Rumor (rumour if I pretend to be Claremont) has it that
Steve Gerber and Val Mayerik will be working for the Marvel
Comics people once more. For anyone who does not know, these
are the two who created Howard the Duck. I don't remember the
title or character for this series, buyt it seems that
this will premiere as a Graphic Novel sometime around the end
of 1983, and be followed with a regular series published by
the EPIC Comics Group.
On a similar note, am I the only one dying of anticipation
for the next Graphic Novel? The next one is supposed to be
the conclusion to the Killraven story that ran in Amazing Adventures
back in the early seventies. The author is Don McGregor, and
the artist is P. Craig Russell. This should be a masterpiece.
On another similar note, did anyone see a graphic novel/
trade paperback published about five years ago called Detectives,
Inc. This is by Don Mc Gregor, and Marshall Rogers, and one
of the finest comics stories I have ever read.
Now, that is a strong statement, if ever I heard one.
The critics were very split on this particular story. I (emphasis
on I) liked it. Give it a try, if you can find it.
I am
GINO!
P.S. If this sounds much like an article already posted,
this is because the article did not show up in my reading of
the news. Maybe it got lost. I dunno.
