No, we don’t know how it got skipped, either. But here it is:
Artwork by Brian Stelfreeze, who bythe way did indeed do the cover for #5.

“Do you like my monochromatic finger-painting?”
`KIDDING!!!
Seriously, I’m quite anxious to read this series.

Peter:
I have no doubt whatsoever that your prose will be just as good as the covers.
But do you have any samples of the interior art you can post? And when will the Kaluta cover be used?
Very nice.
VERY beautiful.
I can’t wait to read issue #1!

blood on white, very striking.
The Woman’s covered in blood which obviously means she’s going to get raped and murdered and you can see the man who’s going to do it in the bottom.
Oh wait sorry I forgot I don’t make silly assumptions based on the cover.
Seriously though I continue to love the covers and I think it would look really good on a t-shirt as opposed to a poster.
oh btw I love the Fallen Angel preview that was in last week’s Horizon.
Any woman who carries around an Air Hord to mess with people on cell phones is the one for me.
i agree with lee houston. when will we see some interior art? i love David Lopez art (Espiral is one of the most interesting comics in the spanish market (or would be if he could publish more))and i can’t wait to see how he does in a reg title.
anyway, the covers are wonderful. can’t wait to read it…

Hey PAD-
I had really messed up dream last night. In it, you, Marv Wolfman and Keith Giffen gave up writing, moved to Kentuckey and became chicken farmers. Then was the part about the giant bat attacking my apartment. The first thing I did when I woke up was check my porch and their was no Guano. then I went to breakfast at the University Union. When I got back, boy was I glad to see that cover instead of an ad selling fresh PAD Fed chickens.
The art was cool to. Offically added FA to my pull list at the comic store. Found it it was already there. The guys said ‘You loved Supergirl so much and Spyboy is on hiatus after June. You need your fix, so we already put it in last month’. I said “What? You weren’t go to tell me?” They know me so well. They do this ALL the time… with 98% accuracy. It happens when you go to same guys since your first Archie in 1986 all the way through college.
These covers are really, REALLY, good.
Keep this Brain Stelfreeze on this book as the cover artist!:D
Maybe he could draw one issue to?

PAD-
When is issue 1 slated to hit the stands? Any more push from DC to promote this thing? Or are ads only going to appear in other DC publications?

If you’re interested in seeing a preview of the book, you need look no further than your local comic shop. The DC HORIZONS flier has a five page preview of the interior art.

No, Jason K., there is no rapist in this picture. The woman is showing a recognizable emotion that isn’t stark terror or corpse-like staring, unlike the other two cover pictures. In other words, the woman is a human being, and not a fetish-object for the future Columbine Kids out there.
If you care to debate this with me in person, I will be attending Comic-Con in San Diego and Dragon*Con in Atlanta this year. Funny thing; when people put on such snotty attitudes, and I suggest a face-to-face, they start making excuses and back-pedal. They can say anything on the Internet, but they lack the courage to say it in person.
Now watch the skid marks left by a full reverse bootlegger turn.
Another purty one!! How long is Stelfreeaze going to be doing the covers?

She is? What emotion is she showing? How can you tell, since the eyes are shaded pretty well in that we can’t see the entire eye? The mouth is set in a neutral line, neither turned down in a frown or up in a smile. To me, that is an absence of obvious emotion.
Sadly Thomas I live in Canada, and the financial situation makes it unlike i can travel to the states, if however you would be willing to come up in augest for the Toronto Con i would be happy to debate you in person.
PAD I don’t know know if you remember I would bet but I met you the last time in toronto and I asked you how Harlan was doing and you thought something had happened to him and you hadn’t heard. (I say this because I am sure Thomas is going to be all how very convienient that I can’t go to the various cons. So I want to at least back up my claim that I am in a different country.)
I would be happy to debate you in person but i also don’t care enough about you to go out of my way to do so.
Two questions: Have you apologised to PAD yet for assuming he was asking your opinion on the covers?
and 2, Fetish Object for the future Columbine Kids. What is that supposed to mean?
That is gorgeous.
Thank you for posting that, sir.
L o L,
quite impressed
lets see…. red means… anger, love, stop, ah… fire, ahh…. apples. what else?
Actually, I believe …
Red means stop,
Green mean go,
and Yellow means go very, very fast 🙂
Bonus to anyone who can name the movie 😀

