The Guardian Line

These find a time portal through an MP3 player. Through they are able to go back in time and, as Mr. McCarthy said, go back in the future as well.

What is the seeker about?

Oh, it's about 22 pages.  Just kidding.  Here's the copy that precedes every solicitation for THE SEEKERS in the Diamond catalog:

"Jesse Williams, boy genius, has been given a gift; a time machine housed in an unlikely place -- an mp3 player!  Together, Jesse, his sister Nila, and their friend Brooklyn are THE SEEKERS; young heroes who travel through time and space in search of adventure – and the truth behind the mysteries of the universe."

Have a look at the first page of THE SEEKERS #3, drawn by Tony Leonard Tamai:

Seekers sounds great. I love time-travel stories (Dr.Who, SuperBook)

Seekers has a lot of potential. I can't wait to see it. Do any of the Gaurdian books have a ComicSpace?

Code had a MySpace page for a little while, which has become, I think, a Guardian Line page.  But why go anyplace else?  You might not have Jesse Williams' mp3 player, but here you can revisit the past by asking about previous issues of THE SEEKERS, and peer into the future with previews and behind-the-scenes looks at upcoming issues.

Speaking of, here's a page from THE SEEKERS #3 that I posted earlier, now in color:

Are those the main characters?

Two of them, yes.

Mr. McCarthy,

Since you're on the thread, I want to give you props for a brave act in Seekers #2.  Only a few comics have commented on the genocide in Sudan's Darfur region, and such commentary is virtually non-existent in other media.  So, it took guts to use Steven Dark's operations to label the genocide for what it is:  an act of evil, period.

Social commentary in a "kids' book"?  This is another reason why Seekers has quickly become one of my favorite comics.

I notice that the characters look a little different than the previous issues. Is there a new artist on the series?

---

As I stated in an earlier post, Tony Leonard Tamai is the artist for THE SEEKERS #3.

I was lucky to have Shawn Martinbrough draw the first two issues of THE SEEKERS, but he's moved on to other projects including some of the WORLD WAR HULK event for Marvel Comics and his own HOW to DRAW NOIR COMICS: THE ART and TECHNIQUE of VISUAL STORYTELLING due in October from Watson-Guptill.

So will he be the artist for the rest of the series?

---

He will be the artist for THE SEEKERS #3.  Anything beyond that is probably still up in the air at this point, though I would love to see Tony Tamai become the regular artist on this series.

Here's another B&W preview:

Wow, i'm loving the artwork there. And commentary? I'm in. Reminds me of Dr. Who.  You think they'll ever do a Seekers/SuperBook cross-over?

As far as I know, there are no crossovers planned with characters outside of the Guardian Line anytime soon.

Ah, thats to bad. Seekers does look awesome though. I'll definetly have to check it out.
