Other than “Wednesday Comics,” “Astro City” and the stuff I can’t announce? Sure. I’ve got a few finishing touches to put on “Marvels: Eye of the Camera,” and I’m working on a sequel to “Arrowsmith,” which will be a prose novel called “Arrowsmith: Far From The Fields We Know.” Carlos Pacheco will be doing lots of illustrations for it. Between those and the unnamed projects, I’ll be staying pretty busy. But after I take my family on vacation next month.

It's a shame that the plug on Gorilla Comics was pulled before the group ever got off the ground. Besides TELLOS, I remember being very excited for the Kesel/Grummett book...the name escapes me right now.

I've had Shockrockets setting on my shelf for a couple of years now - I must get around to reading it.

Augie also mentioned the SUPERSTAR 1-shot that was damn cool! I was hoping for more of that too...
