JUSTICE LEAGUE CANADA Is Coming in 2014!

At this weekend's FAN EXPO Canada THE TORONTO STAR  announced that I will be taking the reigns as writer of DC Comic's Justice League of America title this Spring with the brilliant Mike McKone joining me as the books artist.

I was also on CANADA AM this morning on CTV discussing the project...

We're not revealing the full roster of the new Justice League team yet, except for one of my all time favourite DC characters ADAM STRANGE!  Adam will finally appear in the New 52 DCU and he will be a Canadian! Mike McKone and I will also be creating a brand new Canadian character for the team during the Justice League Canada arc.

Aside form Adam Strange the rest of the roster will be made up of my dream team of DC characters. A few of these characters are members of the current team, but many have never been in a Justice League before (note, the cover image above was just a mock-up for the announcement and not representative of the actual team).

Obviously I'm pretty excited about the gig, and the most exciting thing of all is that we will be changing the book's title to JUSTICE LEAGUE CANADA for our first story-arc before the book permanently changes into something else...something bigger...so stay tuned!

5. Trillium
Star-in-the-making writer-artist Jeff Lemire is set to unveil his new creator-owned miniseries, a futuristic adventure billed as “the last love story every told.” Lemire’s work is always strange, emotionally charged, and utterly unique, and Trillium looks like the most fascinating entry in Vertigo’s impressive upcoming slate (which also includes Neil Gaiman’s return to The Sandman.)

EXCLUSIVE PREVIEW OF TRILLIUM #1!

CLICK HERE to catch the first look at artwork from TRILLIUM #1 on sale August 7!

It’s the year 3797, and botanist Nika Temsmith is researching a strange species on a remote science station near the outermost rim of colonized space. It’s the year 1921, and renowned English explorer William Pike leads an expedition into the dense jungles of Peru in search of the fabled “Lost Temple of the Incas,” an elusive sanctuary said to have strange healing properties. Two disparate souls separated by thousands of years and hundreds of millions of miles. Yet they will fall in love and, as a result, bring about the end of the universe. Even though reality is unraveling all around them, nothing can pull them apart. This isn’t just a love story; It’s the LAST love story ever told.

Trillium is an 8-issue series that combines rich historical adventure and mind-bending science fiction into a sprawling, unconventional love story by Jeff Lemire (SWEET TOOTH, ESSEX COUNTY GREEN ARROW, ANIMAL MAN).

This amazing miniseries kicks off with 28-pages of story in a flip-book with two covers and two separate but connected stories!
