Today, Marvel publishes Hawkeye #11 by Matt Fraction and David Aja. It's a story about Clint Barton (better known as Hawkeye)'s dog Lucky (better known as Pizza Dog). It's about the way he sees, hears and smells his world, represented as a series of pictograms that are reminiscent of the work of Chris Ware We get associated[...]

Hannah Means-Shannon writes for Bleeding Cool from Heroes Con On an otherwise fairly laid-back day at the opening of Heroes Con in Charlotte, North Carolina, Matt Fraction and Steve Lieber packed a large hall to talk about the alarmingly successful series Hawkeye It's rare for a panel at a con to be devoted to a single[...]

Matt Fraction has art-directed a series of T-shirt designs based on the Hawkeye comic for WeLoveFine, and is donating his fee to Futures Without Violence Including one based around this famous panel… And Kelly Sue DeConnick, donating her fee to Girls Leadership Institute has her own new shirts based around "Fake Geek Girl" [...]

This, as Bleeding Cool has said, pretty much puts the end to any future collaborations.  xxxx Jim McCann, who I am a big fan of because of this work with Hawkeye, said that the while he was never able to get ongoing like Matt Fraction, all the various mini-series were, in fact, arcs he was going to[...]

Though Allred loves being on the book. Also Joe Quinone is guesting for issue 6 to let Allred keep on schedule. And the success of Hawkeye just makes Fraction smile. Matt Fraction and I both wished that the Hawkeye Vol 1 TPB had already been released Me since absolutely love the series and Matt since he would have[...]

 Spreadsheets run the world more than people realize (though sometimes with very unintended results), so it's fun to see that the Marvel U is maybe no exception to this. And moments later, according to Dustin's write-up, Matt Fraction provided a little contrast to that with his "Continuity is the Devil" comments — completing a nifty (and[...]

At the Pint Of CB panel at ECCC, Matt Fraction teased the future of the Hawkeye comic book.

Matt Fraction recently visited Leeds for Thought Bubble (No, apparently not, my mistake) And it appears took a little of the lingo back with him in today's Fantastic Four #3. "Pear-shaped" is British slang for something going wrong, no longer a circle – when you are looking at a European pear, anyway Which, in Europe, we[...]

Working its way around the world, until it hits the US and goes official, it looks like Warren Ellis and Mike Deodato's Thunderbolts run that span out of Civil War will be hitting 99 cents on Monday morning… it's already at 69p in the UK. And it's joined by Warren Ellis Forum member Matt Fraction with[...]

They looked at the effect the Tony Stark inventions had on the rest of the world and the nefarious nature of some using that technology.

Matt Fraction and Mark Bagley are confirmed on Fantastic Four, and Matt Fraction and Mike Allred confirmed on FF. And while the Fantastic Four go on a journey through time and space, the FF will gain Ant Man She-Hulk, Medusa and… ta da! Miss Thing as member, a woman who wears a Thing suit, to keep[...]

No funny contextualising, no snark, no personal sidebar, I'm just going to cut and paste. Kelly Sue DeConnick posted on the new Winter's Tales tumblr. I

An extended family for the Fantastic Four? Freedom Foundation? Fantastic Forty? Something else? It's probably FF. That's what USA Today suggests and they

Thank you USA Today for your wise words. and willingness to play along with Marvel's PR people.

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 with "The wife of Matt Fraction." You get a little solidarity amongst friendly comic creators, pointing out that people can be defined in other ways, that Kelly Sue's worth[...]

Alasdair Stuart writes for Bleeding Cool Matt Fraction and David Aja's highly anticipated Hawkeye ongoing is upon us and it's not what you'd expect This isn't quite the cool, zen archer of The Avengers movie, or rather, it could be, but if it is this is pretty clearly what he does on his days off[...]

Could it be? In other just-as-relevant tweet news, regarding Avengers Vs X-Men,  @cathode_debris pointed out to Matt Fraction that he had " just realised first names of the Phoenix Five spell P.E.N.I.S" Peter, Emma, Namor, Illyana, Scott… blimey. It's the Ethan Van Sciver/Grant Morrison Sex-Men scandal all over again!   [...]

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[...]

A third filling. Matt Fraction and Salvador Larroca, taking over the Fantastic Four when Jonathan Hickman leaves for The Avengers. Fraction has been working on a variety of books for Marvel, including a long run on Iron Man And we know that Kieron Gillen and Greg Land are taking over that book. So what's happening on Uncanny X-Men…[...]

Apart from the Iron Man one, obviously… Could we see Rick Remender and Jeremy Opena on an Avengers book? New Avengers maybe? Could Mark Waid take over Avengers Assemble? What about Jonathan Hickman and Essad Ribic on either Uncanny X-Men or the Avengers books that's not the one Remender and Opena are on? And definitely definitely definitely Kieron Gillen[...]

And this teaser for a new series by Matt Fraction and David Aja does seem to indicate that's where we should be looking You know, what with the purple and black, the arrow and the bullseyes So it's probabky worth calling at this stage.
