Earlier today, I got a mysterious bit of art in my inbox that I wanted to share with you all. I’ll let you know everything I know about it:
- It’s coming from Image Comics
- It’s writer Ales Kot’s new project
and that’s it. No idea what it’s called, who the artist is, or anything other than the below…let the speculating begin!

Looks like Riley Rossmo art to me .

This link agrees with that.
Riley’s EVERYWHERE these days. Good for him.
Regarding Riley Rossmo being involved with this project: that’s one way of seeing it.
If you take a look at some of the more recent viral campaigns across the media landscape, you may realize that planned deception is often part of the game.
I know Riley, and I can openly admit that we’re working on something together.
Is it this comic? Don’t be so sure.
That sounds awesome! Rossmo is great! But I’m surprised he can do this with Rebel Blood, Debris, and Bedlam all coming out this year.
Big ups to Ales for trying to stay in spirit for the teasers and everything, but its clearly Riley.
Let me put it this way: if this is Riley’s work, I’m going to send you a free copy of the comic once it comes out.
Interesting… I didn’t think it was Riley initially, mostly because of the faces in the last panel. It’s definitely Rossmoesque.
If this is Rossmo, it’s the cleanest work of his I’ve ever seen. It’s missing his trademark sketchiness.
Have you seen his stuff in Debris? It’s VERY clean. Wiebe has posted some art from it.
The art is very ‘eye catching’ indeed. .Is that a camera lens of some sort?
The cryptic reference to lies in the same breath as ‘existence’, ‘meme’, ‘virus’ and ‘protein’ seems to suggest a science/religion conversation. Reinforced by the hint that our generation needs to grow up as it relates to this ‘lie’ we’ve told ourselves over the years.
I may be way off, but I’m intrigued!
That’s totally Alex Ross. Dialogue by Stan Lee.
More importantly…this is obviously She-Hulk, 2nd panel confirms it
That’s some interesting writing.
And I don’t know about you guys but Those people to the right kinda look like there in fear.
This looks cool guys.
I thought there was dirt on my screen from all the black dots.
The ink spots – all part of a larger plan. Supposed to be there, yes.
I smell a Grant Morrison script.
I know Ales Kot’s the writer, but there’s definitely a Morrison-esque quality to the dialogue.
I’d say Grant & I share some common ground, yes.
Yeah, the pacing is very Grant. Which is cool, but also a shame. No artist should practice imitation. No offense Ales, I’m really curious about the story.
The pacing of this teaser is an example of one of the oldest storytelling tricks in comics, David – not something Grant Morrison invented. There’s no shame in learning from the best, but limiting myself by just imitating another artist–however great he is–is not what I’m interested in.
I’m glad you’re curious about the story, and I hope you’ll read it with your mind wide open.
Duly noted that Grant didn’t invent it, he just epitomized it.
I wish Riley and A.J. Lieberman would do more Cowboy Ninja Viking. Even just one more story to resolve the cliffhanger from the last issue.
