Comics Should Be Good says Mouse Guard looks great. I agree.

Ultimately, they come across a great danger, but even after they defeat this danger (in a beautifully illustrated action scene), there is a second, hidden danger to face. What REALLY impressed me by Petersen’s writing is how, like a good writer, early dialogue that seems ONE way seems a whole other way based on further revelations.

Comic Book Commentary (no longer available) has details on Speakeasy losing ANOTHER title: Rosario Dawson’s Occult Crimes Taskforce will be published by Image instead. (The press release is currently at the top of the Image blog (permalink is broken), with some cool-looking art.) Even weirder is how much Speakeasy has gone underground:

Their web site is currently being overhauled; their MySpace page has no content of note on it; and their recently appointed editor/PR guy, Vito Delsante, has been curiously silent since said appointment a few weeks back, even deleting his own announcement of the appointment from his LiveJournal without any explanation.

(I got the email about Vito’s announcement, followed by another email that said “please don’t post this, details are being worked out” and never heard anything more.)

Franklin Harris has some intriguing speculation on spoilers from the latest Nightwing.
