AND THE X-MEN The official

is finally here. As mentioned some time ago, I

pretty excited to finally see the final animation.
Here's the official PR (from

"Wolverine and the X-Men"
begins as an explosive event shatters the lives of the
X-Men and takes away their mentor, Professor X. The
beaten heroes, including Beast, Storm, Cyclops and
Nightcrawler, walk away from it all but then they are
given a rare glimpse into the future, where they see a
world in utter ruin…ruled by giant destructive robots.
They discover the world has spiraled out of control
because the X-Men have given up. So now the most
legendary of all X-Men, Wolverine, must take the lead on
the ultimate mission—to prevent the world's
destruction—while fending off enemies Magneto and The
Brotherhood.

AMERICAN IDOL / FORD Video!
Who would ever thought that I was going to be part of
one of the biggest TV show I love to watch with my wife?
Well, sometime the unthinkable happens, so the producers
of the Ad agency that makes the videos for American Idol
- Ford contacted me and asked me if I was interested in
producing some artwork for their video about... comics
coming to life! That was an opportunity I couldn't pass
on, so even if the time was a little tight I accepted
and the result of it was aired this past Wed, April
23rd, on FOX during the result show of American Idol.
If you missed it (or if you are not used to watch the
show), you can see the video
and the making of
the video right here (see below) thanks to You Tube :)
It was lot of fun and I would like to thank again those

FEAR AGENT TPavailable for Pre-Orders!

Art by Francesco Francavilla, Kieron Dwyer, Paul Renaud,
Shane White, and more.
Cover art by Eric Powell
Do you remember the ugly
adventure that saw Heath dealing with some nasty giant
spiders on a remote planet I drew a while ago? Well
that story is re-printed in this brand new anthology of
Tales of Fear Agent, which collects also all the short
stories that were published at the end of the regular
issues in the Image run of Fear Agent, plus some never
published before tales.
From the solicitation: Each story is a stiff bolt of one-hundred proof high adventure as we tag along on the drunken exploits of alien exterminator Heath Huston during his first ten years in deep space. Series creator Rick Remender is joined by a select handful of today's finest writers and artists in this compilation, expanding on the legend of the last Fear Agent. Tales of the Fear Agent is a collection of action-packed, 1950's-style Sci-Fi and Horror told with a modern panache.
136 pages, color, $14.95.

WOLVERINE
AND THE X-MEN
The cat is out of the bag (well it has been out for a
bit now): the new animated series from Marvel titled
"Wolverine and the X-Men" is airing in UK right now and
will be soon reaching the small screen here in US.
I provided storyboards for 3
of the episodes of this first season and had a blast
working again with my dear friend and extraordinaire
director and designer Steve Gordon.
The scripts were a lot of fun and from what I could tell
this is going to be a really cool animated show.
As soon I get the ok I will show some of the storyboards
on the storyboards section of my website.
Stay tuned! :)

Zorro Interviews on NEWSARAMA
As you all know, my big project for 2008 is a 8-issue
miniseries with Dynamite Ent. featuring one of the
biggest icons of our imaginary:
ZORRO! To make the deal even sweeter, we
have the modern master Matt Wagner writing the stories,
doing the covers, and taking care of the look and feel
of this re-vamping as art director. If you want to know
more about the project there are 2 interviews up right
now on Newsarama that give a pretty good amount of info
and sneak preview. And if you like it, right below here
you'll find the order codes to pre-order the first 2
issues :) Click here for the
Matt's interview. Click here for

"BLOOD ON CHRISTMAS" - A Christmas Lil' Tale of The
Shadow
To celebrate this Holiday season, I decided to do a
little story for my Blog Pulp Sunday dedicated to all
the (good) PULP stuff. The story is in the form of
strips, like they were used to be published on the
newspapers back in the days. To give it an extra spin, I
decided to go with a silent story. I hope you guys enjoy
it. :)

Dynamite presents the return
of yet another Legend as Matt Wagner unveils the all-new
Zorro!
Writer, Art Director and cover artist Matt Wagner is in
command of this all-new "year one" Zorro comic book
adventure. Similar in tone and scope to Dynamite's

McCulley, and first made his appearance in The Curse of
Capistrano, serialized in the pulp magazine All-Story
Weekly. From there Zorro has been the star of countless
films and has been noted by Bob Kane as a main influence
on Batman (Bruce Wayne even went to see Zorro the
evening his parents were killed) and recently featured
in a WORLD WIDE BEST-SELLING novel by Isabel Allende!
Joining Wagner - who also provides covers for the series
-- and Francavilla for the return of the legendary Zorro
is cover artists Mike Mayhew (with the incredible colors
of Dean White) and Lone Ranger cover artist John
Cassaday!
