This week, we’re super-happy to be welcoming the great Barry Kitson (Amazing Spider-Man, Legion of Super-Heroes, Empire, FF, Azrael — the list goes on and on) on board as the new penciller of Bloodshot! Beginning Bloodshot #10, Barry and writer Duane Swierczynski are bringing Bloodshot full force into the Harbinger Wars with an all-new story arc at the heart of Valiant’s first crossover. And things are going to get out of hand pretty quick!
And meanwhile in X-O Manowar #12, Rob Venditti and Cary Nord aren’t slowing down one bit with the next epic chapter of “PLANET DEATH.” We have some big X-O news coming down the pike, so read carefully — 2013 is going to be a big year for X-O Manowar!
(And if you haven’t yet, check out the lettered preview of Quantum and Woody #1 backing up each of this week’s books!)
