Nextwave, Warren Ellis' new Marvel book, looks *cool*

Nextwave #1 cover

Warren Ellis, writer of such awesome series as Transmetropolitan, The Authority, Planetary and Global Frequency and lately, Ultimate Fantastic Four, is writing a new book for Marvel. It's described best by the man himself on his blog as "A Marvel comic about pirate superheroes on an American jihad against terrorist product-testing, by Warren Ellis and Stuart Immonen." He reveals more info about the series in an interview with comics news site Newsarama.

You can find a larger version of the issue 1 cover, a poster as well as character art and info here. The poster, apparently unused, is rather brilliant. This is one to watch out for, people.
