I just got hooked on Michael Turner's new Fathom and Soulfire comics. The artwork is amazing to say the least! I can tell he defiantly put some passion into these pictures. Does anyone know when Ekos will be coming out? I'm going to get the preview edition but I haven't seen any regularly scheduled printings of it yet.

Pretty much the way he draws people. He draws all his females the with the same body type and face and all the men have the same facial features and body types. All his characters lack emotion so thats what I dont like. For example Superman/Batman #10 when theyre fighting the Doomsday clones Batman has the same face all the way through and Superman screams once and thats pretty much it. Also hes too damn good looking (according to my sister) to be working in comics.

I have it pulled and plan on picking up the first few issues. I'm looking forward to getting Ekos though, though I don't know when.

As far as Soulfire, is either cover A or B more rare than the other. At my comic shop they had tons of cover A and only 1 remaining cover B so I put B on hold for me.

Thats the one I bought and my store said they only had 5 so its probably rare. Like the third AXM #1 variant.

michael turner is one of the best in the business (as is loeb) and soulfire will be amazing. unfortuanetly i havent got my copy, but i will have it soon. and for all the other aspen title, with the lineup of talent that turner has managed to grab and the new artists who are drawing for him, it looks to be an amazing to new company. cant wait forr it all.

Default Re: Soulfire

I couldn't find any other boards about Soulfire (the main series) so I hope this is the official one. I really like this series, I bought the hardcover of vol. 1 and was really impressed. Now I'm just patientally waiting for issue #8 to come out (which is starting to feel like Ultimates 2 & All star Batman). What are everyone elses thoughts on the series?
