Too Funny :)

I had the exact same epiphany at Philly Classic a couple years ago. I've never been terribly star struck -- yes I would have drooled over the chance to meet Douglas Adams while he was around, but that is a different story.

At the Philly Classic (Vintage Video Game Convention) Cindy Morgan of Tron and Caddyshack fame was selling cells from Tron and I went total fan boy on her -- got my picture with her -- the works.

Keep up the great story telling guys -- I don't think it is just me who sees themselves every week in the pages of EZ Street.

Thanks, Craig. I chuckled a couple times re-reading the strip today just because it, obviously, hits home for me. In particular I was remembering when Todd Livingston and I had just finished writing THE BLACK FOREST as a screenplay and we were so happy with it and boom - within days they announced Stephen Sommers was making VAN HELSING - thus killing any chance we may have had to turn the script into a film. Six months work down the drain. On the plus side that paved the way for us to enter comics - thanks to Neil Vokes who wanted to adapt the story as a screenplay. But that wonderful turn of events was months away and in that terrible moment, boy did I have some dark fantasties! Ironically, years later I ended up working with the the Sommers Company on another project and are they ever great guys.

Of course you understand that we only included Veronica because it helped us make an important story point.

Right.
