Brandon, Azzarello and Klein sign up with DOC SAVAGE

We’ve teased this creative team a few times here already, but now’s your chance to get a handful of artist Nic Klein’s final pages, penned by the writing team of Azzarello and Brandon.

The US government has offered Doc and his men a deal: run a secret mission in the war-ravaged, blockaded ruins of the Middle East, and they'll wipe the slate clean of the frame-up job that the Secretary of State ran on them. Doc Savage is nobody's errand boy – but if the mission involves saving the life of one of his former compatriots, he might just have to cut a deal with the men who set him up. Click below for a first look at the issue.

DOC SAVAGE #6 hits tomorrow.

Ivan Brandon and Brian Azzarello weigh in on DOC SAVAGE #6

We’ve seen a few stunning images of preview art from rising star Nic Klein. We’ve heard from Assistant Editor Chris Conroy. But what about the new co-writing team of Ivan Brandon and Brian Azzarello? Well, as promised, we touched base with both of them and managed to finagle a few more pieces of new art from their first issue. So, what say you, guys?

“Doc Savage is the godfather of genre fiction,” Brandon said. “His world is a place where literally any kind of story is possible. Trying to keep up with the level of sophistication and innovation that book breathed like fire even back in the 30s is an incredibly daunting task. It's probably the most fun I've had at work.”

Sign me up! Brian?

“It's been truly invigorating working with Ivan and Nic on Doc. I think fans won't just be surprised-- they'll be thrilled by this story. I know I am. This is the First Wave Universe living up to its potential.”

A sneak peek at DOC SAVAGE #6

We’ll be hearing from both Brian Azzarello and co-writer Ivan Brandon about what they’ve got in store for the Man of Bronze soon enough, but we’d be remiss if we didn’t tease some of the amazing artwork Nic Klein is cranking out. DOC SAVAGE #6, which hits next month, kicks off a new arc co-written by Azzarello and Brandon with Klein on art, making for an ideal jumping on point. Now make with the clicking below.
