Paul has dropped me a line to say that the project has been moving along since then - Garry is off to the Joe Kubert School of Art but another Gary, this time Gary Crutchley, has stepped in to take care of the art and lettering duties (leaving me to wonder if Paul has a large cupboard with a supply of artist named Gary or Garry in his study?). Ambrosia Publishing has picked up the book and the title has been changed to The Retrospective Detective to avoid any possible conflict with another comics writer. Publication dates haven’t been set yet, although it should be sometime in 2008 - meantime Paul has this excellent piece of art for us to feast our eyes on; of course we’ll let you know as soon as we hear more details and for further information you should check Paul’s blog where he’s been posting about how the work is coming together. I’m looking forward to this one and have cleaned my Fedora hat in anticipation.
