I guess the first collected edition of
Neil Gaiman's Lady Justice, from Super Genius comics, is finally on the shelves of specialty shops and through online dealers like Amazon. I edited this series
20 years ago for the original publisher, TeknoComix. I was lucky to be able to employ some very talented people on the book, like
Dan Brereton,
Michael Netzer,
Fred Harper and the late
CJ Henderson, among others. I'm proud of the work we did on the title, even if it was frustrating at times, thanks to the not-always-helpful input of the powers-that-were.
As this was all work-for-hire stuff, and I was on staff with Tekno, neither I nor the various creators will be seeing any royalties on these editions, I'm guessing. Still, it's kinda nice to see these books back in print. I wonder if new publisher Super Genius will be collecting any of the non-Gaiman-inspired titles from the company? It would be cool to see the other monthly series I edited,
Mickey Spillane's Mike Danger, or the
Leonard Nimoy's Primortals issues I wrote, all in nice collected editions.
