When we first ran *that* Milo Manara cover to Spider-Woman under the headline "The Spider-Woman Cover That Will Launch A Thousand Headlines" we never thought we were being close-to-literal. We also pointed out how close it was to a previous image by Manara from his famous pornographic comic book, Click. The reason given for Manara putting his Marvel comic[...]

Milo Manara And his Spider-Woman #1 variant cover When we saw it, we called it the cover that would launch a thousand headlines and we weren't wrong. People made parodies, tried to replicate the pose, interviewed Manara where he claimed inspiration from God , there was a bit of an online fight when folk thought Manara had[...]

This was the solicited cover that, as we first predicted way back when, would launch a thousand headlines. It did, newspapers, magazines, websites, everyone chipped in. And now this is the actual cover that will appear in print on the Spider-Woman #1  Milo Manara Variant, out tomorrow. What a difference a logo can make…   [...]

Nuff said,

That Milo Manara's schedule was heavily filled working on his Le Caravage graphic novel about the life of Italian artist Caravaggio And he was unable to meet Marvel deadlines as well. But I learned that Marvel had told him not to rush. Knowing how important the project is to him, that they were happy to wait. Manara's already-begun covers for Thor and Axis will now[...]

I am. I'm a proud lesbian. As a man who embraces his feminine side, I've been watching with mild amusement the Spider-Woman/Milo Manara brouhaha Here's my two cents: Milo Manara is going to be Milo Manara, and what you see is what you get Don't be mad at Milo for doing what he does, that's just silly[...]

Justice League #34 won't be by Doug Mahnke as solicited but by Joe Prado and Ivan Reis. Wolverine And The X-Men #10 will be joined by art from Jacob Wyatt, James Harren and more Batman/Superman Futures End #1 isn't by Howard Porter but by Cliff Richards and Jack Herbert. Green Lantern Corps Futures End #1 isn't by Igor Lima[...]

This week you have mostly been reading stories about Milo Manara But not exclusively… a Marvel Death and a Frank Miller diatribe also grabbed your attention Clearly what you all want to read is Miller's introduction to this Manara comic collection from Dark Horse… "Milo Manara must live in a beautiful world…" So what else have[...]

So we've run that Milo Manara Spider-Woman cover far too many times now In the interest of balance, the Alex Ross' Daredevil cover for the Marvel 75th Anniversary Magazine. Best we could do.   And if that's just not doing it for you, Starlight's Gorlan Parlov has his own take on the Spider-Woman issue with a great bit of[...]

I'm not sure he's exactly understood the reason why folk are so miffed. But Milo Manara has drawn that Spider-Woman image from a different angle… From Eurocomics USA Invasion's Facebook page, who reached out to Manara, And translated, "Given that some people have seen, or pretended to see, my Spider-Woman in a gynaecological position, I'm sending this sketch to show[...]

Thanks to Martin Hand for this one...

So, the most read story on Bleeding Cool this week, was the post about Milo Manara's variant cover for Spider-Woman #1, commissioned by Marvel Comics. One artist redrew the cover in order to show Milo Manara how it should be done Something another artist, Richard Pace, was incensed about. While Marvel executive Tom Brevoort gave a "you hire Milo Manara,[...]

  This is the Milo Manara variant cover being used to launch Spider-Woman #1 from Marvel in November. Who would have thought that, in comparison regular series artist Greg Land's cover would seem feminist in comparison? But what is equally disturbing is that the cover appears to be based on a far more infamous cover by Milo Manara, from his[...]

Italian artist Milo Manara is famed for, well, that kind of artwork And he's been doing a few variant covers for Marvel Comics of late Just to keep his hand in. Well, now Panini Comics Italia is doing a portfolio collecting ten of them at 44.5 x 29.5 cm (11.6 x 17.5 inches), only for certain comics shops that buy[...]

I wonder what's up? Milo Manara's cover for Savage Wolverine #2. And sixteen more Marvel Comics covers for February 2013 that are rather fun. We're seeing a lot more of this fellow in US comics of late I wonder what's up?[...]

Milo Manara draws Scarlet Witch as a variant cover for Uncanny Avengers #2 for Marvel Comics That's a sentence I didn't expect to be writing this morning.

Tony asks on the TCJ message board, regarding the upcoming collection of the work of Milo Manara by Dark Horse Comics; Is it true that 3 pages have been excised from Dark Horse's MANARA EROTICA VOL 1, with a notice on the introduction but no explanation of what's missing, although it's clear that is fictional sex[...]

Greg Baldino writes for Bleeding Cool Eurocomics fans in American have a new reason to rejoice, for Dark Horse Comics has seen fit to release not a single volume of Milo Manara's acclaimed graphic works, but are in fact dedicating an entire line of reprints, The Manara Library, to the Italian artist (You read about[...]
