Here's the scoop. According to Brian Bolland from an article at comicbookresources.com he's doing covers for a "little run of Animal Man". "To wrap up, what can you tell us about your upcoming work? Well, at the moment, I’m regular cover artist on “Jack of Fables,” which is a Vertigo book. I’m supposed to be doing a series of “The Sprit” covers. And they’re going to do a little run of “Animal Man,” and I think there’s also going to be a Zatanna series that I’ve done one cover for. We’re doing a deluxe edition of “Camelot 3000” which I did first for DC, and I have to turn in a new cover for that. So I’m cover guy for the moment, but there are all sorts of other projects which I kind of have in mind -- maybe one which is a little more commercial and maybe others that would be commercial death for me that no one would actually buy. I’m not really sure, but mainly I’m a cover artist at the moment." comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=17866My dreams are coming true. I sure hope this is true and DC is giving him his own book again.

Little run = graphic novel? TERRIFIC!

I'd actually like to see Buddy meet up with an Animal Man from another universe. Maybe the Vertigo one. How would he react to this alternate version of himself?

I wonder if there is an parallel universe where his family is still dead?

Hi Guys, I don't remember how i discovered the existence of this board, but i have been coming here for a while now. I had to register to share with you right away this little tidbit just in from the live report of the DC Nation panel of NYCC 2009 on Newsarama: Yeah! I know about "Last Days of Animal Man" which i seem to recall as a mini-series. I wonder if this is what they are talking about or if it is a real new monthly series. Either way, it makes me happy it (and the character with it) is not forgotten. Still no sign of a release date though. EDIT: Slightly different story from the report on CBR:

I sure hope this is true and DC is giving him his own book again. Well, it is now official, the mini-series is coming in May and the cover is done by Brian Bolland, so that is probably what he was refering to by saying "little run" i.e. a mini-series. Now, i hope that it is not what the tidbit of info from NYCC, stated in my previous post, was refering to and that it will not stop there for Buddy. If we could get that ongoing coming after, that would be great. The sales of that mini-series will probably be a factor in DC's decision, i would think. We just have to wait again, for the mini and for other information.

I bet that, if the mini-series will be a success, they'll keep the title on-going. I'm almost sure. Go for it, Buddy, it's your second chance! Thanks, Bruce and... welcome, of course.

I'm going to buy at least two copies, (and I suggest others do so as well) with the hope that sales will be good enough to get that on-going series, we all want.
