    The NWM part.

     

    In regards to your book “Nowhere Men,” many have wondered about its absence, especially with yourself, Nate Bellegarde, and the book earning Eisner nominations and both Emi Lenox and Moritat being featured in solicits for future issues. Recently, Nate gave readers an answer, opening up publicly on how the book’s delays were entirely on his end and what caused them. With that out in the open now, do you have plans set for the future of the book? Do you have anything you want to add to what Nate said?

     

    ES: Well, as you may have gathered from the statement Nate posted online, the future of Nowhere Men is kind of out of my hands. Half of issue seven is drawn. It looks great. It’s absolutely stunning work on Nate’s part. He’s tremendously gifted, but unfortunately, as a result of his situation, we’ve been at a standstill for almost a year now. Back in January, my hope was that we could at least wrap up the second arc. That would have left readers in a satisfying place, and I would have more or less accomplished what I’d set out to do story-wise. I’d still like to do that, but honestly, everything is up in the air right now. We tried getting someone else as a replacement – Jake Wyatt, Möritat – and what we learned is that Nowhere Men really only works if it’s Nate, Steven, Jordie, and myself. So without Nate, Nowhere Men ceases to exist on any real level, and without Nowhere Men on our schedules, Jordie, Steven, and I have moved on to other things. We’re all pulling for Nate, obviously, but the whole situation is just deeply saddening. Hopefully, things improve for Nate at some point, because he’s too talented to have his career derailed like this.

  2. Issues 4 to 6 had about 10,000 to 15,000 printed for each issue.

     

    Serious question. Do you guys think they could still sell around 10,000 to 15,000 of #7 WHEN it comes out? I think it would sell easy. What do you think?

  3. I just found a 1st print issue 1 at a small comic shop earlier today and paid cover price....whatever happened to this series, I know it was hot for awhile...are they going to continue new issues or is it done for???

     

    At the Image booth last weekend I heard that they are putting it on hold for the summer and planning on going bi-weekly this fall as a thank you to the fans. Issues #7 - 20 will be ready to go then.

     

    Shirley you can't be serious.

     

     

    If so :whee:
