Marvel Boy Noh-Varr has two saving graces Firstly, he hasn't collapsed completely[...]

As this is the Ultimate universe, the visuals must be more grounded in reality, I like it a lot, the concept of the Black Knight is inspiring. He also talked about warming up his creative muscles in the Marvel Universe on a ten page story which must by the strip with Kieron Gillen in A+X #6,[...]

Kieron Gillen gives an interview about Young Avengers to Buzzfeed Where he talks about comics as pop music, and eighteen year olds as superheroes and, Be My Baby a lot and seriously, is there a Kieron Gillen Generator somewhere? It wouldn't be hard to do It's possibly he'll be in the pub tomorrow night, if[...]

This is what Kieron Gillen's World War 2 superhero comic Uber for Avatar looked like in 2008. On a fridge The issue being laid out here will be published in April Kieron Gillen talks about it more here. As I said, I've tried to purge the majority of the tropes of the genre This is a book[...]

Well this appears to be that, getting out of the gates first. Drawn by Canaan White, Uber[...]

From Iron Man #4 by Kieron Gillen and Greg Land. Well, he is a bit of a futurist (albeit one who currently seems to be restricting the use of high tech) and this book is very much a get-Iron Man-ready-to-be-in-Guardians Of The Galaxy. But you know, I bet they read fantasy novels in space as well[...]

But in the revamped title, writer Kieron Gillen says, they will be the "core romantic couple of Young Avengers." Gillen warns, though, that Wiccan will make a big mistake that threatens his relationship with the shapeshifting Hulkling Do they have Grindr in the Marvel Universe? CHARITY BEGINS AT THE COMIC SHOP Jud Meyers of Blastoff Comics brings it[...]

You didn't think it was going to come that easily did you? The Bryan O'Malley variant cover for Young Avengers #1? Originally solicited as being able to

I've made no secret that I really enjoyed Kieron Gillen's run on Uncanny X-Men, after not enjoying the book for some time before that, despite the best efforts of some of my favourite comic creators F rom the Hope/Namor buddy comics to the militarisation of Cyclops to the many machinations of Mister Sinister (who now looks[...]

Chris Thompson writes; We've got a massive episode for you this week, folks! Aside from continuing our slow & steady investigation of Marvel Now! with Deadpool #1 and Iron Man #1, we also present not one but TWO interviews for your listening pleasure. First up, I chat with acclaimed writer Kieron Gillen (Journey Into Mystery, Phonogram) about[...]

Here is a shot that a nice retailer sent me… And with a number of stores being shorted on copies, this year's CBLDF Liberty Annual 2012, also featuring work from Jonathan Hickman, Andy Diggle, Ben Templesmith, Howard Chaykin, James Robinson, CHris Roberson, Roger Langridge, Terry Moore, Kieron Gillen and so many more, maybe in even greater[...]

ComiXology has given us an extra page of Kieron Gillen and Greg Land's Iron Man #1 in its preview, beyond that which we already had. So, you know, Go at it, I suppose… but first, let's take this opportunity to reprint from Gillen's Tumblr on the final issue of his Journey Into Mystery. One For Sorrow: Why[...]

In his outroduction, writer Kieron Gillen says we can write our own happy ending Because there is no way on Earth he is going to give us one He hates every single one of you Every Single One. It's not the final Journey Into Mystery of course Next month, the book has a new cast and[...]

Being handed out by Jamie McKelvie and Kieron Gillen outside Orbital Comics last night, before everyone went to the pub. Followed by an entertaining evening of me saying "Young Avengers" occasionally and them both saying "I don't know what you're talking about, Richard." I was wearing my Misfits T-shirt Only to discover at the bar was an[...]

At NYCC, Marvel will probably announce this new Young Avengers series from Phonogram creators Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie. But we already know one side-effect Phonogram: The Immaterial Girl has been delayed until next year Kieron writes; Some good news and some bad news That are entirely unconnected, though we understand that people are going to think[...]

So, obviously, we have a brand new Iron Man #1, we need to have some brand new Iron Man armour. But it turns out we'll have to wait until issue 3 and 4 in December for this little lot from Kieron Gillen and Greg Land, with designs by Carlo Pagulayan. The first two issues have a more[...]

There will be spoilers for the last issue of Thor in here. But I will try to remain as spoiler free for Journey Into Mystery #643 as I can. I may fail. In

Iron Man #1 by Kieron Gillen and Greg Land After spending last week teasing all their November Marvel NOW! titles, it looks like Marvel will be spending this week confirming them all With interviews, art and stuff Like a big long chat with Kieron Gillen about where the book is going Here's a few clips. The[...]

So how did we do? In June, Bleeding Cool ran a checklist of rumours we'd heard about Marvel NOW! Including that it would be called Marvel NOW! Let's see

This is what happens when a comic convention has Matt Fraction and Kelly Sue DeConnick as guests but a news website decides to begin Kelly's bio entry

(That's "Respectfully We Informed You Of This Event At An Earlier Juncture", obviously) Are the Uncanny X-Men team of Kieron Gillen and Greg Land really working on Robert Kirkman's Invincible for Marvel, as this image seems to suggest? No obviously not It's Invincible Iron Man Rebooting for Marvel Now! As we've been saying on Bleeding Cool for[...]

Here is your biggest clue to who, when, why and what will be writing drawing upcoming Marvel NOW! books, with the Marvel NOW! Point One comic which, like the Point One #1 book will feature short stories by creators on the chracters they'l be working on. So we have "BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS, MATT FRACTION, JEPH LOEB,[...]

A week or so ago, I heard mention of a new big X-Men book with a different creative team each week, first issue written by Kieron Gillen, the second by Jason Aaron, but I wasn't sure enough on the source, so I put it on the back burner. Well, this is possibly what it was referring[...]

At Bleeding Cool, we rather like the Kieron Gillen run on Journey Into Mystery Going as far as to say it's one of the best ongoing MarvelU or DCU books on the stands But dagnabbit, if one of the things we like most isn't the "last week on Buffy The Vampire Slayer" introductions to each[...]

Kieron Gillen has said that his run on Uncanny X-Men has all been about Avengers Vs X-Men and here's where all those Sinister scenes pay off. We start with a Dostoevsky parody, before we see Sinister's own parody of his own Victoriana-but-not-steampunk London That also delves into 1984 and the Matrix trilogy as it all plays[...]

Which has a totally different vibe… and certainly less of those long flowing dresses. The backup story in Action Comics #11 will no longer be by Brad Walker, but will now features art by CAFU. While Steve Pugh is no longer drawing Animal Man #11, replaced by Alberto Ponticelli & Wayne Faucher. Matt Fraction tweeted that Journey Into[...]

And lets us know that, Phoenix-style, if you can't be with the ones you acolyte, you acolyte the ones you're with. Kieron Gillen did a trick like this during Siege, making sense of some of the Loki stuff that, frankly, didn't make sense in the original He's basically Marvel's fix-it man, a walking No-Prize He will[...]
