The Detective Comics sale came during the first session of Heritage Auction’s four-day Comics & Comic Art event, which runs through Nov. 22 and features the so-called “Alfred Pennyworth Collection”, a Batman-centric collection from Randy Lawrence; his Batman No. 2, from 1940, sold for $63,000 during the same session.

Edmonton comic book illustrator recruited for Marvel’s Indigenous series

 
 

An Edmonton comic book illustrator is joining the Marvel team to illustrate part of a new anthology.

Kyle Charles received an email from Marvel Comics in August, asking if he would be a part of Marvel’s Voices: Indigenous Voices Volume 1.

“I just couldn’t believe it,” he said. “Usually you have to fight to get in to Marvel. You have a lot to prove. For them to come to me… it was unexpected.”

For the anthology, Charles worked on the story of Danielle “Dani” Moonstar and drew a brand new Indigenous mutant for the X-Men series.

“Dani Moonstar is an Indigenous female mutant,” he said. “She’s got wicked powers. She’s part of the New Mutants, that was really punk rock back in the 80s.”
