I'm super stoked that the young adult books are being made into graphic novels.

Is it just me or is everyone else buying more and more graphic novels?

Paul, would you consider doing a short series of graphic novels that chronicle the First Age adventures of Glaeken?

A reader wrote pointing out that "Faces" should not be in Year Zero Minus Three because, by internal timing, it takes place in 1989. He's right, so I'm going to have to change that.

Good Eye!

After reading my Gauntlet edition of FATAL ERROR, i liked it so much i thought about going back and trying to obtain Gauntlet editions for the series. THE KEEP is not listed on their webpage at all and most others are listed as sold out. Is there any other way to find copies of these? Is E-Bay the only option?

I was watching Red the other day and thought he would be a good Jack. For those who dont know him, he also played Bones in the Star Trek reboot.

I hope the movie isnt a sore spot these days, just an observation on my part.

Hello, Gang.
Been away for awhile and decided to drop in, after finishing up with the latest RJ novel "Fatal Error". I had just finished another book called "Sandman Slim", and I see that a couple of the people on this site had actually read it, and I was wondering if anyone else noticed how it seems that while all the stuff that was going on in the last couple of novels with Jack on the East Coast, this book almost seems like the same timeline, just set on the West Coast, in Los Angeles.
It's a truely amazing story, with a GREAT ending! No doubt that it will be made into a movie shortly. The comparisons between Jack and "James" (sandman Slim) are incredible, they could be brothers, both in mannerisms and in descriptions. Sandman Slim was a LIVING human, who was dragged into Hell, first time in creation that was done, and then, after 11 years of torture, and fighting his way daily, just to "stay alive" (since he cannot be killed easily), he stumbles on a way to escape from Hell, and come back to Earth, to get his revenge on those that sent him to Hell.
Long story short, he runs into a group of "angels", who want him to join them, since he is now a legend in both Hell AND Heaven, but not to fight the demons and Satan, but to fight a "Other" group of beings (Almost like the "Otherness" from Jack's universe) These are beings who get power from chaos (Like Molasar) and they want to pit Hell against Heaven, so they can step in, after the smoke clears, and just take over the whole ballgame.
the more I read, the more I noticed subtle comparisons to Jack's universe, and several aspects of that, including a person that Sandman Slim goes to, just like "Abe" in Jack's universe, this fellow is a bartender at a beer bar on Hollywood Blvd. Very similar situations.
Anyway, I'm going out to get the second novel "Kill the dead" right after I logoff from here! I just LOVE that story!

Let me know what you people think!:alberteinstein:

As anyone else read their copy?

I kept getting confused that I had to grab an old copy to compare.

In the Gauntlet edition Yoshio switches back and forth between mentally calling Alicia 'Alicia Clayton' and 'Alicia Gordon'.

In the old edition it's always 'Alicia Clayton'.

I was curious as to the longest you've had a story idea germinate before it became an actual story and of course, which story was it?

For those who haven't yet read HARBINGERS, avoid this thread. Spoiler Alert!



Another flash from the past. These are shots I took at the time HARBINGERS first came out. They show where the Gia and Vicky suffered the hit and run "accident." They also show the place where a particularly heinous act was carried out...by Jack. Or, put another way, where Zek left his heart. :eek:

First Shot:
The cul de sac, nearly invisible from the highway or the walkway that pass it, where Jack and Zek had a heartless encounter.

Second, Third, and Fourth Shots:
Assorted views of the cul de sac from across the highway, from the walkway nearly right in front of it and from the walkway several yards away. Jack knew the exact right spot to pick for the job.

Fifth Shot:
The intersection where Gia and Vicky suffered the hit and run "accident."

A few years back, I posted a link to these photos that I took on Sutton Square, the street where Gia lives. I thought I'd bring 'em back again for those who may have missed them.

First Shot:
The tiny street of Sutton Square. Could that be Gia and Vicky walking together? At the time these shots were taken, the tiny park at the end of the street was under construction.

Second Shot:
Corner of York Avenue and Sutton Square.

Third Shot:
The house I believe to be Gia's.

Fourth Shot:
The view from Gia's house, overlooking the 59th Street Bridge and the East River.

Fifth Shot:
Looking east down Gia's tiny street; her house is the last on the left.

Anyone seen the previews for this remake? I am pretty excited for it even though I am a big fan of the original with John Wayne I think Bridges, Damon and Brolin starring in it along with the Coen brothers being in control can't be a bad thing.
