The moment that Matt Fraction left the high profile title Inhuman before the first issue was published (which never really recovered) seems notable As was a certain tweet from Matt earlier in the year, when Hawkeye was put on the Official Selection List for Angouleme. boy that timing couldn't be more ironic amazing don't even know[...]

It was only after an initial canon read that I was ready to read "new" comics, and for me that first "new" comic series was Matt Fraction and Salvador Larroca's Invincible Iron Man. At the risk of being lengthy, what I read now are lots of comics from Image, Dark Horse, a few from Marvel, and[...]

What's needed more is the outside-of-the-box thinking that looked at Matt Fraction and thought he'd be great on Iron Fist The outside-of-the-box thinking that knew Gail Simone would kill on Secret Six Where's the[...]

British comic book retailers have been told by Diamond UK that the Satellite Sam Tijuana Bible incentive will not be available within these shores.

In his panel at ECCC, Matt Fraction was asked whether or not he and his wife Kelly Sue DeConnick had thought about writing a comic book together Fraction said that if they did it would more likely be a prose book, though they did have a TV show idea together at one point.

Matt Fraction held a question and answer session at ECCC on Friday, in which he discussed his work, his career, and his audience And slipped out a few gems… which I'm going to have to split up a bit I think. Talking Sex Criminals, he told us, "Chip [Zdarsky] and I are going to put out a[...]
