Interesting! Boom! acquired Archaia Entertainment not too long ago and have their first (I think?) movie property coming out next month - 2 Guns with Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg. Interesting to see what else they have planned in the near future.

DC's stupidity is BOOM!'s gain. Looking forward to seeing what Perez does.

Interesting. If it is a super hero title I WILL be buying, sight unseen.

Maybe he'll get a chance to finally finish Crimison Plauge a book that he started under Event Comics and when that company went under it then moved to Gorilla/Image and then that imprint fell apart.

[Lightning Strike]

Guess I'll be buying something from Boom

[leonmallett]

Has there been any hint as to what his project will be?