So…are you going to go to a con that PAD is at, look at the preview pages for the comic, and then discuss it with him?
“Actually, I believe …
Red means stop,
Green mean go,
and Yellow means go very, very fast 🙂
Bonus to anyone who can name the movie :D”
I’m not sure what the bonus gets me, but it’s “Starman.”

Jason K’s interpretation of the cover really surprised me.
Knowing the premise of the series, I thought that Fallen Angel’s emotion is sadness/regret that she couldn’t save the man at the bottom who is obviously dead. It’s HIS blood, not hers.
Jason K’s interpretation of the cover really surprised me.
I think Jason was being a little facetious (sp?) and taking a not so subtle dig at Thomas E. Reed’s consistant interpretation of the book covers, even though he’s (Thomas) demonstrated no knowledge of the content of the book.
yer right PAD, It’s Starman, and to paraphrase the much-missed Troy McClure “the movie, not the comic.”
And, uhm…. the bonus…. >eyes shift< About that…. 🙂
Hi, this comic is looking better with every new piece of it coming in to view, Oh by the the way, it may have been said before and there may have been an answer but, is this “Lee” character also could be the ex-titan member Lilith? because there is a good likeness.
Obeekris, if you really read what I wrote, I said I would be at Dragon*Con and Comic-Con, two cons where Mr. David will be. I don’t need to discuss it with Mr. David, since he didn’t draw the covers. Which, remember, is the point – what do the covers say about the content of the book?
I maintain that the previous covers showed corpse-like or fear-struck women being stalked by monsters. The “red” cover shows a woman with the recogizable look of SORROW on her face. (Gerry, you nailed it.)
Sorrow clearly takes this particular cover out of the realm of you gore-lovers out there, who only want women to feel pain and fear. This cover, I might look in without worrying that I’d be traumatized or suicidally depressed.
As for you, Jason K., my e-mail address is easily clickable. I would be glad to discuss this with you in private, respectfully, without the Peanut Gallery looking over both our shoulders. Should you ever find yourself in the Lower 48, at a con where I happen to be, I’d be glad to buy you something from the bar. (It’s good to knock that July snow off your boots once in a while…just kidding.)
Which, remember, is the point – what do the covers say about the content of the book?
We’ve been over this ground before, and as I recall, you were provided with numerous examples, not only by me, that show that cover does not always equal content. For as many covers that depict, in some way, the events of the interior, there are just as many that do not, or are deliberately misleading.
As for traveling to cons, I would love to, but I have numerous other financial and time constraints that do not allow me to. Also, as noted by Jason:
I would be happy to debate you in person but i also don’t care enough about you to go out of my way to do so.
Should you ever make it to the Mid-Ohio con, I would be happy to discuss this with you there.
The “red” cover shows a woman with the recogizable look of SORROW on her face. (Gerry, you nailed it.)
To *YOU* it shows a look of sorrow. Me, I see a neutral expression on her face.
and 2, Fetish Object for the future Columbine Kids. What is that supposed to mean?
You also have not answered this question, regarding your extreme statement.
Sorrow clearly takes this particular cover out of the realm of you gore-lovers out there, who only want women to feel pain and fear.
It’s quite interesting that you should post this statement. So far, I have yet to see anybody expressing any sort of sentiments that this is going to be a gory, blood-filled book and being happy about it. The closest I have seen has actually been yourself, with your belief that the book is featuring a bunch of women being killed, raped, whatever. Again, I’ll pose the question to you, how do you know what the book is about? So far, you have presented no tangible evidence that you have knowledge of the contents of the book.
