Good news from JMS last night!

[Jan]

Stay tuned... ETA: looks like it was the great news about the Library Journal and large print run of 'TOGETHER WE WILL GO'.

[Jan]

This is somewhat tantalizing.

And the deep question is:
"How far are the WB polite People?"

So - a couple of things tonight regarding licensing.

JMS said that it would be required for WB to contact him and the people making the show if anything were being done.


And when I asked about whether he could veto a license:



ETA: for Tom Smith/B5 Scrolls: You were right, as you pointed out in your PM this morning. I was wrong. But since we now have actual information, no I won't be disputing it in the future when you quote the answers to the questions I asked.

Can someone explain the nuances of this? All I get from reading JMS' rather vague twitter responses is "JMS can veto licensed stuff relating to B5, i.e. audio drama, novels, toys, merch, etc... However, he has no formal powers to veto new B5 / a remaster if WB wanted to do it".

Is that the correct reading here?

Message from JMS: News (non-B5) coming tomorrow (10/26)

One of JMS' very early credits (1989) was for 'The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is available on YouTube:

JMS said:

Oh, dear...hadn't known this. Parts of the writing are okay, other parts are dreadful and too on the nose or obvious...it's Laura Dern's first significant role and she did a great job...and somehow the credits managed to misspell Michael but got Straczynski right.

The same poster who let JMS know about the above said that much of Captain Power is available, also.
