I’m sure that Joe, Pepe and John will do an incredible job on the series. I’ve been following all their work for many years, and they know how to weave the right webs–I can’t wait to read it!”>In addition to gracing some of Marvel’s hottest series with stunning variant covers in the coming months, Di Meo is working on interiors for a yet-to-be-announced Marvel Comics series launching later this year.

The project we are building together is truly a dream. It will be a little longer before I’m able to talk about it, but it is something that I hope the fans will appreciate. The team and I are doing our best to create something unique. It is a new artistic challenge for me, but I love to challenge myself!”

>>147149476>the year’s most anticipated launchAnticipated by who??
>>147149505By everyone.>muh contrari-shut up, keep quiet
>>147149738>Everyone.Nah. No one cares about a book where nothing ever happens.
>>147149738Yeah yeah and the high sales will be because of the 1:100 incentive variant covers/relaunch, we know the drill
>>147149476I really hate this whole concept of throwing out a new volume for no reason. I get that number 1s get a bump in sales but god damn it’s so tiring. I hope joe Kelly does a good job on the book but the franchise just seems dead, and the story is pretty much done. They don’t like or want Pete anymore for no reason beyond they seem to hate the character. I’ll buy when Lowe is done with the book, but we all know that’s not happening
>>147149476Imagine buying a comic with this as a cover and then opening it up to see JRJR’s art
>>147149476My favorite!
>>147149897It's basically been new run = new "volume" for a while now.
>>147149915JrJr isn't great, but Di Meo's interiors are a fucking eyesore since he is just rendering the hell out of the page with color effects. his BAtman and Robin was a mess and he washed out of doing it monthly fast.
>>147152199>Di Meo's interiors are a fucking eyesoreand JrJr's aren't?
>>147149476Can't fucking wait!!
