Jim,

Hi. Rob Vollmar, writer of BLUESMAN here. Man, thanks so much for helping us spread the word. It means double coming from you as my wife and I are HUGE admirers of your work.

We have indeed sold the development option for BLUESMAN to a reputable producer and are currently watching that process unfold. There are some pretty amazing developments underway that I can’t fully divulge but Keb Mo is officially attached to produce the eventual soundtrack.

My first book with Pablo, THE CASTAWAYS, was re-released from NBM in hardcover this year with a softcover edition hitting the market in November. I also have a 5 issue mini-series with artist mpMann called Inanna’s Tears that is coming out right now from Archaia Studios Press. It is set in ancient Sumer and speculates on the transition from temple matriarchy to partiarchal kingship circa 3000 BCE.

Thanks again for your kind words!

Best, Rob Vollmar

JH,

Loved Batman 667. I think what amazes me about your art is your ability to pay homage to different art styles.

Also, great taste in music - I’ll have to grab that Siouxsie remasters now that I know it’s out. She’s also got a solo album coming out the middle of next month called mantaray.

Thats a hell of a play list.
I’ve been thinking about picking up that isobel Campbel album for a bit now. I may just have to run out and get it now.

hey there mark
i’m not sure what is going on with announcments for my next project but i’m about to start work on it in the next couple of weeks. so things are moving forward. i do know the schedule for it has dramatically changed so that may be the reason for the delay. so word might not be officially released for awhile.

hey there ralph
thanks for showing me those reviews. i had only seen the one from jog and have been haunting message boards to gauge reactions.
i had heard rumours that bluesman might become a film. do you know if there is any truth to that?
and yes we watched LA ink too. i think we are going to have to go see the shop in person and see if one of them will do my next tat. i tried to get chris graver but he has yet to respond to my emails for months now. my next tat is complicated and i’m going to need someone great to do it.

Jim, I’m sure that your Batman #667 is being reviewed favorable all over the blogsphere, but two I wanted to point out to your are over at the All Star Savage Critics blog (Brian Hibbs’ San Francisco store Comix Experience):
http://savagecritic.com (or just do a search on Savage Critic), read Graeme McMillan’s Sunday, August 12th post and scroll down a bit to a post from Saturday titled “If I Don’t Finish Before Sunrise…” posted by Jog. They have a good grasp of your artistic wizardry.

I also loved the Bluesman books. I haven’t checked out John From Cincinatti yet, but I have heard that even people that don’t get it can’t stop watching! Have you checked out Kat’s new LA Ink show yet (it just started last Tuesday)?
