Stuff to Watch For: DC's New Frontier Special

I'm embarrassed to admit that I haven't read Darwyn Cooke's New Frontier yet. By the time I decided I wanted it (after seeing Cooke's awesome stuff on The Spirit), the Absolute Edition had been announced and I've been saving up for that.

That doesn't mean that the news about a New Frontier Special isn't just as exciting to me though. Especially considering that Black Canary will be involved this time. Says Cooke, "J. Bone and I are tackling Wonder Woman, Black Canary and old school chauvinism in an New Frontier parody along the lines of the old Kurtzman/Wood Mad satires."

Also included will be a Superman/Batman fight that's "going to kick the hell out of those two," and a Robin/Kid Flash story that pits them against "Red saboteurs." Sounds good to me.
