Poster Mystery.
There are a bunch of sites out there showing this as the new poster for the movie adaptation of Whiteout.
It looks like the poster story broke wide a couple of days ago at Beyond Hollywood, who got it from "eagle-eyed reader Don." But it's been on the net a while. The first place I ran into it was this message board. A poster named Hunter put it up back in September, and another poster, Batista, commented that he "saw it ages ago before the comic con one," and that he thought he read it was fan made. Greg Rucka posted it on his LJ in October.
While it certainly looks professional, as far as either of us know, it's fan-made. Which is not to say it isn't the real thing. Greg's a producer on the movie but that doesn't mean they run everything by him, and I only get little bits of news here and there, so I've got nothing to share. So until the poster's designer comes forward, we've got a mystery here.
In other Whiteout news, I'm told the remastered, definitive editions are doing doing really well in stores. (I certainly signed a ton of them this weekend in Mid-Ohio.) Here are a few notices folks have forwarded to me:
Kimberly Reads Comics | Comics Alliance| Reading Furnace | Indie Pulp | Opiate of the Masses | Great Ceasar's Ghost
Previews of both Whiteout and Whiteout:Melt at comicspace.
