Chris Roberson Ships Every Character, Talks Edison Rex #12

Last week’s release of Edison Rex #12 brought the series’ second trade paperback’s worth of stories to a close on a somewhat ominous note, but that didn’t keep the tone from being roughly as light as ever for most of the issue.Especially the cover–which is an homage to the Marvel 25th Anniversary covers from 1986, which featured the title character of a book in a large panel framed by other popular Marvel heroes. Here, we’ve got Edison surrounded by the other heroes and villains of his universe.What’s next for our hero? And how smart is the world’s smartest man, really, when he’s got people plotting against him right and left this month? If you don’t already have a copy, go buy one and read along with co-creators Chris Roberson and Dennis Culver as we discuss the issue…ComicBook.com: So what made you guys decide to do that Marvel homage cover? It’s glorious.Chris Roberson: That was a Dennis suggestion, but one I agreed to immediately and enthusiastically!Dennis Culver: Thanks! I’m selling it as a print here, along with a few other Rex related prints.ComicBook.com: Is it just me or is that Teenpeace logo very similar to one the Titans have used before? If intentional, well done on John Hill.
