Frank Miller has a NTY best-seller, showed up at the premiere of #BrandNewDay, and today has a documentary arriving on digital. I got him on a range of subjects, from watching THE ODYSSEY to arguing with Jim Shooter to handling fame (or not) in the 1980s. Some Frank talk: hollywoodreporter.com/movies…

On top of leaving NYC and moving to Burbank, there's a changing of the guard at the top: veteran comics editor Stephen Wacker has been named editor-in-chief, replacing C.B. Cebulski, who has led the comic company since 2017.
Excl: Marvel Comics shocker...After calling the Big Apple home for almost 90 years, Marvel is moving out of New York City...and heading to Hollywood...as part of major overhaul that includes a new editor-in-chief. hollywoodreporter.com/busine…

Story: Reclusive (and polarizing) creator JOHN BYRNE, who helped make X-Men into Marvel's biggest comic in the 1980s, returns to the heroes that made him famous with X-MEN: ELSEWHEN, his new and possibly final comics project. He also expounds on his worst comic experience (DC's SUPERMAN) and Marvel movies: "I'm not Alan Moore. I'll take the money." hollywoodreporter.com/movies…

...perhaps one the nerdiest stories we've ever done at Heat Vision: a deep dive into the comic industry as we take a look at a new & seismic trend...the return of the comic artist as superstar. Fun fact: it's tied to the Absolute comics. view.email.hollywoodreporter…

Some adults worry that graphic novels and comics “don’t count” as reading. But children reading them are practicing exactly what strong readers do: Following narrative structure. Interpreting visual information. Connecting dialogue and context. Comprehension is on every page.
