“DC In Demand” Quote
Editor Joan Hilty asked me for a quote to be used for the 10.05 edition of the “DC In Demand” page, which will carry an item about *Hard Time* and will run in all of the DC comics issued that month. I suggested, in part, the following:
“You’ve just experienced a year of changes in the DC Universe. Now experience a comic book that will change *you*.”
I hope they use it, and if they do, all of you blog readers can take some credit for having inspired it.

Wow. I just got goose pimples!

Yay! Very much looking forward to it.
Beyond HT, do you have any other comic works coming up? I’ve been loving Hard Time, but I also wonder what a book like you – set in the changed DCU – would look like. It’d be damn exciting, I think.

(Uh … shoulda have been “book by you”. Think I’d have learned to proofread before posting by now.)

I’ve been talking with DC about a new version of one of their oldest characters. We’ll see what happens.
(And before anyone asks — yes, I’m applying my own criteria to working on a character created by others. One of the creators of this character is deceased; the other left the comics industry many decades ago.)

Steve, just a note to tell you that based on your work on HARD TIMES, I will order from Diamond any title you choose to do from DC. New, old, Wildstorm or Vertigo.

Great quote, Steve.
And looking forward to whatever you do, be it yours or someone else’s character.

Dear Mr. Gerber,
I notice that it’s been a number of days since you posted anything new. I hope that you are well.
