That's just great.... now I no longer possess the image of
the last Byrne art ever created..... A great Batman sketch,
done by finger, on the cold glass of a deli counter
display. I called it Batman Condensed.
(Had hoped to share the image, though I am getting
"forbidden" message when I attempt to... must be a reply
quality control feature.)

I found this amusing:
We live in cynical times!

Great news to hear. Can't wait to see this art work in color and in my hands. Nothing like the feel of a comic book in your hands while reading.

Will the scans/threads stay preserved on the JBF?

JB:
Are you familiar with Barry Windsor-Smith's Ad Astra In Africa, Freebooters and Young Gods?
I was thinking about them today and realized there were some interesting parallels with these Elsewhen collections.
Ad Astra In Africa was developed from an X-Men story Windsor-Smith had withdrawn, Lifedeath III. It and the others were serials in his Storyteller comic for Dark Horse. He found himself unable to continue the stories after its cancellation, and the collections contained the completed chapters, with text and rough art documenting where they were to go, and why they remained unfinished.
Very different circumstances, and very different comics, of course. But I was like, hey...

This truly is wonderful news and I shall go and pre-order mine imminently. In this day and age it is nothing short of miraculous that this was kept under wraps until the announcement. How splendid.
Quick Question JB: Am I correct in assuming (always a danger, I know) that the printed collections will feature the revised pages, with Colossus sans leg-cast?

I preordered yesterday as I realised the digital version was listed on Amazon
UK. Strangely, the physical appears not to be listed.
Im hoping pre-orders are good as a show of support.
