I was in our local library today, gathering research materials for a historical graphic novel I've been asked to pitch, when Miss Jessica walked over with a familiar book in her hand.

She had been perusing the surprisingly ample (if not slightly dog-eared) trade paperback section with Orion when she found one of my G.I. Joe trades on the shelf.

I have to say, it felt nice. I realize it's probably old hat to most of the pros who might be reading this, but it was a cherry-popping moment for me.

In other news, I have this recurring feeling that a super-hero project is going to come my way very soon. It's probably just wishful thinking, but it's a sensation I just can't seem to shake.
