Mail. (it's tate) YOU MAKE ME SO MAD!! | HATE YOUI! ‘Ok. Hopefully that attracted your attention so you can print my fetter, (Yes ‘have various unpleasant ways of getting my way, but It’s get on with the Jeter, shall we?) ‘Love your comic. | coud finish my letter there, but 'l keep on going ‘What tTove about your comic, despite many complaints i the violent art Abstract art appeals to some people, while superheroes beating the crap out of ‘ther people appeals to mo! it’s also more realistic. And also te other thing | love about the comic is YOU! I's so great having ike two pages of letters that you respond to ina humorous way! Keep up the good work, we are counting onyou! Sincerely Christian LoBugl Robert Kirkman, the second awesomest man inthe world, second only to | was 60 totally not going to print this letter until that part at the end. Lord Kirkman, HOLY CRAPII | totaly loved ish 35 | expected the books to be some sort of cary, butt totaly makes sense that he could write sci-fi books and no one ‘would know that they were actually true stories. This is gonna be a huge buildup to an al out war.. can’t wait. and Olver isa rockin’ name, Loved the ‘chat with Mark and art. ‘Oh man, llove this book, do you know that? There's ‘gonna be some female drama soon too, | can feet... oh yeah, the super-sized Hardeover isa wicked coo thing too, just gotta figure out i | can realy afford $5125 fora copy.even the discount I get for working at a comic store might not be enough to really handle that..but then again, its invincible, so! guess | ‘should grab a ski mask and start knockin’ over some iquor stores. anyway, til next time MAKE MINE KIRKMAN! Mr Lumptastic You can afford it. Buy that giant hardcover--you'll be happy you did. Fob, | don't know ifthe whole “Peter Parker Kirkman” thing isa joke or not, but hope i's tue. f my wife and I have a Daughter, want to name her Aurora after Sleeping Beauty. But what's awesome i that before my wife and | discussed this, she told me her fist choice for a gint's name fs Aurora because she thinks, it's prety Sof we ever have a gir, she'l be named after Briar Rose Insert snarky comment here and print me darnit. Greg “takes fition to far” Osborne Sleeping Beauty is totally lame—t named my kid aftr Spider-Man--SPIDER- MAN! Lame-o. SAY THEE NAY! No, “Ve Gods" is better. Sorry. So are you really regretting getting Vince off the desert word in one issue? Yes, it ould have been cool to see him siranded there fora while, but it wasn't so long ago that Savage Dragon di thal, and there's no reason wy you can’t go back and explore that concept a later date. I hope you do, as think there's some fun stores in that, but there's lots of other fun stuf going on in the comic Fight now, 80 we don't need it immediately. En, Mark had places to be. it never even occurred to me that he'd be there {for while. And, y'know. he was there ALONE... had he been there more ‘than 8 pages it would have gotten REALLY boring. #95 was another good issue. liked how low-key it was, and yet the overall story was stil carted through, and we gota oreatcifhanger even though ‘there was no action as suc If may have been a bt too wordy in places though; is April supposed tobe one of those chatty types who wil stand on your doorstep and reel off huge amounts of informaton? Iso, then | stand corrected, You stand corrected. | thought it was obvious she was chatty. PAL: Oh, and | was a bt disappointed to see that The Aliens Who Can Take Oui Vttrumites weren't Battle Beast’s people. More Batle Beast! Give it time, 0 yeah, eventhough tis lttr's full of complaints, I realy did lke #38. Really ood stuff, as always, -Kelvin Green ‘Thanks for writing... again, Kirkman, Otley, and Crabtree (aka K0.C.), ‘Another great character development issue that was Sofa King great and ein’ (good. Haw long have you been a Howard Stern fan? I haven't been listening to Howard since tie went to satel 1 plan to eventually get Sirius upon receipt of my taxes next year {never really listen to Howard. A lot ofthe gags drawn in the art (or y'know, ‘most of them) ae just Ryan having fun. Mark's dad wrote “Savage Pranet, Savage Beasts,” From the looks ofthe book's coves it shouldbe called "Savage Planet, Savage Breas Good one, | really iked Mark & Art's conversation, I'm glad you're showing that Mark is not an idiot in regards to Eve's feelings for him. Personally, hope Mark and Eve get iggy. ‘Sophea Uk [think we all do, Sophea. 1 think we al do, kos, ‘The Capes back-up story: The guy chugs human ashes. If this isn't creativity altits finest, then f don't know what the lls. Completely 9. Completely enjoyable. Like Jackass it's fun to watch, but! would never try it ‘myselt Sophea Uk You should try it--you'd tke i Dear Kirkman, ‘This issue got back to the real Invincible for me, More dialogue, more intrigue. ‘not really more action, but you can't have everything all the ime. I's pretty ‘obvious this love triangle of Mark/Amber/Eva is really just ike most love Iviangls...ike Black Knight/Sersi/ Crystal from the early 90's. In that case ‘nobody ended up with anybody. Here think you shoul be less original and have the happy ending: Mark and Eve. I mean Amber I really don't get to ‘some extent, realy. Her ist few appearances she really bitched i up--what hhappened to That? identity more with her tan Eve though, cause you never ‘see Eve in civvies anymore and Amber gets more ‘airtime’ anyway. 1 see wnat | can do. Overall think this issue had @ much better tone. | just think that Invincible tas his dad's books all wrong! This series is never gonna be as predictable as that, rigit? It's probably more of an*-It's a cookbook!!!” type scenario (you know from that old Twilight Zone). Predictable? | hope not, By the way, 'd much rather read a ‘Who's who in the IMAGE Universe’ than the just the Invincible universe, ya know what 'm sayin"? Cause that's the problem with Image: Harcly any continuity and NO crossoverst! Sincerely, Andrew J. Shaw Realy? 