Publishing schedule coming into focus...

Talked to Eric Stephenson today, to confirm that January was good for '76. Here's how I hope it'll play out:

November: HAWAIIAN DICK #1
December: HAWAIIAN DICK #2, HAWAIIAN DICK BYRD OF PARADISE TPB (reprint)
January: HAWAIIAN DICK #3, '76 #1
February: HAWAIIAN DICK #4, '76 #2
March: HAWAIIAN DICK #5, '76 #3
April: '76 #4
May: HAWAIIAN DICK #6, HAWAIIAN DICK SBT TPB (maybe), '76 #5
June: HAWAIIAN DICK #7, '76 #6
July: HAWAIIAN DICK #8, '76 #7
August: HAWAIIAN DICK #9, '76 #8
September: open

I need to slot THE MAN CALLED...COFFIN! in there somewhere. Of course, that schedule is pretty much a best case scenario.

Just got contracts on BILLY SMOKE, a new book Eric Kim and I will be doing at Oni (as an OGN), and have two DC projects (JSA CLASSIFIED being one) that are written, with two more in the hopper. The book Tony Harris and I are doing probably won't launch until late next year (although I'm already plotting it). Artist Nolan Woodard and I have a horror OGN we're talking to someone about, and then there's IRONHEAD (see above), with Seth and Ransom, which we plan on doing at Image in the sixteen page "slimline" format. Jeremy and I are supposed to be talking with someone about a licensed project, but I'm not sure where that stands at this point.

And, you know...there's always more stuff in the works...
