Bryan Hitch’s Got Powers

David Tennant as a comic evil mastermind? That’s how Bryan Hitch is drawing him, according to The Sun.

Written by Jonathan Ross, the premise of the story is: “His character is kind of the mastermind behind a brutal reality show where kids with super powers slug it out to join the only Government-sanctioned super team.”

Sounds like a great premise, don’t you think? And since Bryan Hitch drew Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, maybe we’ll see David Tennant on the big screen playing…himself, sort of?

Mind boggling.

And if you want to learn a thing or three from Bryan, pick up a copy of Bryan Hitch’s Ultimate Comics Studio from our store.
