- We always love having some fantastic news to carry into the weekend, and this one’s no exception. Kevin has finished a project that we’ve heard many questions about, both through e-mail and at his live gigs. With the writing on “Spidey/Black Cat†done now, we’re excited to hear that a “written by Kevin Smith†comic will be hitting the shelves soon! Here’s Kev:
I have finished writing the “Spider-Man/Black Cat: Evil That Men Do†mini-series.
For those of you who’re new (or don’t follow comics), this is a mini series I started writing back in 2001. I turned in script for issue three back in September of 2002.
But as of a few moments ago, I just forwarded the script to issue six to Axel at Marvel. It’s done.
And while I have zero defense for my lateness (particularly when folks like Bendis turn out great stories in multiple books on a monthly basis), I will say this: it’s a much better story now that it would’ve been had I completed it back in ‘02. But judge that for yourselves when it comes out (or don’t; believe me – I’d understand if folks were like “Fuck him for making me wait three years. I ain’t buying it.â€).
Terry Dodson is done drawing issue four, and is well into issue five. Don’t know when this puts the book on track for, but my guess is by year’s end, or Jan. ‘06.
Anyway, just thought I’d share that. Thanks, all, for your patience.
One down, one to go! Once Kevin finishes “Targetâ€, we’re hoping he might be inspired to take up another comics run somewhere — We miss seeing regularly-scripted books coming from the guy.
