How do you keep a bunch of John Byrne fan's in suspense?

I think the punchline on this is "He'll tell you tomorrow" but there's no indication that's going to happen.

The bad of this situation is that i am no eager to look in other non-JB comics to find it.  My collection this days are only stuff from essentials, JB´s comics and sometimes an FF or an Superman.

i certainly never would guess it.

And somewhere in the catacombs beneath Stately Byrne Manor, a distant laughter could be heard....

Hmmm... to tell or not...?

Here's a hint: JB loves playing with time - time travel, stories that flow forward and then jump backwards to fill you in on what got us here.

Find these somewhere and you may be on the right track...

No, I don't know. I'm just playing witchu.

This is probably a joke, but seriously I need to know, I probably (the jury's
still out) have some form of ADD, and definately have a major test that
will determine my graduation status tomarrow, I have enough trouble
concentrating as it is without worrying about the possibility that there's a
JB title I've been missing out on.

Okay, truthfully it probably won't affect me that much, but still, IT MIGHT,
IT MIGHT!!!

Hmmmm....

Still waiting for people to "notice"

"Notice"

Not ice

Fire

Firestorm?

 

That can't be it, it's been "more than a year"

Or can it, it's up to issue 11 and JB would have a few in the can already...

Hmmmmmmmm.....

Ya know, the one thing that really is itching at me is the term Ghostwriter -- which actually does mean to write in place of someone else under their name, not to use a Pseudonym. I know there have been instances of artists Ghost um . . Drawing for others, and an instance here and there of Ghostwriting (most recentally, the whole Morrison/Millar authority hoo-ha), so I wonder if all of our process of elimination is pointless and JB really is writing in a true Ghost fashion, and if so, if he CAN even let us know who/where.

I think the quote was "Hey, I've been writing one DC book under a pen name..."  Which, if I recall, isn't quite the same thing as being a ghostwriter.  I think JB's just having a little fun with us, and he's really referring to Doom Patrol.

Maybe John Byrne is a Pen Name for "Lord Rushton"?

All this silly guessing.  It's obvious that JB is Peter David (and vice-versa).

(That should start JB's day with either a chuckle or a scream)
