DC Announces 'Batman: Europa'

Jim Lee Plus Euro-Creators

October 21, 2004

DC has announced plans for a four-shot, fully painted Batman mini-series featuring art by Jim Lee and several European contributors.  The concept for Batman: Europa was developed by Lee, Giuseppe Camuncoli, and Matteo Casali during Lee's recent year-long sojourn in Italy.  Casali (Bonerest, Quebrada) and Brian Azzarello (100 Bullets, Superman), who was also involved in developing the concept for the series via telephone, will co-write the series.  Lee will contribute art for the first issue, Camuncoli (The Intimates, Swamp Thing) will paint issues two and three, and Gabriele Dell'Otto (Secret War) will do the fourth issue.

Really? Artistically maybe, but another Batman v. Joker story?

He's only B level if ya a marvel Zombie - I'm really looking forward to it, Jim's issue will be a welcome return and I'm sure Gab's one will be a knockout, haven't seen the work of the other Euro chap but will just have to wait and see.

 

I wonder what the other Yank artist will be ?? Risso maybe or Turner, would really love rag's to do it

 

oh yeah the story should be cool - I have faith in Azzarello, shame we will have to wait until Sept 2005
