Pretty excited about this. My 1998 short film “Po Mo Knock Knock,” written by David Ball, directed by yours truly, and starring Bill Stiles, David Ball, and Vin Knight, is playing at 7 pm on August 14 at the Austin Film Festival’s Made in Texas short film screening!
Had a lot of fun with this last night, so I figured I’d try it again before plunging into the nightshift.
Ask me questions and I’ll try to answer ‘em!
I’ll just ask everyone to avoid spoilers and to please not pitch projects or stories – I can’t read or respond to those!
Also, life is short, so nastiness or personal attacks against anyone automatically get deleted. But y’all are cool, I know. 😉
Thanks!
DC Comics has released a couple of gorgeous colored pages from the “Zod” book I’m writing and Ken Lashley is drawing. The book’s full title is “Action Comics #23.2: Zod,” so I guess it’s technically my first issue of “Action”! 😉
The book hits stores in September. Ask your local retailer to order a copy for you today!

Taking a little break, thought we could try out this fancy new website together. Ask me questions and I’ll try to answer ’em!

iTunes stops downloading podcasts if you haven’t listened to them for a while.
I don’t check or listen to certain podcasts every week. But I want to keep downloading them, because sometimes they’re no longer available if you miss them the week they’re released (looking at you, “This American Life”). So I’d love to figure out a way to have iTunes keep downloading, even if I’m not listening.
Any ideas?
UPDATE: Whoa, that was fast! Jason Snell found this script to take care of the problem!
Steve Sunu at Comic Book Resources interviewed me about Superman and the various villains books I’m writing for DC Comics. Check it out!
Cover above is for “Batman/Superman” #3, drawn by Jae Lee with colors by June Chung. Pretty, ain’t it?
The fine folks at Den of Geek interviewed me about “Eternal Warrior” — and ran a six page colored preview!

Another test – trying to see if I’ve got comments working here. Not sure I actually want to use them very much, but testing out the tool.
So I’ve been upgrading and updating gregpak.com, and this is just a test to see if things are working properly and links are going out to Twitter and App.net.
THIS IS ONLY A TEST.
UPDATE: That worked. Now let’s see if it sends it out again when I edit/update the post. I don’t want it to, but let’s see.
I talked with ComicVine about the “Eternal Warrior” series I’m writing for Valiant Comics. An excerpt:
CV: What’s it been like working with Trevor Hairsine, who’s uncolored work looked pretty awesome?
GP: Trevor’s amazing and I feel hugely lucky to have been paired with him. He’s actually just signed an exclusive with Valiant, so I’m kind of cackling over here thinking about the potential for settling in for a long stretch with him. He’s just perfect for the gritty heroic adventure tales we’re telling. He’s brilliant at big, comic book action, but he brings a kind of visceral atmosphere and reality to his characters and environments that’s just critical for a character like Gilad.
