Take a look at Greg Rucka and Rick Burchett’s Colonial America comic

Greg Rucka has expressed a desire for at least two years to write a comic set in Colonial America, and judging from this blog entry, he’s getting his wish.

The two pages of art by Rucka’s former Batman collaborator Rick Burchett are labeled “Gowanus,” which I’m going to go out on a limb and guess is a reference to Brooklyn’s Gowanus neighborhood, site of the opening skirmish of the Battle of Long Island — the first major battle of the American Revolution.

Hopefully we’ll learn details about Gowanus (if that’s indeed what the comic is called) next month at Comic-Con.
