Publishers Weekly recently published an interview with indie comic god
Jeff Smith. Click
here to read more about Smith's upcoming title
RASL, a quarterly series
PW describes as "a blend of science fiction and noir, following an art thief who jumps dimensions to steal famed paintings".
CNN.com has an interview up with Brian K. Vaughn. Click
here to read about the movie version of his award-winning comic
Y: The Last Man, his feelings about the end of the series, and his work on the TV show
Lost.
And speaking of Vaughn, I recently learned that his series
Runaways is about to be handed over to writer Terry Moore (creator of
Strangers in Paradise, possibly the world's whiniest comic series) and artist Humberto Ramos. Click
here to check out Ramos's sketch of the
Runaways characters. I, sadly, was forced to give up on
Runaways when
SPOILER! they killed off Gert, but I am willing to recommit to the series if they resuscitate her (even if it
is being written by ol' Who-Doesn't-Love-a-90-Issue-Long-Love-Triangle? Moore).
You hear that,
Runaways? Bring back Gert, and all is forgiven!

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Marvel's Runaways series will be getting its very own film adaptation sometime in the (probably very distant) future. Series creator Brian K. Vaughn is writing the adaptation.
