Reminder: will be at Image Expo in San Francisco on Tuesday to announce new slate of Joe's Comics books for 2014.

5:00 A Conversation with J. Michael Straczynski

Writer for television, comics and film, as well as being a novelist and proprietor of his own comics imprint Joe’s Comics, J. Michael Straczynski has shown that his creative talents cross media boundaries. Now, with Ten Grand, Sidekick, and other to-be-announced titles being released, he’s become part of What’s Next at Image.

It's not a great picture but my feeling is that the slide on the screen in this photo is from Dream Police.

I've been SO hoping that both Lost Souls and Dream Police would be returning!

The project with Bill Sienkiewicz is definitely of interest to me. He’s always been one for breaking a lot of rules and pushing the visual language of comics in new directions. I just hope that with so many irons in the fire, that the quality of writing stays consistent. I do wonder if other writers will come on board for certain projects further on down the line.
