>Another announcement! In the spirit of 1985-1986's "DC Challenge," a 12-issue series where 12 teams of creators told one story, round-robin style, DiDio announced the "Kamandi Challenge," where 12 writers and 12 artists were "carefully selected" and then paired at "random" to tell a story starring Jack Kirby's Kamandi, The Last Boy On Earth.

Pretty hyped for these. Too bad they couldn't get Paul Pope to do one
Does José Luis García-López still do good work? I love his work on Jonah Hex and Twilight, but those were both long ago
>>81575839
What's the point of the map if they are telling a connected story? Is it like multiversity with one shots that connect?

>Does José Luis García-López still do good work?
I think he does. Can't remember what he drew in recent years in comics, was the Batman '66 comic with Harlan Ellison's Two-Face story the most recent?

>Is it like multiversity with one shots that connect?
If not that's how I'm going to treat it, most of those creative teams don't interest me
>>81575839
>>Marguerite Bennett & Dan Jurgens
Wow, now THAT'S a shit team.
>>81576032
I didn't even know he still did monthlies
>>81576382
Dan Jurgens is actually a decent, occasionally good, artist though
>>81576005
I'm really interested in the Steve Rude issue. I love the guys work in Nexus.
>>81576600
Jurgens drew a lot of Grell Warlord, he has a very nice high fantasy style.
>Books nobody will buy
So the artistic quality of these limited series DC vanity projects sure has gone downhill because this feels like the next one of those.
But it doesn't seem up to the concept of Wednesday Comics or the talent of Solo or BM:Black and White
Fun fact: Jurgens and Giffen were both artists on the original DC challenge
>>81575839
Fucking dope idea
