A few weeks ago during San Diego Comic-Con we announced that Boom! Studios would be teaming up with comic book legend Stan Lee to launch three all new ongoing series. The three new books have been co-created by Stan Lee and POW! Entertainment and the stories will revolve around all new characters- Soldier Zero, written by Paul Cornell with art by Javier Pina, The Traveler by Mark Waid and Star Born by Chris Roberson. Each are superhero genre books and will come out over the course of the next three months. But hey, don't let me tell you when Stan 'The Man' Lee can tell you himself! Check out the video below of Stan Lee talking about the new ongoing books he helped to create. I feel like BOOM! and POW! sound pretty good together, don't you? Does the fact that Stan Lee has attached his name to the following books make you, as a reader, more inclined to pick them up?
Boom! Studios
BOOM! Studios is a large independent comic book company founded in 2005 and based in Los Angeles, California, USA.
Check It Out, Brigadiers! Stan Lee's New BOOM! Studios Books!
Damn work computer! I can't see the images!!!
These books sound like going back to 60s stories in the present...
Clearly since I am a huge fan of Stan Lee I will be picking these books up when they come out!
" Seeing as I'm a sucker for time travel i might pick up The Traveler. "My thought too.
Will check 'em for sure.
They each sound interesting. I love what Waid is doing with Irredeemable, and Cornell's run on Action Comics has been great. May give 'em a look.
No offense, Stan, but where is your talent for ideas that haven´t been there? Alien this, alien that, and Iron Man revisited...
I will buy those books (hey, i grew up with your work - even when it was translated) but after seeing this video i don´t have much hope this will last long and Lee´s BOOM will be loud enough to be heard...
You are my Superhero, but this has no real "power" in it as ist seems to me... :(
@Luke Danes:
MAN! You guys are a terrifically tough twosome! You hear one line pitches and see a couple of panels of art and you are writing off the whole endeavor? C'mon! You'll see some interior pages of STAN LEE'S SOLDIER ZERO #1 very shortly. At least wait until you READ some of the actual book before you condemn it!
And... I've seen the pages. I've read the scripts. They are awesome. You all might just miss the boat on this one!
Best,
Chip
BOOM!
I´m not missing them, ChipBOOM, as i wrote i will buy them, but i´m not impredssed with the ideas themselves.
We will see and then all of the new Leeverse will be finally judged! ;o)
But, the times when a good Artist could save a bad storyidea for are long gone... ;o)
