Scott Dunbier Returns to DC for José Luis García-López Artist's Edition

Well, this is a curveball! Scott Dunbier, the visionary behind IDW's game-changing Artist's Edition format, is returning to DC Comics for a major project. Yes, the same DC that reportedly fired him years ago. Now, he's curating the José Luis García-López's DC Classics Artist's Edition, a move that’s certainly raising eyebrows and excitement.
García-López is a legend. His clean lines and dynamic compositions defined the visual language of the DC Universe for generations, especially through the iconic DC Comics Style Guide. This prestige, oversized hardcover is a monumental tribute. It features 240 pages scanned directly from original art, capturing every blue pencil mark and white-out correction. We're talking 12 by 17 inches of pure art, spanning his extraordinary career.
Expect seven complete stories, alongside a curated selection of covers and rare pieces. Highlights include classic Batman, Superman, Jonah Hex, and iconic Style Guide pages. It's an intimate look at a master's process.
