JB, is there any historical period you haven't had the chance to illustrate, but which you are still hoping shows up on your drawing board some day?

Yup. Minus the black gutters/borders. Like ASSIGNMENT: EARTH and the
ROMULANS books, I am adding those in Photoshop.

Hm! Off the top of my head, I can recall having been to both World Wars,
the Old West, ancient Rome, Egypt and Greece, Colonial America, Georgian
England, Elizabethan England, the 1920s and several epochs of the Future
(near and far). That about covers my interests!
(Just finished reading a biography of Elizabeth I, and as I was reading I kept
thinking it would be amusing to use that as the framework for a STAR WARS
kind of tale. Substitute planets for kingdoms and spaceships for horses.)

At least you'll know who to blame if it all goes, to use a phrase, tits up.
This comic just gets more and more interesting. And now, of course, you have licked the problem of the colourist not 'getting' what you had in mind.
