Anthrax's Scott Ian to Write Lobo



Lobo siempre tuvo un look de metal pesado, y ahora el personaje tiene un escritor para probarlo.

De acuerdo con Scott Ian guitarrista de Anthrax, él está escribiendo dos tomos de " Lobo " de DC comics,
que se sera dibujado por el artista
Sam Kieth para el otoño de este año.



Ian
confirmó;en una entrevista con Quietus.com, diciendo
que la escritura de un libro de historietas le es muy natural,
ya
que es como estar escribiendo canciones ( eso habra que esperar para leer haber si es cierto )


Aqui les dejo un poco mas de la entrvista a Ian y info de LOBO el comic...

"I have a bit of that going on with the comic book character Lobo. I
find it much easier to write comic books than lyrics, actually, because
it's a natural dialogue," Ian said. "Writing song lyrics is not
natural, but over the years, I know what I need to know to get it done.
I find it quite easy to capture a character and use my own personality
and humor."

The guitarist also talked about the upcoming Lobo comic on his blog at UltimateBet.com, and Kieth confirmed Ian's involvement in a recent interview about his Oni series, My Inner Bimbo.

"Looking at Sam Kieth art for my Lobo book. SICK!!!!" Ian posted on his Twitter page.

Ian, who hosted Rock Show for VH1 and also starred in the reality
series SuperGroup, is writing the series while also promoting new
albums this summer from both Anthrax and the musician's other band,
Pearl.

DCU Executive Editor Dan DiDio had announced in June that Lobo would be
coming back with Sam Kieth attached, but only on art. Although the
writer for the series wasn't announced, DiDio played coy, telling Newsarama last week that the writer was someone outside the comic book industry.

"We've reached outside the normal circle of writers and have brought
someone in who will have an excellent perspective on the character –
something that's different that's sure to raise an eyebrow," DiDio said.

Lobo was created by Roger Slifer and Keith Giffen in 1983, becoming one
of DC's most popular comic characters during the 1990s, even appearing
in the cartoon television shows Justice League and Superman: The
Animated Series. The gritty-looking character, who rides on a space
cycle, has extraordinary strength and an accelerated healing factor.
But his real appeal often lies within the character's humorous
self-centered attitude and zest for mindless violence.

The character has enjoyed a revival recently, including appearances as
a recurring character in the year-long weekly series 52 and in the
two-part crossover with Batman titled Deadly Serious that Kieth wrote
and drew in August 2007.

Update: Citing "rumblings and seen reports here and
there," Thursday evening, DC Comics confirmed Ian's Tweets about his
Lobo project, stating that the two-issue, prestige format, Lobo: Highway to Hell will ship in November. At The Source, Senior Story EditorIan Sattler said, "This is everything you know and love about Lobo – extreme violence,
cursing, drinking, extremer violence...Scott was born to write this
series! And Sam has blown our minds every step of the way. I honestly
think this is some of the coolest work he’s ever done. He manages to
pull off a surprise on every page. It totally rules.”
