New Joe Fridays Week 26 Dan Slott's New Book announced

[Darthphere]

Forgive me, but is that really Dan Slott above DP?

As far as we know yes, yes it is. Are you going to freak out or something?

 

[Red]

No, I'm just surprised is all.

 

[Dan_Slott]

Yes. It's me.

 

[The_Mystery]

Yes. It's me.

No disrespect, but how can you prove it?

Quick notes:
AVENGERS: THE INITIATIVE is 6 issues because both Tom Brevoort and I want it to be 6 issues. At the retreat Joe Quesada, Bendis, and others were pushing for the book to be an ongoing. It was Tom and myself that put the brakes on that. WE want to see what the reaction is first. If people are digging it, and the sales warrant we'll do more. Honest.

Stefano's art is really going to blow people away on this one. As the book gets closer and closer to coming out-- and Marvel releases more AVENGERS: THE INITIATIVE preview art online-- I am positive everyone's going to be heralding Stefano Caselli as the next big thing.

This is NOT going to be "just another Avengers book". I think people are going to get very different reads out of BOTH of Bendis AVENGERS titles-- and what we're doing over in AVENGERS: THE INITIATIVE will be its own thing as well. Just think about the X-Books and how different in flavor a title like X-FACTOR is from UNCANNY-- or how different EXILES is from ASTONISHING.

And, yes, everytime I see Roughneck's avvy, I wanna dance too.

Ok, PWNED by the man himself. I apologize, then.
C'mon, Dan, we KNOW it's not gonna be "just another Avengers title". That's what we've been saying all along and that we have faith in you (which is why the whole 6 ish thing/rant).

P.S.- For those of you who haven't seen him before or registered after the couple of threads he's made here: Yes, it is Dan Slott.

In SHE-HULK #15 (which won't be out till Jan.), there's a brief scene in Doc Samson's office. The super hero who's on his couch is Yellow Jacket.

Right now, the only people who know that are me, Rick Burchett (the penciler), Cliff Rathburn (the inker), and the editors (Tom, Aubrey, and Molly).

I would have picked something from this week's SHE-HULK #14, but I think preview copies went out last Weds.

Check back in January and see if it's for real.

 

[Harlekin]

Wow, that's a pwning alright.

Heck, you actually got me jonesing for She-Hulk #15 now, since I've always loved Doc Samson's psych sessions and I like Yellowjacket.

 

[Tropico]

Dan, any news on the GLC action figures? Or did you have to settle for the customized ones?

 

[Doc Destruction]

Dan, thank you for giving me the chance to buy an Avengers title again that isn't Avengers Next!

You da man n stuff.

 

[Brainiac 8]

Great writing Dan.

Just want you to know that you are one of the best writers Marvel has at the moment...keep at it.

Dan pwns on ASSHAT level. I think Dan gets a honorary membership.

 

[Harlekin]

Dan pwns on a level superior to ASSHAT.

 

[Darthphere]

Sorry Harlekin, impossible.

 

[Harlekin]

Impossible to Dan Slott simply means things he hasn't done without his hands yet.

 

[Kevin]

What does ASSHAT mean, anyway?

 

[Harlekin]

Is that a trick question?

 

[Kevin]

No, i'm actually that slow...

 

[Kevin]

Seriously, what does it mean?

 

[Darthphere]

Impossible to Dan Slott simply means things he hasn't done without his hands yet.

That sounds naughty.

What does ASSHAT mean, anyway?

Its on a need to know basis, and you don't need to know.

 

[Kevin]

...

 

[Darthphere]

Mybe one day you'll pwn someone so good we'll consider you for ASSHAT scout team.

 

[Kevin]

i'll never be that good.

 

[Darthphere]

I hate to instill false hope in you but, yeah you're right.

 

[Kevin]

I know i'm right. I wouldn't have said it otherwise, jerk.

 

[deemar325]

Hey this got me thinking (Yeah I know...) Let's do a thread kinda like the Chuck Norris Facts only with Dan Slott and other creators.

If it's stupid shoot it down now so I can move on.
