May Previews Ninjak RETURNS!

Post by nwoslave »

And its written by.......Jeff Parker...???

his bio is pretty mundane and pedestrian. Anyone got an opinion on this guy?

Are you excited or no? Has any art been released for the interiors? Previews only has cover art.

Artwork isn't what I expected, but I'll hold off judgement. Looks like it belongs on WB

This was announced almost a year ago, so there's a whole thread about it here.

Not sure why Jeff Parker's bio is "mundane and pedestrian" to you. Seems rude.

He's been writing comics for over 25 years. His creator-owned stuff like Fallout, Interman, and Underground were great. I've found most of his Marvel work engaging, especially his Marvel Adventures Fantastic Four and all the various Jimmy Woo Atlas books. The latter indicates to me he should do well on a Ninjak title.

Criticism would be based on some level of exposure to his work. Without any it's just name calling.

Jeff Parker's Agents of Atlas was fantastic. I'm excited for this.

I'm looking way more forward to this Ninjak series.....than the next arc of X-O Manowar.

I don't mind Pullido's artwork. I liked his Heroscape pages for GenZero and I believe he did the short in XO #50 as well.

The recent good feedback about Shadowman (I won’t get my copy for another week or so) has me hopeful.

Maybe this time will be different. Maybe Valiant has changed this time.
