It was a good night for sketches, too, as Phil Jimenez posted a Wonder Woman piece he made, and Cameron Stewart gave Batman a go using an iPad. Gaze upon their art and learn a thing or two about being British from Warren Ellis after the jump.

DC trailer pt. 1: @JMDeMatteis I thought the DCU was a place filled with hope. The New 52 commercial makes the entire universe seem like Gotham City on a very bad day.

-J.M. DeMatteis, Writer ("Justice League International," "Amazing Spider-Man")

DC trailer pt. 2: @MarkAndrewSmith This DC Comics 52 Trailer could be great if they advertise comics in the movie theater and on Television.

-Mark Andrew Smith, Writer ("The Amazing Joy Buzzards," "New Brighton Archeological Society")

DC trailer pt. 3: @GailSimone @jimlee00 @Comixace The trailer is cool, but it could have used more cursing.

-Gail Simone, Writer ("Birds of Prey," "Wonder Woman")

@TedNaifeh Getting ready to que up HP5 with shouty Harry. But he's nowhere near as shouty as Dumbledore in HP4. Kept expecting him to slap the kids.

-Ted Naifeh, Writer/Artist ("Polly and the Pirates," "How Loathsome")

@Philjimeneznyc I just did a very quick sketch of Wonder Woman in her new costume. I hope @cliffchiang approves! pic.twitter.com/8i7HNLB

@andydiggle Bought my son some Alien Conquest LEGO yesterday. I might even let him play with it at some point. Once I'm done with it.

@warrenellis Englishness is not a nationalist thing. It is instead an acquired condition, in which all can share. Not unlike dysentery.

-Warren Ellis, Writer ("Planetary," "Transmetropolitan")
