New DCU Blog, with RUN! Preview

There’s a new DCU blog called The Source, run by the very charming Alex Segura that should be worth looking at for DC fans. It’s nice to see that my dark overlords at DC are dipping a toe into this whole “Internet” thing.
One of their first posts contains preview pages of RUN!, or I should say, Final Crisis Aftermath: RUN! which is now its official title. This is the mini that I’m doing with Freddie Williams II, who is incredibly awesome and talented. And it’s edited by DC’s Vice-Editor in charge of Kickass Ian Sattler (I don’t know if that’s his actual title, but it should be), who actually contributed a lot of very good ideas to the story. It’s not often that an editor will say to you, “Hey, what if . . .” and instead of cringing you actually find yourself saying, “Wow, that’s a really good idea. I wish I’d thought of that.”
Anyway, have a look at the preview pages — it’s a shame you don’t get the two-page spread in its entirety because it really encapsulates what the whole series is about. If you laughed but at the same time felt slightly guilty about laughing, then you’re the target audience. If you can’t see the fun in seeing kindly nurses getting punched in the face . . . well, let’s just say that’s the classy part of the story.
