Cover to Gotham Adventures #45

[James Harvey]

Yes! Darwyn Cooke is doing cover to Gotham Adventures! Look at this great cover for the December issue:

Ooooooh man, great picture! That has to be one of my fave TNBA pics I've ever seen! Darwin is a GREAT artist!

(can't wait to read Catwoman)

[Bird Boy]

that is a very snazzy cover..I'll probably buy that one too.. :D

Bane doesn't look to happy on the cover though..lol

[Salvor]

Oh yeah... this one is by far the best BGA cover ever!

[James Harvey]

It's my second favorite cover, after B:GA #1 which had bar none the PERFECT cover.

[Nightwing]

Brilliant!! I just wish I could come up with themed ideas like that for MY drawings. They come, but NOT AT ALL like that!! Not to mention: Gorgeous!! Excellent job. Hehe, I wish I'd thought a that. :p

[Trent Lane]

That's great! I wondered how this cover was going to look and it is no doubt one of my new favorites...

[James Harvey]

I hope Cooke continues to do the xcovers. His belated run on BB made the cover stand our great (BB #23 is THE BEST cover to that series) and I'd like to see his covers continue on.

[Maxie Zeus]

That's a really neat cover, especially when you start looking at some of the details in the picture.

[James Harvey]

It is cool. I think the tied up Gordon and kissed-into-submission Bullock is a bit funny.

[Joker85]

I hope this issue is as good as the cover. Are all the inmates going to be in it? That would be so cool!!!!!!:D

[James Harvey]

Head over to the Newsboard to find out! The synopsis does sound real good. Hopefully Pteerson won't muck it up.

[Trent Lane]

Maybe with Levins writing the story with Peterson it won't be too bad....

[James Harvey]

True...Levins is co-writing. I'd love to see Darwyn Cooke handle the interiors as well, but Cooke is busy with doing the first 4 issue arc of CATWOMAN. Nuts...

I'd love to see PUCKETT return....

[Poison Carley]

OMG! That is sooo cute. :) I do not like how they changed Ivy's skin color again though.

[Bird Boy]

quick question: why is the Creeper with the villians? He's a good guy, and according to "Beware the Creeper" he never went to prison.....was he in a story line I missed?

Actually, I didn't co-write this issue with Scott. The only story I've contributed to is next month's #43. But I thank you for your faith in my writing abilities, which have as yet been untested...:)

As for #45, it doesn't feature EVERYONE on the cover. There are, however, cameos by Killer Croc, Commissioner Gordon, Two-Face, the Mad Hatter, Harley and Ivy, with larger roles going to the Riddler, the Ventriloquist, Maxie Zeus and Clayface. And I think it's a really fun story!

Whoa! The Tim Levins? Wow, that's cool. We've got some celebrities here...

[TIM]

Oops, I forgot to mention that the Joker will also appear in #45, and that I LOVE Darwyn's cover!

Actually, I'm glad they changed her color there - she looks awful with that pale white skin! Its nice to see her with some color! Interesting that they gave both her and Catwoman normal colored skin again - wonder if that's going to happen in the comic too, or if it was only done on the cover.

[James Harvey]

Catwoman had "normal" colored skin in B:GA #24 which worked real well with her costume. Anyone remember?

You know, now that you've mentioned it, I do remember that! Completely forgot about it. Hopefully they'll stay with a "normal" color - I never really liked the white/pale skin coloring.

Really cool cover!!!

I noticed the skin color changes too. Also, Joker is more BTAS style, w/ red lips and yellow undershirt. And the Mad Hatter's suit and hat are black and his hear is red.

But those are just things i noticed. It still is one of the best covers i've seen for BGA!

Joker looks like he did in ROTJoker. I think it's the best incarnation of the prince of crime thus yet..

The cover does look great, and I like the little tweaks made here and there to the characters. I hope they start using the ROTJ Flashack Joker more and more...
