*We Love Defiant Comics! Add the Defiant Comics Fanzine 2020 is a love letter to the amazing creators and the fantastic issues from that era.
When Jim Shooter left Valiant and formed Defiant Comics, he pooled together a team of talented storytellers like no other. Though short lived, Defiant has had a lasting effect on the comics world as well as its fans.
Comic fan and writer Mark F Davis has been a Defiant fan from the beginning! His dedication to collecting "all things Defiant" led him to the idea to create a fanzine dedicated to the memory of that era in comics. Along with Lucky Comics publisher John Michael Helmer and Defiant Comics veteran JC Vaughn, they collaborated with materials, resources, and ideas to create the very first Defiant Fanzine!
With eleven (11) interviews from those who were there at the time and unique pictures, the Defiant Fanzine 2020 is a fantastic record of how Defiant Comics worked and who worked there. Join Jim Shooter, JC Vaughn, Janet Jackson and many others as they tell their tales of the History of Defiant Comics! *Source: kickstarter.com
The inside front cover notes Cover A is Rivera & Regalado, Cover B is Shooter's logo, and Cover C is Rivera & Montgomery, however, the Kickstarter sold these as Cover A being Shooter's logo and Cover B being Rivera & Regalado. Production Editor John Michael Helmer noted the following:
"Cover C was not released to the public for pledging. It was designed for the who pledger purchased the Luis River original cover art. When the original cover art became unavailable, Luis drew the pledger this reward. So, if I remember, only 2 were made: the pledger and the proof copy--which was given the Alan Weiss.
As for the A & B mix-up, yes this is an editorial error. A is the tower & B is Luis River art. Somehow, the error just got past us in production."
While the Kickstarter intended for the cover listing to be switched, CCL is following the checklist in the book for the two main cover. The other is, essentially, a two print run that will not be included in the listings.
