I’ve tumbled head first into Google+ and am enjoying it enormously. Please feel free to check out my posts there — lots of stuff about all of my comics and film projects.
And if you need an invite, have one on me! Google+ is still in beta and to sign up you need an invitation — but the service is letting everyone currently on board invite up to 150 people. And I still have 130-something invites left. So the first 130 people or so who click on this link will get an invite. First come, first served!
Have fun and see you on the other side.

Greg Pak to write “Dead Man’s Run” for Gale Anne Hurd’s Valhalla and Aspen Comics

Posted on by

Greg Pak is writing a new comic book called “Dead Man’s Run” for Gale Anne Hurd’s Valhalla Entertainment and Aspen Comics! An excerpt from the press release:

The property promises to show readers an entirely new vision of hell, the land of eternal damnation, through the imaginative mind of acclaimed writer Pak. Valhalla and Aspen describe the premise of Dead Man’s Run: “In a future where hell exists as an underground prison for the reanimated dead, a young man enlists a team of the damned to escape and save his innocent sister’s soul.

Pak will attend the Aspen panel at the San Diego Comicon on Friday at noon in Room 4 to talk about the project and reveal its artist.
