SDCC '06: HUGHES TO WRITE & DRAW ALL STAR WONDER WOMAN

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Creator Adam Hughes confirmed for Newsarama Sunday afternoon at Comic-Con what has been rumored for some time and strongly hinted at by Dan DiDio Saturday – Hughes will be writing and drawing an All-Star Wonder Woman title for DC.

Hughes – the one-time cover artist for Wonder Woman – told Newsarama it is very early in the process and he hasn’t even begun discussing scheduling with DC yet, saying the new title would likely launch sometime in 2007.

I'm of mixed opinions. Hughes draws drop-dead gorgeous women, but it's always been a bit on the exploitative side. I have no idea how good of a writer he is, and Wonder Woman's hardly an simple task. Hopefully he at least gleaned a lot from his time as cover artist. If they're going to make an ASWW at all, I at least want it to be as good as All-Star Batman and not anywhere near the horrifying mess of All-Star Batman. The latter is easy to do, but the former...well, it's not so easy.

I don't think any part of that would be easy to do, actually.

 

[The Leaguer]

If anyone could do it, it's Hughes. I think he could capture the off-beat style of All-Star Batman while avoiding the unconventional style of All-Star Batman.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I think he'll fall prey to the pitfalls of All-Star Batman while trying (unsuccessfully, I might add) to capture the unique, off-kilter stylings of All-Star Batman, myself.

 

[The Leaguer]

I think it's clear, though, that All-Star Batman should definitely be his goal, while All-Star Batman his the opposite of where he wants to go.

I kinda knew Hughes was going to write and draw a book. Because a I read the editor's page, which is titled DC Nation, at the end of a DC book and it said Hughes wants to write and draw but it didn't say what book.

Hang on, can you possibly go into more detail, and possibly include diagrams, on the process that led you to that dramatic conclusion? Because that is, by far, the single most spectacular feat of detective work I have seen in this world.

You, my friend, called that s***.

Obviously.

I will go through the recent DC books that came out the past few weeks. I recall seeing a letter to Didio from his assistant or whomever, giving a list. And one of the item's on the list was -Adam Hughes wants to write and draw.

Well, hop to it, dear boy. Don't keep the befuddled masses in suspense!

 

[The Leaguer]

I need to know.

 

[Darthphere]

Im there like a bear, it hasnt even been worked out yet and its already on my pull list.

 

[The Leaguer]

How, exactly, would a bear be there.

 

[Darthphere]

Like a bear.

 

[Bullseye]

I found it!

Its the DC Nation column in Superman/Batman # 27. In the DC Nation column, it has a letter from Jann Jones. The list has ten items.

The letter reads:

Dan's To-Do List:
1) Adam Hughes decided to draw and write. Wants to get started.

 

[The Leaguer]

A diagram, please. I need a visual.

 

[sethcohen]

scan it! now! no seriously... NOW!

 

[Elisha Cuthbert]

A diagram, please. I need a visual.

yeah, some of us are dyslexic.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Leaguer's not dyslexic, he's just stupid.

 

[The Leaguer]

Shut up, I'm smarter than you.

 

[sethcohen]

stupid is as stupid does... life is like a box of chocolates...

 

[Darthphere]

This should be gold.

 

[The Leaguer]

What should.
