Jeff Lemire tweets pics of a few comics… what does it all mean? Out of the comics shown, I'd hope for Spectre in particular Or maybe Red Tornado (who has already been mentioned as being under construction in the New 52), despite what the forum says  But mostly Spectre, I think  Over the last couple[...]

Over the last couple of days, Jeff Lemire has tweeted the visuals below without further comment, despite a variety of pleas from his followers. Red Tornado, Kamandi, Jemm Son Of Saturn and Spectre.

Earlier this year, as Rob Liefeld blazed out of DC Comics in a hail of Twitterbitterness, he managed to snag Scott Snyder on the way out, and they had quite a war of words, which has had a series of blow ups since. Well, Scott, Jeff Lemire has your back. In today's Animal Man, currently in a[...]

Louie Falcetti writes for Bleeding Cool; Personally, I've scratched my head at some of the choices that DC has made regarding it's comic lines.

We will have a charitable response that people can be involved in soon. In comics this week is all Jeff Lemire's! His original graphic novel Underwater Welder is amazing!

It sounds like precisely the kind of thing that DC is trying to accomplish with the New 52, and Jeff Lemire would be a good candidate to accomplish it Quite a bit of support for this concept around the internet too, I see, so there seems to be plenty of fingers crossed over this one[...]

He's done gangbusters for DC Comics, taking C-list character Animal Man, whose return to the DC Universe from DC Vertigo had been lacklustre at best, and turned him into a surprise critical and commercial hit as part of the DC New 52. So it's only natural that DC might tap him for any other bright ideas. I[...]
