More adventures in eBay!
Awesome put out the Glory #0 preview issue in March 1999. Shortly after that, Awesome laid off all their employees and most of the writers and artists left, including Brandon Peterson, who was the original artist for Glory. But Awesome still had four Glory scripts written by Moore.
Round about a year later, sometime in spring of 2000, they put out this ad (which I came across on eBay):
Rob Liefeld and company had gotten Art Thibert to agree to do the art for Glory and planned to put out Glory #1 around the same time as Supreme: The Return #5, which came out in May 2000.
For those of you who don't know Thibert, he was a fan-favorite inker who worked on X-Men titles during the pre-Image period. He also penciled for a while in a Jim Lee style, like this:
So, it could have been a good transition from what Brandon Peterson had done. But it never showed up.
Instead, in December 2001, Avatar put out Glory #1, not with Art Thibert, but with Marat Mychaels (who also had a comic featured on that ad that only showed up with a #0 comic con edition) doing the art.
