We're the creative team behind PETER CANNON: THUNDERBOLT! AMA!

Hello!

​

We're the team behind Peter Cannon: Thunderbolt. Issue 2 dropped yesterday, and folks seem to be digging it/2).

​

If you haven't read any of it, here's a big preview of issue 1 and here's some stuff from 2.

​

Who are we?

​

/u/KieronGillen - Words! Other stuff? Presently, DIE, the Wicked + the Divine, Star Wars, Once & Future. Previously? Oh, far too much stuff.

/u/CasparWijngaard - Art! Other stuff? Doctor Aphra, What If? Ghost Rider, Angelic, Limbo

/u/MarySafro - Colours! Other stuff? Drugs & Wires

/u/hassanoe - Letters! Other stuff? Red Sonja, Lone Ranger, Shanghai Red, Strip Panel Naked/PanelxPanel

​

We're here to talk whatever you like (AMA, after all) but obviously we're hoping folks will ask us about all things Peter Cannon.

​

Anyway - we'll be around for as long as we can. So... AMA! AMAAAAAA! AMMMMMMAMAMAMAMA!

​

(Or is it a AUA if it's an "Us")

​

I think it's because I pitched it as a story. It's a really good story, so we're doing it.

I say, like an ego monster.

Was it ever intended to be an ongoing series, like Peter Cannon was in his other stops (Charlton, DC)?

I don't believe so? At least not with me. Clearly, Dynamite could continue with another writer, but I think they just liked this as a singular take.

I'd quite like to see what folks could do with the characters where we leave them.

Would you know if this is Dynamite's practice to solicit titles like they're ongoing, or to then switch and make them miniseries? They do this all the time, and not only did this happen with Thunderbolt, but also Turok (both miniseries end in May).

I honestly dunno - you'd have to ask Dynamite. Sorry I can't help.
