I've finally been given the green light to announce my next big project, hinted at in my last post. So, starting in May this year I'll be working on a "high-end Batman project" for DC. I can't say at this time who'll be writing it suffice to say that I'm extremely exited to be working with him/her and can't wait to start.My ambition at DC was always to work on something "special", not a monthly or small one shots but a book of significance, a book that might keep selling way after it's publication. Something I could sink my teeth into, something I could be proud of. This, my friends is that book. So give me a few weeks and I'll tell you all about it!

cool beans.. looking forward to it....
Ha!
Nice one, Dave. Go for it!
"Him/her"? So it's a transexual? Pre-op or post-op? A hermaphrodite? Dammit, can't think of any hermaphrodite comic writers. Except a couple of dudes/whatever, but they're under exclusive contracts at Marvel.
Well, well so are you gonna create a creative graphic novel like "Joker"? Your "Arkham Asylum" was really cool, and now you could also team-up with Alan Grant and create serious, dark story.
And as I can see in that picture, it's gonna be really vicious, so good luck.
bat-tastic bud!!, very pleased to see your drawing batty, looking forward to seeing how it will take shape .
best

Congratulations!
Excellent! It'll be great to see you back on Bats.
Sign me up for a front row bat-seat. Good news!
Thanks for the support guys! Much appreciated.
Mark...ok ok! It's a man and not one of those configurations you mention!
Nice one Dave, can't wait to see some sneak peeks on the blog. That lttle pic above is great!
Cheers Dylan. That image is taken from Legends of The Dark Knight #100, the second book DC ever published that wasn't inked. (the first being part of a Sandman story)
Brilliant news Dave, congratulations! I hope you can still fit plenty of 2000AD work in there, sleep and food are very over-rated thngs you know!
Congrats Dave, looking forward to seeing more! love the Bat sketch to!
Holy cow!
I have to confess, I keep coming back just to look at this image. I am in love! Reminds me a little of the work of Frederic Dorr Steele.
I hear your confession Ian, you are forgiven. ;)
I should clear this up...the image is from issue 100 of Legends of the Dark Knight and shows how I'll be approaching this new project.
I was reminded of your amazing art by your recently reprinted Robin story from Legends of the Dark Knight. Very excited to see you coming back to Batman.
Thanks so much Anon, very kind words indeed. More on the subject coming very soon...
great Batman. Very moody.
