JMS at SDCC 2023

[Jan]

Seems like a good time to start a thread on all of the various things JMS has been mentioning talking about at SDCC this year (July 19-23, long sold out already). These are some of the things that may be revealed there:

- Babylon 5-A - This is the *completed* B5 project that JMS has mentioned a number of times both on Twitter and on Patreon. It's NOT the reimagining. So far it's unknown what format or venue it will be released on but that should be what we find out at SDCC. JMS has said that it will feature all of the remaining main cast (which in TV-speak generally means folks who were in the main titles).

- 30th Anniversary "something special" - I can't really tell from the wording if this might be the same as B5-A or not?



- Audio Dramas - JMS has mentioned writing to audio dramas, one anthology-style, for a major player. We hope to learn about distribution at SDCC.

- A secret multi-issue project for Marvel Comics.

- At least one more project for AWA where he's been doing the Reborns series.

- "The Glass Box" - a non-genre novel that I believe is due out this fall.

- "The Flickering Light" feature film slated to go to camera this summer.

- All the latest on the Harlan and Susan Ellison publishing and museum news.

And it feels like I'm missing something but now the thread is here I can add to it at will. Stay tuned...

Oh - and yes, your Intrepid Reporter will definitely be there!

Definitely interested to hear more about the Flickering Light and who is directing. Subject matter is definitely interesting and one of the few new things he's mentioned in the past that I'm genuinely stoked for.

So much fun to speculate on who might be in the Secret Project. Talia? Marcus? Ivanova and Lochley on screen together?
Looking forward to the audio dramas as have too many Audible Credits piling up.

Perhaps there eventually might be a Virtual/Online tour of the museum for those of us who live on the boring Eastern Seaboard.
?? Question for the Intrepid Reporter to ask ??

And the cool thing about B5's initial release is there are technically TWO "anniversaries" - 30th of the Pilot is this year and 30th of S1E1 is next year. Hopefully next year's anniversary will herald the re-imaging going forward.

You can be sure that Your Intrepid Reporter will be sure to ask that either in person or online as the opening gets closer!

JMS on Twitter the other night. Now, given that I've seen the Riverdancing Zombies, the Lost Tales panel, the Wonder Woman Players....This should be GOOD! AND!! I'll have a couple of other Intrepid Reporters with me!!
