I can't wait for this interview to go live. It should give us the next big rush of news on what Shooter's up to at Dark Horse.

I figured everyone else was going to ask the Gold Key/Valiant type questions, so I'd go in a different direction..

Any chance we might see any other GK characters like Dr. Spektor, Brain Boy, Prof. Harbinger, etc?

Jim, whats the score with those guys at VEI?
Are they actually running a business or are they taking the *SQUEE*?
Draco the Undead, Land of the Undead funnily enough.

When I asked you to help me invent an Urban Legend, I didn't mean literally!

Disney's doing feminine hygiene now?

Will the Dark Horse/Gold Key universe be closed? or will there be the possibility of introducing any of your creator owned characters into this new universe?

Since I doubt either of those will be seriously considered, here's another question that hopefully fishes for that information:

Q: I really enjoyed the new stories you did for the Harbinger and Archer & Armstrong hardcovers. Does this deal with Dark Horse prevent any future collaboration with Valiant Entertainment, Inc.?

Greg,
Do you know when and where this interview will be published?
Thanks.

The questions here are only for Jim, you'll have to start your own thread to ask greg questions!

Since Greg is organizing this board portion, I would say 'no, Greg has no idea whatsoever. He is just posting away, la-dee da... without a goal or direction.'

Better question: "Greg, when and where this interview will be published?
Thanks."

Depending on how quickly Jim is able to answer the questions,
my guess is that the interview will be in the next SCOOP! newsletter
(or the one after that). They are released weekly on Fridays.

I was traveling, so J.C. Vaughn checked the posts here and compiled the list of questions.
I haven't seen the list yet, but I assume he may have also included questions of his own.
(I don't think we had 20 different questions here.)

Here's a link that always points to the most current issue:

Thanks for the link, Greg. I'll be keeping my eye out for the answers.
