…And it made my freakin’ day! Actor Joe Lewis put together an amazing Drake Sinclair cosplay. Definitely the highlight of the convention for me!
NYCC
The Sixth Gun: Sons of the Gun & More!
NYCC may be over, but here are a couple of more announcements!
First up, a new spin-off mini-series, The Sixth Gun: Sons of the Gun will be launching in January. This is a story of “black hats” featuring General Hume’s horsemen. They may have died, but their infamy lives on. In this series, we explore what happened to the horsemen in between the death of the General and the first issue of The Sixth Gun. This is the tale of how the guns corrupted each of them… and how the weapons bound them together as this weird band of brothers.
Brian Hurtt is co-writing the series and the amazing Brian Churilla is illustrating it.
For more details, check out this CBR interview.
During NYCC, we also announced that there will be a hardcover edition of The Sixth Gun released in late spring. It will be oversized and chocked full of back up material!