1 think that’s one ofthe strength’s of mage. Jack Staff is Jack Staff, Noble Causes is Noble Causes, and Godiand is Godland... you don't hhave'to read them all to know what's going on.Dear Robert Kirkman, ‘My name is Shawn Willams, 19 years old, an this is my ist time ever ‘wing a fan letter to anything. I never felt ike getting involved in it before, partly beeause| figure that it doesn't mater, it won't gt read and it won't got published, But 'm vrting one to you bocause, dammit you deserve i. After Feading about the fist ten issues of The Walking Dead and Invincible, you became my favorite comic book write. You've topped Frank Miller, Alan Moore, Brian Bendis, Mark Mila, and soon etc. Just from these two series. And I've ead the fist issue of the new lredeemable Ant-Man, and loved that one too (One too? Thats funny. Yeah--how ODD is it thatthe Ant-Man book didn’t suck? (sigh) Anyways, you are my favorite because you handle characters witha style that is ike no other, In fact, you have inspired me to become a comic writer. Ive always had a sil vith reading and wring, ever since I was a litle Kid. it wasn't until about 3 year ago that | wanted tobe a writer, (don't ask why | couldnt igure that out tut aftr | graduated, just don't know) but | couldnt igure out what | wanted fovrit. Not uni | read one of tho letters columns in TWD, andthe first thing you say init is“ LOVE this book, guys. 1F*"""G love it. "Knowing that I get to lay around inthis universe for Ue forseeable future is & damn blessing and | ‘wake up every morning and thank that big bearded quy in the sky that get to Go it" (found that one in TWD F10, on my frst try, amazing hun?) Just reading that, | could feel now much you loved your ob, and it made me want to feel the same way. ‘Comics have become my favorite way of entertainment, beating out my tifelong love of videogames and movies. couldn't dream of having a beter job than ‘iting fora comic book or two, much less a series. !love writing, is pretty ‘much the only thing 'm good at, and Ive been published in my highschool Callioge once. (It was abasic reteling of Bambi, but through his Father's POV. n't fink anybody read it though, people sald it was too long.) Sorry forthe lengthy letter, sometimes | don't know when to stop, But if you ‘ead it awesome, Ht you publish incredibly awesome. Ifyou don’, it's al Sgt ut waned get al of is my chest and actualy wate ter to ‘someone coo for once, Thanks, shawn PS, Do you have any tip on how to break into the world of comics? Td ask ‘how you did, but this fetter fs long enough asi. I you ever were to write @ How-To book on writing comics, you know Tl be there, ‘Thanks forthe kind words, Shawn. Good luck with the writing, {As far as breaking into comics goes, thats a tough piece of advice to give. Every professional has a dtferent story, | self-published comics until the right people took notice and went from there. Ed Brubaker started out ‘writing and drawing his orm comics before he decided to just write them. Brian K. Vaughan was an intern at Marvel or something. Bendis sold his ‘oul tothe devil, tor nothing rally (he's not very smart) and the frustration ‘rom making such a bum deal inspired him to become a good waiter (he right actually get there some day). So really...just D0 it. and if you're good. ‘enough, something wil happen. Time for shiling? Time for siting. ITEM! THE WALKING DEAD is stil going strong, Issue 31 should be on the ‘stands well before this issue. We're going to start wrapping up some of the Craziness that’s been going on soon, so check i out. The new BOOK ONE Hardcover isin stores NOW...s is the Volume & TPB. So check it out ITEM! BATTLE POPE has fallen behind schedule agai bricks to the many windows of Val Staples new house Please direct all He's working feverishly on the book RIGHT NOW and issue 11 should be in stores soon. I's the double-sized Christmas issue. I'm hoping it ship late enough to be out ‘ear the holiday. Fingers crossed! ITEM! MARVEL ZOMBIES is getting collected in an oversized hardcover the likes of which the world has never seen...UNTIL NOMI It features a brand- spanking-new cover by Arthur Suydam and will even feature EVERY COVER DONE forthe series. It also includes the actual comic, writen by yours truly with art by Sean Philips. I'm tod i's quite good...but who believes my mom anyway? ITEM! My run on ULTIMATE X-MEN continues! | think bythe time this issue ships, that business with Magician is dane and we're moving on to BIGGER ‘and BETTER things. The giant issue 75 should bein stores in a matter of ‘weeks afer this issue and it features the debut of ULTIMATE CABLE! I's {going to be SWEET. Stunning art by Ben Over and Jason Kieth. I've seen the pages recently and they are PRETTY! ITEM to CIVIL WAR for YOU? Buy THE IRREDEEMABLE ANT-MAN instead!

And for those of you who love Ant-Man more than life itself. This isthe book for yout We're going to be showing this guy the respect and care he deserves. Also, the art team is Phil Hester, Ande Parks 238g Bl rare on pecs, nk andelrs. So you know t's gong oe a 10 book. ‘This month’s pin-up is by BRIAN MURRAY who probably doesn't consider this his efaim to fame (and 'm sure he's doing thousands of cool things since then), butt cant help but mention it-he was the artist on SUPREME starting with issue one and going upto, don’t know, 10 oF 15 oF so. | really loved ‘that book atthe tim so i's a ig honor to have a pin-up from him, That's it for this month. 1 see you back here next month...for all kinds of cool stuff--now go read the new CAPES!
