The Fighting American is on it's way to Dynamite Entertainment.

Below is a story on CBR's homepage, and this is something I'm REALLY excited about! I know this classic character has roots back to the 50's but I first got into him when he was being published by Awesome Entertainment back in the late 90's and totally fell in love with the character only to see him fade back into obscurity, but thanks to Dynamite The Fighting American is back! Yes!

That article is from three years ago. Did it ever happen? Or is it still happening?

Not sure, lol. I got it from the official forums to be honest.

It didn't happen. The Kirby estate said yes but the Simon estate said no.

Edit: read it, saw it was from 2009.

As much as I loved what Simon and Kirby did, back in 1954 with the FA series, I REALLY hated the mini series dc but out in the early 90s.I think that there are VERY few tallents out there who could even begin to capture half what Joe and Jack did. Steve Rude perhaps.Anyway,I cant't help but feel, that any atempt at a revival, will be a shadow's shadow of the original.

I totally agree. It would be difficult to find the right creators to do FA justice. I am happy Dynamite did not get the license. I have been very unhappy the way they treat their books. Buy a license. Print a mini series. Then you never see that character again. Meanwhile no other publisher can publish new material with that character because Dynamite still has the rights tied up.

How do you find an article from 2009 and not realize it's from 2009?
