Ghost Spider… Spider-Gwen's return as Ghost Spider was, of course, first reported by Bleeding Cool earlier this month[...]

Deathstroke is joined by Robin for a mission that puts them in the path of Nightshade and Spyral. Can they work together? Is it a good read?

Christopher Priest has a knack for writing dialogue for familiar characters like Batman and Slade that fits while being unlike anything I've heard from the characters in the past Plus, the vicious nature of the fight and the constant attempts to one-up another make it a completely enthralling duel. Deathstroke #32 art by Carlo Pagulayan, Roberto[...]

They employ labyrinthine plots to strike at one another while remaining firmly dedicated to not allowing the other to victory. As is often the case of Christopher Priest's Deathstroke, the writing is methodical and detail-focused It lends itself to a detective tale, even if we do know who is behind these "crimes." Deathstroke gets an opportunity to[...]

the Justice League' and 'Justice Lost', I'm not sure how I expected Christopher Priest's run on Justice League to end What could be the most satisfying ending to an arc like this, especially when we know that the League isn't going to die or disband? Is there a satisfying ending to be had? While I refuse[...]

I'm struggling to come up with more of a build-up to the list, so let's just get to it! Justice League #42 cover by David Yardin Win: Yes, Maybe I Will Just Marry Christopher Priest's Justice League Christopher Priest and Pete Woods brought out another incredible issue of Justice League this past week[...]

With a focus on the brutality the League is witnessing and their inability to effect lasting change in the area, Christopher Priest has crafted a story I can scarcely believe I'm reading at times. The body count is unnervingly high in this issue, with each little mistake made by the Justice League being punctuated with another[...]

This leads Batman on a collision course with Deathstroke, and that can only end in blood. Deathstroke #30 cover by Lee Weeks and Brad Anderson The comic opens with a brief conversation between Alfred Pennyworth and Wintergreen, which is great on its own. I should have been looking forward to the kind of Batman Christopher Priest was going[...]

the Batman himself, brought to life by the creative team of Christopher Priest and Carlo Pagulayan This duel will be over the fatherhood of… Damian Wayne? You heard that right: the inciting incident here is a package delivered to Bruce Wayne that contains "proof" that Slade is the true father of the current Robin[...]

In any case, let's get this started! Justice League #41 cover by David Yardin Win: Justice League #41 is Frigging Nuts In addition to Christopher Priest just writing in Black Panther into Justice League, the newest issue of DC's seminal hero team puts our heroes into an all-too real position in which they could do nothing lasting to[...]

Christopher Priest writing Black Panther into Justice League as a genocidal warlord aside—we'll definitely get back to that—this comic is another vicious takedown of the superhero genre courtesy of Priest. Priest has introduced a depressingly real and common scenario into his JL comic and has forced the team to confront it[...]

The "graphic" part of graphic novel is one of its distinguishing factors, and taking that away without replacement is a fatal blow to even the best-written book. Justice League #40 cover by David Yardin Win: Christopher Priest's Justice League Continues to be Audacious and Daring Christopher Priest's Justice League has been an astonishing chapter in the saga of DC's headlining[...]

It's almost wall-to-wall action and maintains that Christopher Priest seriousness and intensity that has made this comic as engaging as it has been since its beginning. Deathstroke #29 art by Diogenes Neves, Trevor Scott, and Jeromy Cox Diogenes Neves's artwork remains attuned to the series and its tone A highly detailed style combines with dynamic and energetic artwork[...]

However, I'd struggle to say it's unwarranted considering the ideas with which this comic is playing. Hell, the section in Estes Park could have had another issue to unpack everything Christopher Priest lays on the table, especially after the protestors start chanting, "Ferguson." The fact that the Fans (which is apparently a group instead of a single[...]

Now this reporter is trying to use his ability to pass for white to investigate the murder, but now another witness suspects him of the crime. Deathstroke #29 cover by Ryan Sook Deathstroke #29 Christopher Priest's wonderful take on Slade Wilson charges onward, as the mercenary investigates a bizarre case of his daughter claiming the mantle of an ancient[...]
