The Future of Comics (I): Fiona Staples

Postby Andrew Foley on Mon May 14, 2007 11:39 pm

This is one of several threads I'm going to start to cover my various artist collaborators' work.

My DONE TO DEATH collaborator Fiona Staples is doing a cover for Devil's Due's SHEENA #2.

She has a skin bikini!

If you're interested, I'd consider it a personal favour if you ordered Fiona's specific cover, so as to hasten her inevitable rise to comic stardom (with me riding her coattails.) The order code is MAY073382.

I knew her name sounded familiar as I was looking at the credits in Gutsville #1. That back matter made this fantastic issue just sweeter! :)

THE FUTURE OF COMICS (I) IS NOW (READ "NOW" AS OCTOBER)

My DONE TO DEATH collaborator Fiona Staples takes another step towards what in comic terms qualifies as The Big Leagues, and it's about damn time someone with a budget recognized her talent. From DC/Wildstorm's October '07 solicitations:

TRICK ’R TREAT #1-4
Written by Marc Andreyko
Art by FIONA STAPLES, Grant Bond and Mike Huddleston
Covers by Breehn Burns, Sean Galloway, Ragnar and Michael Dougherty
In the best tradition of horror comics comes Trick ’r Treat, a 4-issue, weekly shipping miniseries based on the major motion picture written and directed by Michael Dougherty (co-writer of Superman Returns and X-Men 2), produced by Bryan Singer, and starring Dylan Baker, Brian Cox, and Anna Paquin.
Each issue presents a vignette and weaves together four tales of terror and laughter as we witness a sleepy suburban neighborhood’s transformation into a Halloween horror! Small towns have never been so full of creepy characters — from a serial killer who specializes in poisoning candy and a group of mischievous kids who unearth their town's dark secret, to a young woman hunted by a masked stalker at the local festival, or a cantankerous old hermit dealing with a demonic trick-or-treater…these stories will grab hold and pull you in — whether you like it or not! The first issue ships during the opening week of this major motion picture from Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures!
Issue #1 on sale October 3; issue #2 on sale October 10; issue #3 on sale October 24; issue #4 on sale October 31 • 1-4 of 4 • 32 pg, FC, $2.99 US • MATURE READERS

I'm not sure which issue(s) Fiona's working on, yet.

In spite of the fact that I am now officially Small Potatoes, Fiona still wants to do SIX SHOTS, which makes me a happy, happy man.

Well, as happy as I ever feel, anyway.

I hate being a small potato! But...
GO FIONA!

Fiona has a brief (I think it's 3 pages) story in the latest 24/7 anthology.

Only got to skim the book at the shop before someone else bought it, but it looked pretty spiffy all around.

You heard it here (or one of my blogs) first: Fiona Staples is the Future of Comics (I).

WildStorm Comics knows this.

Click the link and marvel at Fiona's stellar artwork for the first five pages of THE SECRET HISTORY OF THE AUTHORITY: JACK HAWKSMOOR #1.

Then go and reserve multiple copies at your local retailer (Diamond order code: JAN080228).
