DC Comics has cancelled the publication of several previously-announced trade paperbacks, including DOOM PATROL: FIRE AWAY. I have no information on why or whether it will be rescheduled, because I found out from the internet.
Speaking of the internet, Kasey Lansdale and Damien Maffei created an official Twitter account and Facebook page for the forthcoming CASTAWAYS movie. Please Follow and Like if you are so inclined.
I was working on CLICKERS VS. ZOMBIES yesterday when the earthquake occurred. Turtle was upstairs taking his afternoon nap. The house didn’t shake, but it creaked. I thought the sound was footsteps. Assuming he was awake, I went upstairs only to find him sitting up in bed looking scared and dazed. He hadn’t gotten out of bed. Given my vocation, I immediately decided that what I’d heard was a ghost, and my new house was haunted, and the ghostly footsteps woke him up. It wasn’t until my ex-wife got here a few minutes later (as per our extended family’s National Disaster Emergency Plan) that I found out it had been an earthquake.

Great news on the Castaways movie! Can’t wait to see it.
I was in a cemetery with my girls visiting my grandfathers tomb. when the earthquake happened. We felt nothing. When I came home I noticed that my desk in my office (Which is on those plastic moving things you see on the infomercials). moved about 8 inches away from the wall and some pictures on the walls were a little off center. It was not until my wife called that I was informed of the earthquake. Anyway, Good to hear that Castaways is going to be film. Now I must prepare for the Hurricane, just hope no clickers and dark ones follow.
I was in the kitchen where I work, in Va., when it started shaking causing some pots and pans to fall off their hooks and onto the floor. All the Hispanic cooks bolted past me and out the back door. One guy stayed inside, a NYC native, who said, “I grew up next to subway tracks….this is not ‘shaking’, this is ‘nothing’.”
Thanks for the “Castaways” update. That was a great, fun story. (and short story, too)
