Won't Back Down OGN by Trina Robbins, Marguerite Sauvage, Gene Ha, Stephanie Cooke, Yanick Paquette, Joëlle Jones, Jill Thompson, Dave McCaig, Amy Chase and many more. Out in January 2024.

"In 1973, the Supreme Court gave women the right to make decisions over the care of their own bodies. A mere fifty years later, a rogue Supreme Court has taken that right away. Today, over 32 states have banned or severely restricted abortion. Featuring the work of over 30 artists, writers, inkers, and colorists, Won't Back Down is an important anthology that celebrates women who fight for justice-for anyone interested in women's rights, free speech, or simply great comics. Profits go to Planned Parenthood."

What writers would you like to be involved in Ultimate DC, and what characters do you see them writing?

Ones I'd like to be involved are different from the ones I think will be involved. Or at least we're definitely not going to see the writers I'd want to get certain books actually get them. Here's my ideal lineup:

Ultimate Superman - Dan Watters & Rafa Sandoval. Watters can do brighter superhero fare, he did that with Jon for Future State, but I'd want him to lean into his horror/darker sensibilities here. Williamson is already delivering a solid "fun" Superman book, I want this one to get dark, to get political, to have something to say. Also want it to be more grounded than the mainline Superbooks. Sandoval I just adore as a Superman artist and want him to stick around.

Ultimate Batman - Jason Aaron & Doug Mahkne. My initial pick was Christopher Priest, but I reconsidered. Still would like to see Priest do a Batbook somewhere, but right now DC needs a solid Batman book that attracts excitement. Aaron and Mahkne are delivering exactly that with Off-World, it's just been lost in the sea of Batbooks DC churns out. Put 'em on this and let it be the anchor of the line.

Ultimate Wonder Woman - Kelly Thompson & Vasco Georgiev. Thompson wants to write WW and Georgiev is a Jimenez clone which fits Thompson's sensibilities as a writer. Maybe go for a lighter tone as a contrast with King.

Ultimate Authority - Si Spurrier & Montos. Gimmie the gritty dark superhero book about bastards popping other bastards heads.

Ultimate Shadowpact - Gene Yang & Xermancio. Normally DC's magic books are some of the darkest in the line, but I thought we could invert that for this incarnation. Yang doesn't do dark, but he could be the one to showcase the breadth and wonder of magic. Gene Yang has a lot of knowledge about magic and theology, plus he knows how to write team books. Xermancio is obviously a fantastic artist who is going to be the new Reis now that Reis has left DC, and he already drew JLD with Ram V.

Could easily cast more, but 5 ongoings is enough as a start. Hickman's new Ultimate Universe seems to be restricting itself to four, just like the original Ultimate Universe, I'd prefer if Scott Snyder's UU likewise restrained itself at first..

alright guys which one are you trusting with your life

Congrats to the ultimate winner of the Hot & Vintage Movie Men Tournament, Mr. Toshiro Mifune! May he live happily and well where the sun always shines, enjoying the glories of a battle hard fought.

A loving farewell to all of our previous contestants, who are now banished to the shadow realm and all its dark joys and whispered horrors—I hear there's a picnic on the village green today. If you want to remember the fallen heroes, you can find them all beneath the cut.

What happens next? I'll be taking a break of two weeks to rest from this and prep for the Hot & Vintage Ladies Tournament. I'll still be around but only minimally, posting a few last odes to the hot men before transitioning into a little early ladies content, just like I did with this last tournament. The submission form for the Hot & Vintage Ladies tournament will remain up for one more week (closing February 21st), so get your submissions in for that asap! Once the form closes, there will be one more week of break. The first round of the Hot & Vintage Ladies Tournament will be posted on February 29th, as Leap Year Day seems like a fitting allusion to leaping into these ladies' arms.

Thanks for being here! Enjoy the two weeks off, and send me some great propaganda.
