I obviously haven't been posting here much lately. What can I say, it's been a busy couple months. But now my runs on WOLVERINE and PUNISHERMAX are both wrapped, and SCALPED is almost there as well. And I'll soon be done with my work on AVENGERS VS. X-MEN. After that, I'll be down to just INCREDIBLE HULK and WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN. At least for a while. But I can't say anything more about that.
I hope to start writing here more in the coming weeks. Since my CBR column wrapped up last year, I haven't had a place to pour my thoughts, what few there are. So in other words expect some rants about football and hillbilly music in the very near future.
One thing I have been doing a lot of lately is running my mouth in front of cameras. I sat down with the MTV cameras at C2E2 to talk about AvX for their ongoing behind-the-scenes series called "War Journals." And more recently, a crew came out to my house and filmed me in my office, babbling about comics and showing off my wife's skull collection, and even followed me to the comic store and to Oklahoma Joes BBQ. It was definitely as close as I'll ever come to having my own reality show.
Thank God for that.

Marvel biz & momofuku
Our latest Marvel creative retreat was this week, where a bunch of us writers come to New York and sit in a room with our editors and publishers, and for three days straight we all talk comics and make fun of each other. While I can't tell you exactly what was talked about, I can say with confidence that this retreat was more jam-packed with awesome ideas than any retreat I've ever been to. I always come home from these things fired up to get back to work. After this one, even more-so.
Among the things I'm working on right now are AVENGERS VS. X-MEN and its tie-ins issues of WOLVERINE & THE X-MEN. I'm happy with the momentum we've all got going on X-MEN right now, so trust me, I'm very conscious about trying to maintain that during the tie-in months. Our story will not suddenly stop and be replaced but a bunch of crossover stuff that has no connection to what I was doing before. It will all flow together, including in some ways you might not be expecting.
As always, thanks for reading.
The other big highlight of the week for me was dinner at David Chang's momofuku ssäm, where thanks to C.B. Cebulski, a bunch of us gorged on a ridiculous spread of duck, steak, fish, pork buns and spicy sausage. Over dinner I told Remender and Hickman why I think Session 9 is awesome and Christopher Nolan not so much. I also extolled the virtues of Exorcist III but I'm not sure I won them over quite like the pork buns did.
David Chang, I think I love you.

Thoughts on the end of 2011

It's been a busy year for me. For which I am exceedingly grateful. Children, as you may have heard, are very expensive. As are the exotic murder safaris I sometimes go on to relax (we all have our vices, do we not?). As we enter 2012, I find myself in a period of transition. I wrote a little about this yesterday in my final column for CBR. But to to sum it up, three of my current writing gigs will be coming to an end in 2012. PUNISHERMAX and SCALPED are both ending (by my choice, not because they've been cancelled), and I'm wrapping up my run on WOLVERINE after about 50 issues spread across 10 years. So 2012 will be about charging ahead with my two newest series, WOLVERINE & THE X-MEN and THE INCREDIBLE HULK, and eventually taking on a few new challenges as well.
As you may have heard, one of those new challenges will be this:
I expect you'll be hearing even more and more about that one in the coming months. Suffice to say, it's the biggest, boldest thing I've ever been involved in, and man, is it going to be fun.
Beyond that, we'll just have to wait and see, I guess. Perhaps I'll even try to post here again with some regularity, now that I don't have a column to write.
Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks to everybody out there who read and supported my work this past year. I appreciate every last damn one of you. And for my part, hopefully the best is still yet to come.
Happy New Year.
