So do I.
Congrats on getting the Superman story approved. Given the hints DC has dropped in regards to the New Gods, this is the right time to revisit those stories. Best of luck with it.

Thanks for the support guys. It is indeed the right time to revisit these stories. With all the rebooting of Superman's origins, these stories don't make the most sense any more. There is no official first meeting anymore and we hope to change that. Besides, I'll be working with ABNETT and LANNING! Me am happy about that.

Oooh cool, New Gods! Always loved those character designs! I think I first discovered them with the 80s Super Powers cartoons - a bunch of those folks became action figures in the DC toy line. Can't wait to see it Chris!

It seems there will be a slight delay. The script for the Superman story won't be done for a little bit. I'll be doing an issue of the Teen Titans that will lead directly into Countdown. The issue will feature both Nightwing and Donna Troy. And yes indeed, it is great to see the New Gods take the spotlight. I loved Walt Simonson's run on Orion. He'sone of the few writers who actually gets the Fourth World. His twist with Mr Miracle is one of the best additions to New God lore.

You'd have another definite buyer right here--I'd love to see that type of mini done by you Chris.
Looking forward to the Superman/New Gods stuff too. Agree completely on Simonsin's Orion (and his back-up stuff in Byrne's Fourth World).

I just spent some time this week with Andy Lanning at the NY Con. We went over some specifics regarding the Superman story and the ideas just keeep getting better. I'm currently busting my ass on the Titans and can't wait to draw this story. The support on this site has been incredibly fulfilling. I hope you all like the final product.

The issue guess stars Nightwing and Donna Troy. It does connect directly into Countdown. There will be a brief but memorable scene with Jason Todd. Overall there's not much I can reveal. The issue is more of a set up for the next story. I am totally digging drawing Nightwing. One of my absolute faves. I hope you all enjoy the final product!

I, for one, certainly did! And the fact that Nightwing is one of your favorites really showed. Your Donna was beautiful, too (many artists can't seem to capture this).
I hope you get to draw either of them-- or any of the Titans characters-- on a more permanent basis, soon.
I've heard rumblings that there might be a book featuring the more 'adult' Titans. If there is, I think you should get your name in the hat!
Of course, you'd always be welcome to return to the Legion, too!

Spectacular job on this issue of TT Chris! Nightwing & Donna have rarely looked better. Hope to see much more.
