QUOTATIONS

One thing I can say about Geoff (Johns) and myself, with absolute certainty is that we never look at the stories and say, 'What's it gonna do for me?' The job is what are we doing for these characters? That's the job. And not to make it sound hokey, but you're given the privilege, and it's a privilege to write Superman.

RECENT HEADLINES

March 07 | Briefly
Yes, I've fallen far behind on updating the site. (Not nearly as behind as this page would show, but behind nonetheless.) "Real life" -- such that it is -- seems to have interfered once again.

I did make some minor changes this evening and will be adding a new batch of comics within the next few days (to a week).

One new item feature is that the individual listing will now note whether or not the comic is aproved by the Comics Code Authority. Currently, every comic on the site is listed as being Code approved, but this will be fixed shortly.

I've decided to, temporarily, put the character indexing aside. Indexing of the comics themselves will continue, and I hope to one day return to the character indexing when my hours spent at my paying job slack off some.

This is shaping up to be a fantastic year for Superman fans! DVDs of nearly every Superman-on-film incarnation, comics, merchandise and toys galore, oh... and something about a movie coming in June. Be sure to stop over at the Superman Message Board to say hello and discuss all the great Superman material being put out these days.

 
September 26 | Whoa.
So, I actually worked on the site tonight.

I hope that doesn't cause anyone a heart attack or anything. ;-)

 
March 12 | Links and Lots of Issues Added
Over the last couple weeks, I've added a large number of new issue to the Comic Index and made several additions and changes to the Links Section. More coming in the next few months. Stay tuned!

 
February 12 | Still here
Updates are still being made to the site... just not listed here. This is due, mostly, due to the fact that they're all "behind the scenes"-type changes. I'm diligently working on indexing character appearances and adding cover scans for the issues currently listed on the site. I'm about 75% of the way done. I'm still looking for someone who is interested in helping out with issue synopses. If you are, please contact me!

 
August 29 | Update on Updates
Updates to the site are still occuring regularly. There's just not been much noteworthy to put here. I just added a dozen or so new issues to the database, and am continuing to index character appearances and cover scans for the issues posted now.

There may be a slight break in updates as some server work is being done next week. However, updating will resume ASAP. Fear not!
