Originally published in 2004, the 12-issue series SOLO gave some of comics' greatest creators the chance to create stories set in the DC Universe and beyond. Each issue featured one artist, including Tim Sale (BATMAN: THE LONG HALLOWEEN), Paul Pope (BATMAN YEAR ONE HUNDRED), Darwyn Cooke (DC: THE NEW FRONTIER, BEFORE WATCHMEN: MINUTEMEN) and many others. Stories star Batman, Robin, Superman, The Spectre, The Teen Titans and many others, but also include westerns, war stories, science fiction epics, humor and horror, as well as introspective tales from the creators' own lives.… (más)
So DC Comics got innovative for a change, and invited various highly-respected writer/artists to submit one-shot graphic stories, some of which feature established DC characters, some not. It's a sumptuous collection of stories, a few excellent, most very good, one or two clunkers. The artists I'm familiar with include Tim Sale, Richard Corben, Howard Chaykin, Darwyn Cooke, and (pleasant shock) Sergio Aragones. There are several others whose names I didn't know, most of them quite good. Tim Sale and Darwyn Cooke are my favorites here, but Sergio Aragones is a real hoot. The genres include Super-heroes, Horror, Romance, Suspense, Western, and probably just about any other genre that the comic book medium has treated. Quite a fascinating compilation. ( )
Like most people I think the collection overall was fairly impressive although somewhat inconsistent. I think the work would have benefited from some kind of overarching theme to tie it all together. I hope they give this idea another shot. I was very excited to see a couple of my favorite artists and to see a couple of artists from Spain. ( )
