Aja would be PERFECT on Ninjak!

Aja could fit on almost anything, but bloodshot, ninjak or rai would be great. Vei tends to rotate artists on arcs. Aja could do that.

Also, Mahmoud Asrar announced that he is done on Supergirl and is working on another project. He could do anything and is the type of guy that has built a respectable following. Give him Harbinger.

Here I'll make it simple:

David Aja on anything
Jeff Lemire on anything

How's that?

I haven't seen Sam's work since the Marvel / Maxx days, but I feel it might be too cartoony for Shadowman, sure he can do dark, but very exaggerated like.

I hope the Ron Marz suggestion is a joke, seriously. He ruined X-O for me with his run, shallow and bascially taking everything Layton and Gonzalez did and throwing it out and crapping on it, overall his issues almost equal the power dump that Layton took on the book in issue #68, the literal wtf moment of the entire X-O series, which cheated the fans and should have never existed, and was Layton's attempt to do a last minute purge of everything Marz created (which says something if one of X-O's creators went to that length to retcon everything he did) anyway...your entitled to your opinion, but man I still do hope you're joking...

Kieth can be a little cartoony, however if you take a look at some of his darker books (Ojo, 30 days of night, and almost any batman he did) you would see how well he'd work on a shadowman story.

As for Marz, regardless of how people feel for the direction he took XO, it was a well written story. Overall he's a brilliant writer, most of his stuff is worth picking up. Of course all writters can have low points, but I rarely see that with Marz. Also, when a writer is hired to take a character in a "new direction" then that's what they are going to do, hence with the case of him on XO.

I'd like to see Seeley on Shadowman now that Justin Jordan is gone.

krylox · Post by **krylox** » Wed Aug 07, 2013 4:33 am

grant morrison on shadowman or solar (just re-reading his doom patrol run, big fun)
barry windsor-smith on archer&armstrong (just an arc or a mini would do it)
greg rucka on rai (but he does his rai with lazarus already)
mark waid on magnus

also:
alex kot
david schulner
simon spurrier

... on NEW properties!

I'd love to see Bill Sienkiewicz and/or Klaus Janson on Shadowman

Mark Texeira...on Shadowman...

leonmallett · Post by **leonmallett** » Fri Aug 23, 2013 1:57 pm

I don't think this name has cropped up, but i would love to see a series of covers (maybe 1 months worth of variant covers) by Travis Charest.

I'd also like to see someone like Cully Hamner on Quantum and Woody.

Oh Liss and Zircher on Shadowman would have been awesome, he'd just kill it on a Dr. Mirage book

The more I think about it, Liss on Dr. Mirage would just be perfect.

Valiant seriously needs to hire Kurtis Wiebe.That guy is really good and i don't understand why he doesn't do more stuff.He would be amazing on shadowman. His Green Wake was awesome.I think he is going to become one if the greats.Plus Greg Rucka..nuff said

Manaf82 · Post by **Manaf82** » Sun Aug 25, 2013 2:30 am

I would probably finally drop Shadowman were it to fall victim to the harsh scrawling of Bill Sienkiewicz.

Plus David Hine. He would kill on Shadow-man working on the horror aspect of it.

I do not like Patrick Zircher's design choices.He made shadowman look like a Gimp

MarrowMan · Post by **MarrowMan** » Fri Aug 30, 2013 12:46 pm

Brian Wood. Brian K. Vaughan. Fiona Staples. JMS. Dan Slott. Dan Luvisi. Terry Dodson. Rick Remender. Mark Millar. Matt Fraction. Probably more.

Brian K. Vaughan
Adrian Alphona
Pia Guerra
These guys were awesome on Runaways, and Y, The Last Man

jmatt · Post by **jmatt** » Fri Aug 30, 2013 10:39 pm

As mentioned in another thread, here's my picks:

Edgar Rice Burroughs on Eternal Warrior
Jules Verne on X-O
Isaac Asimov on Magnus (if they ever get the rights)
Carl Sagan on Solar
Rod Serling on Shadowman (Alfred Hitchcock alternating)
John Steinbeck on Archer & Armstrong (for the Lennie and George relationship)
William Shakespeare on Harbinger (cuz he's always writing about the folly of kings, like Harada)
Moe, Larry and Curly on Quantum and Woody

Rod Serling would be *SQUEE* awesome on Shadowman!
