BACK ISSUE #39...

Above: Cover to BACK ISSUE #39 by Mike Wieringo and Karl Kesel.

Above is the cover to BACK ISSUE #39, which should be out in March 2010. The mag includes my Forbush-Man article. For more on BACK ISSUE magazine, stop by TwoMorrow Publishing’s website.

BACK ISSUE editor, Michael Eury, gives the skinny on the cover:

Presenting, the cover to BACK ISSUE #39 (shipping mid-March 2010), our "April Fools" issue, starring Spider-Ham by Mike Wieringo and Karl Kesel.

Mike Wieringo penciled this as a Heroes Con sketch (with a black-costumed Spider-Ham) back in 2007. Karl Kesel recently inked it, altering Spidey's suit to the traditional red-and-blue. And Glenn Whitmore's colors are dazzling, aren't they?

We're honored to remind readers of the sorely missed Mike Wieringo with this one.

Special thanks go out to our designer, Rich Fowlks, who located this piece of art and suggested the April Fools theme.
