Dean Haspiel (Billy Dogma, The Fox), longtime indie and mainstream comics storyteller, spoke with a childhood friend about superheroes today over at Dan Greenfield's 13th Dimension, and as usual, Haspiel has no problem putting a fine point on the goals and conventions of superhero comics When the body count piled up in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, he[...]

Kaminski started off by showing a pretty killer trailer for the new Haspiel/Mark Waid series The Fox, a hipster homage to silver age comics with plenty of psychedelic flair, full of some pretty sweet action[...]
