I'd be really curious to see what you think of my fan-fiction re-boot of the DCU that I put together a few years ago.....
REALLY curious......... I never finished it but I got pretty pretty pretty far......
Link? Never knew of it till now.
Got an interesting email today that I found to be quite an honor to be asked to help with. Edited of course for names

Hi, Ryan. My name is XXXXXXXXXX, and I'm a freelance editor/coordinator
for Marvel Comics' trade paperback department.
I'm working on the "Moon Knight Epic Collection: Shadows of the Moon" TPB,
collecting Moench and Sienkiewicz's 1980s Moon Knight run. I'd love to
include Bill Sienkiewicz's 1981 portfolio in the back as a bonus feature,
but Marvel doesn't have any art or film on file for it.
According to your gallery, you own a copy:

Do you still own this? Would you be willing to scan all five pieces for
us, so we can print them in the TPB?
I'd like to deliver the scans to my in-house editor by the end of this
week...please let me know if you're up for this! I'd be happy to run your
name in the book's Special Thanks section.
We need 600 dpi scans, saved in .tif format with no compression. We'd
like a half inch of blank space left around all four sides of each image.
And even though the portfolio pages are grayscale, we'd like the scans to
be in color if possible.
That's awesome!
Scans were sent off & received today, the Trade Paperback should be out in October.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Zoe Saldana will star in an adaptation of Joe Kelly and Ken Niimura‘s I Kill Giants. The film will be directed by Anders Walter, an Academy Award winner for this short film Helium.
Saldana will play a school psychologist who tries to help lead character Barbara, played by Madison Wolfe, as she confronts giants on the beach and in her mind.
Writer Joe Kelly also wrote the screenplay. It currently has no release date.
Deadline reported that the director on the project Rupert Wyatt had dropped out and THR report that it’s down to script issues demanding a greater budget. So you know, that kind of fits…
Wyatt has issued the following statement, “I was very much looking forward to working with my friend Channing and the team at Fox, but regrettably a push in the start date now conflicts with another project. I thank them for the opportunity, and I know that Gambit will make a terrific film.”
