STEVE PUGH JOINS ANIMAL MAN!



As announced today on DC's Blog, THE SOURCE the talented STEVE PUGH will be the new artist on ANIMAL MAN!

A big reason I love the Animal Man character so much is because of the work Steve did on the character back in the 90's with Jamie Delano. In fact, I don't think it would be a stretch to say that I have been heavily influenced by a lot of the concepts Steve an Jamie created and represented them in my tenure on the book. So, to have Steve join colorist Lovern Kindzierski. letterer Jared K. Fletcher and I is a a dream come true for me.

Steve is an incredibly talented illustrator as well as an extremely professional and reliable guy and with everything we have planned on Animal Man coming up, I know the Baker Family is in good hands!

And on another note I'd like to wish outgoing artist Travel Foreman the best of luck on all his future pprojects. The success of Animal Man is due in no small part to Travel's artistic vision and I was lucky to have worked with him.
