Rolston replaces Bond as Escapist artist

From Steve Rolston's blog:

The word's out... I'm replacing Philip Bond as the artist on Brian K. Vaughan's ongoing story in Michael Chabon Presents: The Amazing Adventures of the Escapist!

As reported at The Amazing Website of Kavalier & Clay, the story entitled 'The Escapists' will debut in November's issue #8 of the Harvey and Eisner award winning anthology from Dark Horse Comics. Due to scheduling problems, that will be Bond's first and last issue. I take over in issue #9, which will be out in January.

I'm extremely happy to be on board this project. I've wanted to work with Brian for a while and this story suits me perfectly. Philip Bond has been a pretty big influence on me artistically, so it's been fun working from his designs. And I sure as hell can't complain about being coloured by Dave Stewart! 'The Escapists' also has some comic-within-a-comic sequences which are being illustrated by Jason Shawn Alexander and coloured by Matt Hollingsworth. There's so many great people involved, it's crazy.
