Wolverine Noir trade paperback - April

125_WOLVERINE_NOIR_GN_TPB

Soliciting now, on sale April 28th: The softcover collection of WOLVERINE NOIR by me and CP Smith. I don't know for sure, but I assume this will be in the smaller, digest-sized format used for X-MEN NOIR. It's a nice little package, but I recommend shelling out five bucks more for the premiere hardcover. It's available now, and beautiful.

CP's one of the most powerful artists I've ever worked with. We're currently talking about doing something else together soon...fingers crossed.

Deadpool Team-Up Interview/Preview

DPOOL896004crop

Up on Marvel.com, with LOTS of new art by the amazing Shawn Crystal. A sample from the interview:

""Deadpool is like a two-year-old: easily bored and totally obsessed by any new, shiny object," explains Moore. "He puts on a hat and vest, picks up a used paperback called 'The Totally Wicked Book of C.B. Slang (Bicentennial Edition),' and decides he's a trucker. He doesn't bother with the details, like learning what a double-clutch is. And he thinks U.S. Ace is his best buddy, his brother of the road. What in the world could go wrong with all that?"

DEADPOOL TEAM-UP #896 featuring U.S. ACE: on sale February 3rd!

25_CLOAK_AND_DAGGER_1

Out in March from Marvel Comics: CLOAK & DAGGER #1, a one-shot by me and Mark Brooks! Here's the basics:

Written by STUART MOORE
Pencils & Cover by MARK BROOKS

Marvel's most-requested duo return in this all-new one-shot, spinning out of X-MEN: NATION X! Cloak -- dark, brooding teleporter. Dagger -- deadly, shining mistress of light. Having quit the Dark X-Men, Cloak and Dagger find their partnership strained as they struggle to fit in among the mutants of Utopia. But when a new menace targets Cloak, Dagger must make a fateful choice for both of them. Guest-starring the X-Men, and written by Stuart Moore (WOLVERINE NOIR) with stunning art by Mark Brooks (YOUNG AVENGERS).

40 PGS./One-Shot/Rated T+

PRICE: 3.99
IN STORES: March 3, 2010

I'm really excited about this one. Short interview here, talking about the X-Men connection, sex, and the characters in general. A sample:

"[Cloak and Dagger] have a close bond that's gradually grown into a full-blown romantic partnership. But that's a dangerous path for them, because they're linked in so many different ways. When one of them grows restless, it brings up all sorts of problems and conflicting emotions. They're still barely out of their teens -- in many ways, they're like lovers who married very young, and now have to deal with everything that means."
