Bagley Moving Over To DC Comics
Longtime Spider-Man artist Mark Bagley, the man who created and drew Ultimate Spider-Man for over 100 issues, has announced that he's leaving Marvel Comics and will instead be setting up shop in the polar opposite camp of DC.
Newsarama has learned that long-time Marvel penciler Mark Bagley, whose current exclusive contract with the publisher reportedly expires at the end of this year, will move to DC Comics to take on an undisclosed high-profile project likely sometime in 2008.Bagley’s name has been synonymous with Marvel Comics since the literal start of his career, going back to 1986. At the time, the then aspiring 27-year old artist submitted an entry to Marvel Editor-in-Chief Jim Shooter’s Marvel Try-Out Book, winning the penciling entry, which led to his first professional assignments with the publisher.
To say that I'm curious about what Bagley moves on to is an understatement, but I'm pretty certain that whatever he ends up working on will be fantastic. Personally, I'd like to see him start up a new series, like he did with both The New Warriors and Thunderbolts, but it looks like it'll be a little while before we find out any details.
