3.2.05 Good, Bad, Indifferent

Some good news: A French publisher is interested in the French rights to SMOKE. And it's one of the three French publishers that I consider really amazing. Nothing is certain for some time yet, but fingers crossed. Igor is getting some amazing offers of work in France, more than he can cope with.

Also, I came home to find the contract for my FAUST adaptation waiting in my inbox. It's on, baby! Six fully-painted issues of love, demons and ruin, debuting late this year. Announcements to come later from the publisher.

Stephen Wilson and I worked overtime the past few days to get a feature film pitch in to Rankin/DAZED & CONFUSED, which is why I've been a bit quiet. Check out the cover page here, complete with Stephen's ace illustrations. I'm probably going to work this up as a spec script in my (laughably small) spare time, so any producers looking for a low-budget Ealing-Comedy-meets-Japanese-Indie-Flick style feature, talk to me.

Some bad news: Our publisher for our girls' comic is umming and ah-ing over the book for longer than expected, and as we all know I am THE LEAST PATIENT PERSON IN THE UNIVERSE. Am I coping with the wait? No, I am not.

Meanwhile: Sean Azzopardi has uploaded some of his photos from Angoulême. I adore his rather David Hockney-esque pic of the queue to get into the comic museum on Saturday.
