Yesterday JH Williams III was teasing what turned out to be his collaboration with Warren Ellis, Desolation Jones getting a new premium collection from Image Comics, with colorist José Villarrubia and letterer Todd Klein, as a hardcover Desolation Jones: The Biohazard Edition This deluxe edition will collect Desolation Jones issues #1-6—along with an extensive gallery[...]

Yesterday, JH Williams III posted to TwitterX, "Announcing an announcement is soon…" And followed up with "And while I'm at it, another thing is descending…" He added "Things to come are'a comin'!… I thought it'd be funny I've seen lately these announcements for the announcement thing going on, always thought it's weird[...]

In February 2018, Bleeding Cool reported from Image Expo (remember those) that the Batwoman team of JH Williams III, Haden Blackman, Dave Stewart, and Todd Klein were working on a new series, Echolands, though without a firm publication date Three years ago, he was working on issue 3. The series focuses on the character named Hope,[...]

Including encouraging people to guess who the three people who turned down drawing Promethea were, before JH Williams III accepted the role. Promethea was a grimoire disguised as a superhero comic book Drawing on both Wonder Woman and Moore's work on Rob Liefeld's Wonder Woman analogue Glory, it was one of the launch books from Moore's[...]

Last night, Neil Gaiman and DC Comics did their thing with a Sandman Overture live conversation with for an hour and a half with Neil and Junot Díaz,

At the retailer roadshow in Orando with DC Comics, retailers were told the latest on Neil Gaiman and JH Williams III's Sandman Overture, which has been running at a rate well behind DC's initial projections. With four issues out in eighteen months. However retailers were told that Sandman Overture will be out in May. And that pretty much the primary[...]

The award-winning comic artist on Sandman: Overture with Neil Gaiman, Promethea with Alan Moore, Desolation Jones with Warren Ellis, and the

I had the good fortune of attending the very first Asbury Park Comicon. It was in a vintage bowling alley surrounded by little traces of the indie music

This week there are so many books in such a diversity of genres, that I'm choosing quite a wide range of comics for my reading experience, from fantasy to horror and even an all-ages glimpse into some favorite characters… Much-awaited, much-anticipated, I was naturally going to read Sandman: Overture #2 by Neil Gaiman and JH Williams[...]

And it's a comic that JH Williams III has pored so much into, each page is like reading a different comic book, a different style, a different take on what it means to be comics Even the art style from character to character changes As a result we get something full, something meaty, with many[...]

This Saturday, the  Cartoon Art Museum in San Francisco will have special guest JH Williams III popping by to their Sandman exhibition for a presentation from 7pm to 9pm This is the print of his work being made available exclusively to attendees Tickets can be bought here Including dinner with JH if you're feeling better. Williams[...]

JH Williams III is a hot damn genius and I don't care who wants to argue that with me Alan Moore seemed to agree and so does Neil Gaiman (Williams was handpicked for Gaiman's new Sandman series) In the early issues of Promethea, Williams is slowly pushing boundaries and reimagining how a comic book should[...]

It was originally solicited to come out in December, two months after issue 1. But Sandman Overture #2 by Neil Gaiman and JH Williams III was late and was resolicited to come out in February. Then it slipped into the first week of March. Now it has slipped into the last week of March 26th of March 2014. It[...]

By Alexander Webb Welcome to the first installment of Flashback Friday with your comic book (and fitness!) consigliere, Alex. Today, we will take a look

Jones, Paul Pope, Mike Allred, Neal Adams, John Cassaday, David Mack, Paolo Rivera, JH Williams III, and now Sam Kieth, among many other extraordinary talents That's no hyperbole: see the list for yourself here. Each artist will create a new strip featuring Little Nemo for the anthology Little Nemo: Dream Another Dream, which will be published[...]

The advertisements in Sandman Overture #1 did seem to be rather oppressive. Repeated double page spread for more Sandman books or more books you might

I’m writing live from my local comic shop, Conquest Comics in New Jersey, and trying to sum up my reactions to what can only be described as a massive

That initial description of Dream's journey seemed to jar, as if it were an early thought, subsequently rectified. That slightly unravelled in The Endless graphic anthology, showing us anthropomorphic representations of other planets in their earliest days, Krypton, Oa and Earth, playing with the DC Universe in which the comic was nominally set. Now Gaiman has pulled[...]

When I reported on JH Williams III's panel at San Diego Comic Con this past summer, replete with mind-bending artwork from his numerous projects from Batwoman to preview art of The Sandman: Overture, I noticed what a stellar job the moderator and interviewer, John Bultena of the University of California, Merced, was doing I was delighted[...]

The Endless Nights hardcover had a first print of over 100,000 that sold out straight away. In October, we get a new Sandman: Overture #1 by Gaiman and JH Williams III It should be the number one ordered book of the month, by any reckoning But some retailers might have… forgotten. DC Comics are making Sandman: Overture[...]

He writes; JH Williams III And W Haden Blackman Walk Off Batwoman Over DC Not Allowing Her Marriage To Maggie Sawyer Personally I would have named the story- Two self absorbed children with over inflated senses of self-worth leave perfectly good job because their lame story line is turned down by editors whose job it is to protect[...]

JH Williams III found out that Marc Andreyko was taking over Batwoman and that he would be writing the series from issue 25, rather than the expected issue 27, by reading about Baltimore reports about Dan DiDio onstage. Sadly, I guess with a new writer starting on Batwoman 25 means that the issue 25 we wrote[...]

So, the story so far. JH Williams and W Haden Blackman publicly stated that, due to last minute editorial changes pushed on them, and DC's decision not to

Here's where it started: JH Williams III, co-writer and artist on Batwoman, and artist on DC's upcoming Sandman: Overturehas laid it all out in his blog about why he, and co-writer WH Blackman are leaving the book Most-Read Comic Stories Thursday: JH Williams III Walks Off Batwoman Over DC Not Allowing Her Marriage To Maggie Sawyer (UPDATE) Bleeding Cool have run many articles[...]

Clicky for biggy. The official line is that DC Comics don't want their characters to get married, they are not against a same-sex marriage in Batwoman for any reason other than that. Of course, the main issue that writers and artist JH Williams III and WH Blackman gave for walking off the book was that it wasn't[...]

Promises were made that this would no longer happen – but were soon broken. JH Williams III, co-writer and artist on Batwoman, and artist on DC's upcoming Sandman: Overture has laid it all out in his blog about why he, and co-writer WH Blackman are leaving the book They write; in recent months, DC has asked us to[...]
