Jim,
Great information! Iıve always been a sucker for those great Dell and Gold
Key painted covers.
Iıve since made contact with the literary agent who holds the rights to
Michael Shayne and she was adamant that the property would not be used in
comics. It was the first time Iıve actually encountered someone who
³verbally² held the graphic medium in such low esteem. Funny in that I
attempted to explain to her that our interest was in a pulp sized digest
with painted covers and spot black and white line art along with essay
material on the various writers associated with the property along with all
the other ancillary material such as films and stuff...she just scoffed.
Hmmmm, I guess it takes all kinds to make a world. I wish her luck in
selling this property for an exorbitant sum in todayıs market.
