And we've been unable to uncover even one of them. Until now. We've been told by industry sources that legendary world-respected comics author Grant Morrison, as well as having a project with Boom!, will be announcing his return to a comic he once wrote three issues of, Spawn. Of late, the comic created by Todd McFarlane has had rather[...]

It's just a question of doing it in a way that my wife still knows what I look like and I'm not hiding in my cave the whole time [laughs]. DD: I'm curious, in terms of your artwork, when you look back at some of the comics you were reading growing up or some of the[...]

Once upon a time, Brian Bendis used to write Todd McFarlane Spawn spinoff comicbooks Then Bendis took the job writing Ultimate Spider-Man and McFarlane dumped him quick. But a piece of him seemed to stay, no more so than in today's Spawn #245 Where we have dialogue scenes with stat backgrounds and fixed "cameras" around a table. Or[...]

Here we have the panel with Stan "The Man" Lee (with guest Todd McFarlane), the Batman Reunion Panel with Adam West, Burt Ward and Julie Newmar and the Power Rangers Reunion Panel with David Yost, Austin St John and Walter Jones… [youtube]http://youtu.be/ZMHaRshAXVk[/youtube]   [youtube]http://youtu.be/CIDc1tTi4jM[/youtube]   [youtube]http://youtu.be/zfAMCQHg5oQ[/youtube] [...]

Already given a premium editorial freedom in terms of the grim content of his Spider-Man issues, Todd McFarlane's Spawn wasn't hugely different, but did contain a lurid and pitch-black aesthetic that also owed a bit to Frank Miller and Watchmen While I like to think I was smart enough to avoid some trends, like the[...]

Once bitten twice shy. But from the ComicBook.com interview with Image Comics founder and creator of Spawn, Todd McFarlane. "Are there any circumstances that I would draw Spider-Man 'with' not 'for' but 'with' Marvel?" Again, everything's possible And basically I'm saying , "Is it possible that someday I'll wake up and have an itch to do a[...]

Indeed many people just watch it for those (cue Brendon Connelly on the right hand side of Bleeding Cool hunched over his US IP late tonight). Stan Lee and Todd McFarlane are going to see the game together, as McFarlane releases American Football figures, with Stan supporting the Seahawks. And Sporting News is happy cover geek references[...]

Written by Robert Kirkman, it featured the Image founder's characters in one comic, and was drawn by them all, Whilce Portacio, Jim Valentino, Marc Silvestri, Rob Liefeld, Erik Larsen and Todd McFarlane, with each artist drawing their characters and Jim Lee drawing covers. Issue 1 came out in 2009 Issue 2 shortly after, then a[...]

And while it does look at the problems of too-much-too-young, the fights between founders and criticism of the quality of work and professionalism at the beginning, it does miss out a few of the inconvenient truths, the involvement of Malibu Comics in those early days, the role in Image deciding to follow DC Comics and[...]

There have been a rash of very poorly executed "rough drafts" of the Wizard Magazine  #205 cover by Whilce Portacio and Todd McFarlane, with equally offensively bad McFarlane signatures on eBay. Firstly "sickbreed" sells one for $99. So why not relist another one for a minimum for $149.99 Then "bobbybacon2336" sells one for $25. Then "t_lucky817" sells another for[...]

It had that Todd McFarlane image of Spider-Man wearing a wizard's robe and hat on the cover I took it home and read it cover to cover Checking out the price guide, the previews, all the incredible art and I felt like I was a little bit better connected to the industry I loved That's[...]

At San Diego Comic Con, Bleeding Cool got handed a couple of Todd McFarlane Spider-Man iPad cases. One was snaffled up by Bleeding Cool's Hannah Means-Shannon Who took it with her to Papercutz, publisher of children's graphic novels in the European style Where Jim Salicrup, the man who edited that run on Spider-Man is now working[...]

Ian Melton writes; Ask a comic book fan about Todd McFarlane and they'll probably tell you one of three things: he draws a great Spider-Man; he created Spawn; he has a huge ego Go further down the list and other things will pop up, but few people know that Todd McFarlane, born in Canada, actually attended[...]

If you pick up a Walking Dead: Michonne resin statue from your local comic shop, you may be slightly worried to discover it doesn't come with it's Todd McFarlane Certificate of Authenticity.

Entertainment Weekly is showing off the new look of Angela, by way of Joe Quesada. Quite a trick, considering how much she seemed to change in appearance

Created by Neil Gaiman and Todd McFarlane in Spawn, the character was the subject of a number of Image comic series and appearances, as well as a long legal battle regarding ownership alongside Marvelman and Cogliostro, the character can be used by either Todd or Neil as long as the other gets a[...]

Bleeding Cool Magazine article by Rich Johnston People understand Hollywood feuds exist, but find it strange similar behaviour might be exhibited in a

Ouch. From happier versions;

Haunt #29 was published yesterday with rather an explosive ending and the line; It was the last issue to be written by Joe Casey and subsequent issues have been solicited with Todd McFarlane as a writer. The question asked by a number is… has the book actually been cancelled with the current issue? Were the subsequent solicitations[...]

We reported on what appeared to be a rather ridiculous legal suit earlier this year, when Todd McFarlane sued Al Simmons for representing himself as the inspiration for Todd's creation Spawn Despite Todd McFarlane's publications often describing Al Simmons as… well… the inspiration for Todd's creation, Spawn. Well, it's been settled The Hollywood Reporter reports; Spawn creator[...]

An excellent result for a historically-important piece which puts it inside the top 10 highest prices ever paid for an American line-art comic book cover at public auction — and at a glance, the highest price ever paid for a Silver Age DC cover at public auction. There were plenty of other strong results in the[...]
