WRITE NOW! #8 combines forces with DRAW! #9 in a how-to the like of which has never been attempted before! In this crossover, comics industry pros Danny Fingeroth and Mike Manley (their Darkhawk series is still a fan fave) document the steps they take to create an all-new character! You’ll see the process they go through as ideas are proposed, tried out, and modified, until a character’s look and origins are arrived at, storylines are ironed out, and Mike and Danny produce a story starring their new top-secret creation! The results of their labors will be a pullout, full-color printed comic in DRAW! #9, the second part of this groundbreaking crossover! WRITE NOW! #8 features a photo cover of this all-new character being created, and also includes the long-awaited interview with Black Panther and The Spider’s Don McGregor! An interview with Stuart Moore, Marvel Knights senior editor and red-hot writer of Lone! An insider’s look at how to get your independent comic published, by Abel’s acclaimed creator William Harms! More great Nuts & Bolts how-to features, and a surprise or ten! If you have any interest in how comics are created—then you cannot miss these two landmark magazines!
