COMIC BOOK RESOURCES interviews Scott Ian about LOBO: HIGHWAY TO HELL
November 3, 2009
No stranger to crossing over from one audience to another, Anthrax founder and guitarist Scott Ian has made a career of bridging musical genres and multiple media. Not only did the thrash metal giants Anthrax famously collaborate with rap icons Public Enemy on a smash hit remake of "Bring the Noise" in the early 1990s, Ian and his bandmates have also appeared on television shows ranging from "Married... with Children" and "WWE Raw" to "Cheers" and "Ask Dr. Ruth" and Ian himself also had a cameo in the cult classic "Run Ronnie Run."
In perhaps his biggest challenge yet, the long-time comic book fan unleashes his first foray into comics this week with the release of "Lobo: Highway to Hell" #1 by DC Comics.
The two-part series, featuring art by industry legend Sam Kieth, is delivered in prestige format with each issue numbering a whopping 64 pages. DC's blog, The Source, previewed art from the series today. Inspired by modern day stories like "Walking Dead," "Blackest Night" and "Y: The Last Man," Ian is matching the Main Man up against the Dark Prince. That's right, not the Dark Knight, the Dark Prince. You know, Satan.
