I realised last week, much to my dismay, that I’d forgotten the name of the series - thankfully, a kind Reddit user identified the name for me within merely a few hours, and I think this is a testament to the dedicated Abadazad fan base out there, still waiting for the day you release the next books. But of course, I’m sure you know this already!Megan Lnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4193334913733210326.post-23990981628508022742019-04-13T09:47:37.730-04:002019-04-13T09:47:37.730-04:00You can find all three ABADAZAD novels (well, they...You can find all three ABADAZAD novels (well, they're a mix of prose and comics) on Amazon.

How cool is that? <br /><br />Maybe you guys could team up for a SUPERMAN annual down the line. I know a lot of people have suggested you could bring your trademark BWA-HA-HA to the Man of Steel, but I suspect you and Keith would bring something different to the table...just like you did with JLA/JLI in 1987, and later with HERO SQUARED. <br /><br />Up, up and away!David Waltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12087646905757912129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4193334913733210326.post-60752983135229247832011-10-02T17:01:45.092-04:002011-10-02T17:01:45.092-04:00Well, Jack, "The Used To Be a Secret But Now ...Well, Jack, "The Used To Be a Secret But Now It's Not Origin of Abadazad" just didn't sound like a good title! :)J.M.
