Brandon Jerwa talks "Inferno" with Newsarama

Trautmann and Jerwa on "The Shield" and "Inferno" - Pop Culture Zoo

The time has finally come! I'm working in the DC Universe! Eric Trautmann and I are teamed up once again for "The Shield" and "Inferno." Eric's writing the patriotic title character, while I'm handling the incendiary co-feature. Our heroes are a major part of the integration of the Red Circle characters into the DCU, picking up the threads after J. Michael Straczynski's initial launch of the characters in a series of 4 one-shots debuting this August. Our ongoing series will debut in September.

In convention news, I will be attending San Diego Comic-Con and have just been confirmed as a guest for Emerald City Comicon 2010.

More great news to come...VERY SOON!

It’s been a pretty crazy time over here in Brandon-land. Since my last update, I’ve made appearances at the Highlander Worldwide convention in L.A., and the Spokane Comic-Con here in Washington. I’ve also been hard at work writing a few different as-yet-unannounced Secret Projects. Oh, and did I mention that Eric Trautmann and I launched a preview of our new free online comic series, WIDE AWAKE?

Like I said: crazy times. “Be careful what you wish for,” isn’t that how the saying goes? I’m here to tell you that it’s true, folks…and I’m loving every minute of it!

Hey, kids! I'll be at the ECCC this weekend. Look for me sitting with / around Greg Rucka, Jen Van Meter, Eric Trautmann and Joshua Ortega.

And here's a "Wide Awake" teaser image!

As we prepare for the launch of the WIDE AWAKE webcomic, I'll be sharing various production and promotional art pieces. This particular image is from regular series artist Mirco Pierfederici and features our lead character Amanda Carter in a tastefully vulnerable state. May be NSFW for mild artistic nudity.

(The webcomic will be PG-13 most of the time, FYI.)

This fantastically in-depth interview is very different from the press I've been doing of late. You won't catch me talking about how awesome my book-of-the-week is, but you might just gain some insight into who I am and where I come from. If you're into that...
