Many of you may be familiar with Life of Reily (http://www.newcomicreviews.com/GHM/specials/LifeOfReilly/), a 35 chapter series about the creation of the clone saga (and the many many mistakes.)
I thought you guys would like to know that the author is writing another series, The Hype of Reilly (http://www.amishotaku.com/section.php?t=23), about his efforts to turn the Life of Reily into a book.
It's worth taking a look and I'm not just saying that because there's a shout out to me. :evilsmile

Sounds good. I'd definetly consider picking it up if they release Life of Reilly as a book.
I couldn't find any shout out to you though.

Hmm, the most recent part may not be included in the above links.

I also pretty much finished a shorter Q&A with Mark Bagley. Mark is in the unique position of having worked on two Clone Sagas and I wanted to get his thoughts on both stories. Honestly, I suck at interviewing artists and Bagley is another favorite of mine, but I was having problems coming up with some interesting yet intelligent questions to ask. Thomas Mets, a Spider-Man fan who posts on Brian Bendis’ Jinxworld.com, helped me a great deal by offering a bunch of things I could swing by Mark.:evilsmile

I only just read "The Life Of Reilly" throughout October last year. It was a bloody good read. I was reading it for like 3 hours everyday for a few days I'm glad to see that there's a new one up. I would truly love "The Life Of Reilly" to be published as a book as it most definitely has the potential.

I too would love to pick it up if the published a book, "Life of Reilly" was an incredible read and a cuationary tale about happens when sales over ride storytelling.
Spider-Man's internal politics have been as fun as the title at times. The Life of Reily has done it's fair share of helping fans understand the highs and lows of the Clone Saga better and the buisness as a whole. This book could be a great mainstream spearhead towards releasing a CS graphic novel and maybe even resurgence in the idea

I loved the life of Reilly so much that when I had to leave home, and my computer, I printed some pages to read on the road. I would really like to see it as a book.

Wow, that'd be a great idea. I'd definitely pick up a Life Of Reilly book. I thought it was a great read, especially the commentary throughout.

Wow, Cyberman, that's the first time in ages I'm glad to have read something you posted! ;-)
Life of Reilly was a neat little thing, and it made the Clone War less craptastic in retrospect to read the politics behind it and the what-could-have-been (Gaunt = Harry) I would have loved for this to be a book. Bet it won't ever be though.
Of course, the current crapstain that is Spidey makes me long for the Clone Wars, too.
Hell, it makes me long for ... what's the worst Spidey videogame I can think of? I didn't play the Gameboy one from way back that's notoriously bad, but the Japanese Deadly Foes was awful... X-men/Spidey in Arcade's Something or Other was craptastic for sure... hell with it, new thread!
