There are a number of projects which J. Michael Straczynski has indicated that he is working on. As we hear updates
and other information on these items, we will update this page.
JMS Speaks about the B5 Graphic Novel
|
JMS AT RASTB5M SAID:
JAN.5.2003
What's the current status of the B5/Crusade graphic novel?
It's in need of some spare round tuits....
MAR.29.2002
There should be something announced about that shortly.
FEB.13.2001
My last conversation with them indicated a length of about 100 pages,
give or take.
FEB.13.2001
I will be writing a one-off B5 Graphic Novel for Wildstorm that will
debut later this year. I figure on writing it as soon as I get out from under my current
deadlines.
FEB.13.2001
I think I'd like to do something in continuity with the series, so
that it feels like an unproduced episode...but I haven't decided yet, and don't want to go
too far down that road until I've talked more to the guys at Wildstorm. They've been great in
all this, they initiated the project, and I want to be sure that welcome is treated properly.
WB owns the rights, which reverted after DC stopped doing the books. They'd rather not go to
an outside company for political reasons.
OCT.18.2000
WB didn't want to let the book outside "the family" so they wouldn't
let anyone other than DC do it, but now that Wildstorm is owned by DC, it's a possibility.

JMS Speaks about Doctor Strange
|
JMS AT RASTB5M SAID:
NOV.30.2003
The first issue of the Doc Strange mini is nearly done.
JUN.3.2003
JQ has mentioned that a new Dr Strange series is being "worked on".
I know you've said you'd love to be part of this. What are the chances of you being
involved?
100%.
JAN.12.2003
I've turned an expanded, 35 page outline for a Doctor Strange limited
series in to Marvel, and will be writing the script for that one as soon as I can get my head
above water (easier on the keyboard that way). I wanted to bring the Doc into the 21st
century and revisualize certain aspects of his character and his history. It's not intended
to be as deep or as potentially controversial as Supreme Power, this one's for fun because
I'm a longtime fan of Doc Strange, and want to do something nifty with the character.

JMS Speaks about Dream Police
|
JMS AT RASTB5M SAID:
JUN.4.2003
Is it correct to infer that [the delay with Rising Stars] are what
has also indefinately delayed Dream Police, which you have previously stated is already
written and inked?
No, in that it's been written now for a few years (literally), but only a few pages have been
drawn. The thing is just sort of laying there.
OCT.31.2002
"Dream Police" was turned in over a year ago, but there have been
lots of delays on that side of things, so I have no idea when that's coming out.
MAR.29.2002
Plans are for Top Cow to do it as a one-shot; DP was never itself
planned as an anthology, but rather one issue *in* that anthology.
SEP.6.2001
Also this fall we should see the debut of my new anthology comic from
Top Cow, each issue presenting a different story. We haven't nailed down a title yet; I
suggested Eccentric Tales, they like Joe's Comics Presents or Tales of Joe.
JUN.5.2001
I've already lined up the next regular series, an anthology title, and
a new graphic novel, Delicate Creatures, which is already written. I don't want to do more
than 3 books per month (2 Joe's Comics titles, 1 other title a la Spider-Man) so one will
have to phase out to make room for another to avoid the workload getting too hairy.
