Which indie creator will be a household name by the end of '04?
Brian Wood checks out of his design job at Rockstar Games to pursue a full-time career in comics - which means 2004 will bring more urban revolutionaries and gun-wielding bike messengers sticking it to the man with fiery rhetoric, hot lead, and breakneck action sequences.
An innovative storyteller, Wood's tales suck you in with intense action and leave you with a profound message to chew on as you gasp for air when it's all over. Between the 12-issue Demo series from AiT/Planet Lar (#3 hits in January), where Wood shows what kids with superpowers would do in the real world (they're not going to throw on tights!) and his graphic novel The Couriers 02: Dirtbike Manifesto (also in Janurary from AiT/Planet Lar), where he teams with artist Rob G for another installment of John Woo-style action mayhem, Wood's name will soon be on a par with those of Brian Michael Bendis and Brian K. Vaughan!
