Darwyn Cooke's New Frontier! A long, insightful interview with the amazing "new" fan-favorite artist (Selina's Big Score, Catwoman, Batman: Ego) on his careers in animation and comics, from his involvement on the ground-breaking Batman animated show to Darwyn's current DC maxi-series, The New Frontier! Plus a massive gallery of rarely-seen and unpublished artwork, all behind a brand-new cover by Darwyn. We also begin our series of interviews with the best editors in the field as we chat with Mark Chiarello, acclaimed art director and significant creative force behind the recent DC resurgence and noted artist in his own right. This issue's CBA Classic explores The Adventures of Little Archie, the late '50s-'60s comic book that transcended the typical kids comics of the day. We feature extensive interviews with Little Archie creator, outstanding artist/writer Bob Bolling, and artist Dexter Taylor, plus an intimate look at innumerable aspects of that delightfully suspenseful and exciting funny book! Also: new Jay Stephens sketchbook section! Plus our usual news, views & reviews, and more cool stuff! Edited by Jon B. Cooke.
