Blackest Night: Titans #3 by George Perez


From the DC Comics The Source Blog:

If you’ve been reading BLACKEST NIGHT: TITANS (and there’s no reason to miss it, I say), then you know the once dearly-departed Terra plays a big role. So, it makes perfect sense to bring aboard writer/artist George Pérez to put pencil to paper for the cover to the mini’s final issue. Doubly cool? The artistic master plays homage to his own work, namely, the cover to NEW TEEN TITANS #30. But enough bluster. We caught up with BLACKEST NIGHT: TITANS editor Brian Cunningham to get more details on the cover, plus the cover itself (and its inspiration) below. Take it away, Brian:

“Who better to homage the cover to NEW TEEN TITANS (vol. 1) #30 than its original artist George Pérez? He even did a baby Black Lantern Wildebeest on the logo! And Hi-Fi Design knocked the coloring out of the park. You might see Pérez and Hi-Fi team up again on another Titans project in 2010. Stay tuned!”

BLACKEST NIGHT: TITANS #3 hits 10/28.





That's pretty cool.

    The original is iconic but the modern one gives the art new meaning.

    Doesn't it piss anyone else off that zombie Terra is every-so-slightly off centre in relation to Titans Tower?

    Probably not.

    Well Zombie Terra might be off by a hair to the center. But I think the Baby Zombie WildeBeest addition was abit overboard because WildeBeest die when he was fully grown. Just think of this as a cover to mock or jab the previously famous Perez cover. Nothing else to be taken seriously. After all he is the Godfather Perez....He can draw a pile of dog pooh and still make it look good!!
    I would still give it a thumb up for the entertainment value.
