Published by WildStorm/DC in the nineties and noughties, it consisted initially of Tom Strong, Promethea, Tomorrow Stories Top 10 and The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen It remains a high point of DC Comics' publishing line over the decades Until Dunbier posted it, it had never been seen publicly before So Bleeding Cool transcribed it for[...]

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[...]

And certain issues, such as the Promethea "sex issue" were heavily monitored for editorial guidelines. Issue 12 of Promethea was, and remains, a highlight, a history of magic, of life, of creation, through tarot cards, mixed up Scrabble tiles and a tale from Aleister Crowley, with JH Williams III double page spreads used to their full. Narrated by[...]

Williams III ( Sandman: Overture, Promethea, Bat Woman) for the new Blondie album, Ghosts of Download as the images for the front cover, back cover, and CD pamphlet were revealed on Williams' blog (with more to come) but today another bomb dropped when Blondie's video for the single "I Want To Drag You Around" went[...]

If I try to break it down logically, and that's difficult since my reactions to his work are so immediate, some of the things that render Williams such an artistic voice over the past twenty years are his ability to carry out seemingly impossible projects like Promethea, genre-changing projects like Batwoman, and consummate projects like[...]

Then you can have a conversation with them about Batman. Promethea I considered a lot of books for this list Many of my favorites didn't make it but this one did and it's here because I really like it and I really like the creators and I'm making the list Promethea is from Alan Moore's America's Best[...]

From the JH Williams III panel, Eric Rezsnyak reports for Bleeding Cool that the Absolute Promethea Immateria volume will be published next year now, still sideways in the Scott Dunbier recommended version and will include amongst other details, issue twelve as one fold-out, panoramic panel sixteen feet long… From the JH Williams III panel, Eric[...]

The Promethea Immateria, a hardcover collection collection all 32 issues of Promethea, sideways, preserving the double page spreads that were the signature of Alan Moore and JH Williams' grimoire-disguised-as-a-superhero comic, has been but on hold. It was due to be published in September but has now been withdrawn from the schedules, along with the Annotated Sandman[...]

Everything else is a house ad, scattered through the issue. Apart from Batwoman. Since the relaunch, Batwoman has specialised in storytelling through double page spreads, a style writer/artist JH Williams III developed on Promethea with Alan Moore, and had souught to replicate with other artists on the title as well This kind of comic is hard to[...]

Spoilers if you squint. This kind of trick is one you many have been more used to seeing in the likes of Promethea or Cerebus And it is something totally lost on the digital version… Along with Batwoman, The Flash from the pen of Francis Manapul, is one of the few DC New 52 comics that[...]

Back in the day, Wildstorm Editor-In-Chief Scott Dunbier planned to publish Promethea, in the Absolute format that he pioneered at DC Comics, sideways Preserving the double page spread that became JH Williams' signature, the book would be read landscape rather than portrait, without important story and artistic information being lost in the fold It would[...]
