Well, it’s about to get even better.

DC Comics announced this morning that Frazer Irving will follow Andy Clarke as artist on Batman and Robin beginning with June’s Issue 13.

Irving, who collaborated with writer Grant Morrison on 2005’s Seven Soldiers: Klarion the Witch Boy, joins an impressive art roster that’s already featured Clarke, Frank Quitely, Philip Tan and Cameron Stewart.

That brings us to DC’s other Bat-related announcement — the full artist lineup for the six-issue miniseries: Chris Sprouse, Issue 1 (Cave-Batman); Irving (Solomon Bat-Kane), Issue 2; Yanick Paquette (Bat-Beard), Issue 3; Cameron Stewart (Bat Revere), Issue 4; Ryan Sook Issue 5 (Bat Spade); and Lee Garbett, Issue 6. The miniseries debuts in May.

Here’s a look at Irving’s Return of Bruce Wayne #2 Variant.

So cool.

Great Comic Book Moments by Grant Morrison

Posted February 7th, 2010 by Blue Beetle and filed in Information For Your Soul

Grant Morrison makes the kind of comics that I want to read. He’s not afraid to take chances, to experiment and to try new types of storytelling. He may not always succeed, but the fact that he often packs his books with moments that make the goosebumps come sort of makes up for it. He’s great at wonderful character moments, and when teamed with an artist that understands, can give you … well, take a look and you’ll understand.
