The Last Defenders

[PhotoJones]

The Defenders are coming back in March with a new 6 issue miniseries. Newsarama interviewed Joe Casey about the book, and in true Newsarama fashion, they made absolutely no mention of the artist.

Is that one of the Brothers Grimm Nighthawk is fighting?

Marvel stop it, my wallet hurts

I was thinking it's a Hellfire Club agent, myself.

Could be.

Do they ever fight non-x people? Or should I say would the x-office let anyone else use them? I mean, if no one can use Shi'ar except mutie books...

 

[PhotoJones]

It's not like they're being used anywhere else, so I don't see why not.

 

[Harlekin]

Interesting.

It's not like they're being used anywhere else, so I don't see why not.

Making sense isn't exactly x-office norm.

 

[PhotoJones]

No, but hopefully it is for Joe Casey.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Joe Casey = I'm in.

 

[PhotoJones]

Did anyone read his recent Iron Man mini?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

The one with Frazer Irving on art?

 

[yenaled]

Off the top of my head the only thing I know I have read from him was Majestic, which of course was awesome.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

He wrote a lot of Wildcats vol. 2 and all of vol. 3, pretty much all of which was fantastic.

 

[PhotoJones]

The one with Frazer Irving on art?

No, the one with the Eric Canete art.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Nope. The only recent Iron Man series by Casey that I'm even aware of is The Inevitable, which featured Irving art:

 

[PhotoJones]

That mini was good. Great art, too.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

'Twas.

 

[PhotoJones]

Irving's latest project, Gutsville, is having some serious delays.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I'm not reading it. I can't remember why, but I think the concept didn't sound that interesting.

 

[PhotoJones]

An 18th century society existing for generations inside the belly of a giant sea creature after being swallowed doesn't interest you? The addition of a Cold War era Russian sub also after being swallowed doesn't interest you?

Damn.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, no. They're inside a whale. Big deal.

 

[RockSP]

The one with Frazer Irving on art?

I somehow missed the last issue and have yet to find it anywhere

 

[RockSP]

Irving's latest project, Gutsville, is having some serious delays.

Did any issues past #1 ever come out?

 

[PhotoJones]

Yeah, no. They're inside a whale. Big deal.

With mutant rats and alcohol made from bile. You won't read that, but you'll read Blue Beetle. Lame.

Did any issues past #1 ever come out?

Yeah, issue #2 came out months ago. That was the last one so far, though.
