Nah, he's VEI's dungeon-keeper. He locks up all the exclusive talent in his basement. Dysart aids him in his endeavors now. Being in captivity the longest of any of them, he's a victim of Stockholm syndrome.

As far as the :breakingnews: ... wasn't there someone else who was with VH1 originally, who was having dinner or drinks with Dinesh and co in the last few months.... :hm:

Although personally, I think Bob Hall continuing with VH1 shadowman starting at issue 44 would be amazing. :cloud9:

I think that's been LightningStrike's strategy. Dude's post count hit 8008 and he hasn't posted since. I just checked, and that was back in March! :o

That would be supremely awesome if Bob Layton came to VEI... He recently asked for input on his Facebook page about what to pursue after he had finished up doing GK3 covers for Dynamite. Myself & a number of others suggested VEI, I hope that helped to encourage him as well!

The content of that article was great. Grammatically, it needs a better editor.

I have it from a reliable source that he's been known to hog the photo copier. So what do you think of him now?

I wonder if he's becoming exclusive (minus his creator-owned book for DH). Not that I would expect him to sell that as the big news.
