Wow! It's in better shape than the auction photos indicated (with WHITE pages, too - the cover is slightly heavier stock, almost like linen paper)! :banana:

Bleeding Cool took part in an IDW interview panel, and it turns out Mark Waid is going to publish a new Rocketeer story arc.

 

:whee:

 

Following the success of the Rocketeer Collection and Dave Stevens Sketchbook will be a hardcover collecting the late creator’s Covers and Stories, set for a July 2012 release. It will include work of his that is rarely, if ever reprinted. The topic then shifted to the next Dave Stevens themed announcement, which caused a cosplayer dressed as the Rocketeer to enter the room, but be shooed out by the panel because it wasn’t time yet. The announcement was for the second Rocketeer Adventures anthology miniseries, with covers by Darwyn Cooke, stories by Sandy Plunkett, Stan Sakai, Walt Simonson, pin-ups by Art Adams, J. Scott Campbell and more.

 

The NEXT Rocketeer announcement was for the first Rocketeer extended story to be published since Steven’s death. The cosplayer finally got to enter the room, made his way to the dais, where he took a seat. Slowly he removed his helmet to reveal… Mark Waid. He will be writing a four issue Rocketeer miniseries along with artist Chris Samnee. The series will deal with returning villains from the secret pasts of Cliff’s mentors, and the growing threat of the agency that would become the FAA and how regulation of flight means that the Rocketeer’s days are numbered.

Sounds like a George Lucas project. I really think they should throw some money to the fanboy that did the animated short film a few months ago. Like I've said before, it would be better than most of the garbage out there.

You are definitely becoming the Dave Stevens librarian.

 

If I present my library card, can I please check out Jungle Comics 1 CGC 9.8? I promise to bring it back.

 

:devil:

Interesting. So a dealer I haven't bought from in a while - and I thought was not a member on this forum - out of the blue just sent me a note he has a Jungle Comics 1 CGC 9.8 on the way back from CGC.

 

Amazing who monitors these threads. :hi:

Are you going to email the Dave Stevens estate site to see if they will add this to the official checklist? They'd probably appreciate the information and the photo.

I don't think they manage the site. I think it's done by a business man from Sweden. :)

Dang Sven. He needs to get on the ball and quit it with the nature walks.

Ah, don't worry about me, I have 16 more Stevens books already in process right now :)

 

When's the next sale? :shy:
