2/27/2006 07:03:00 PM|W|P|Fialkov|W|P|Jebus. Thanks for all the well-wishes and kind words everybody. I'm behind on a deadline, so I'm gonna end up not answering a lot of these, at least not tonight. For those concerned, we're fine, and all saw this coming, so, don't worry. We've been planning our next move for quite some time, and know what's what. Of course, if you really want to cheer me up you can visit http://www.WorldsEnd-TheComic.com and http://www.PunksTheComic.com still on the horizon.|W|P|114109593246770692|W|P|Oh...|W|P|joshfialkov@gmail.com2/27/2006 03:06:00 PM|W|P|Fialkov|W|P|So, just got off the phone with Adam Fortier, President etc. of Speakeasy Comics. Speakeasy is no more. Due to some payment problems and low sales, it seems, they've had to lock up shop. Elk's Run... well... We're working on it. The book is 90% done, and it's murder keeping it away from you guys, cause frankly, I've never been prouder than I am of the back half of the series. Everything clicks, and it's just amazing work from Keating and Noel... The type of stuff you, as a writer, only dream of having turned in. The book will come out. You will get to read the rest of the series. When and How are still our main questions.|W|P|114108175056818673|W|P|Speakeasy, RIP|W|P|joshfialkov@gmail.com2/27/2006 10:02:00 PM|W|P|Blogger Mark Fossen|W|P|We'll be following, Josh.

I don't care who publishes it ... I just want my Elk's Run. Hopefully this will all work out, and lead to even better things for Elk's Run.2/28/2006 06:59:00 AM|W|P|Anonymous Anonymous|W|P|I echo the previous poster. I'm sorry to hear about Speakeasy, but really, I just want my Elk's Run. Speakeasy's problems were various and sundry; one of them was not a dearth of quality products.
Good Luck to all affected by this.2/28/2006 08:58:00 AM|W|P|Blogger Mark Fossen|W|P|it's murder keeping it away from you guys

By the way ... feel free to send me all the PDFs of the remaining issues if it'll make you feel better. :) :) :)2/28/2006 09:12:00 AM|W|P|Blogger EthylBenzene|W|P|Good luck!2/28/2006 11:10:00 AM|W|P|Blogger Caleb|W|P|I'd love to see an Elk's Run OGN, but I'll take it in whatever format you guys put it out in.2/28/2006 05:15:00 PM|W|P|Anonymous Anonymous|W|P|This Speakeasy drama has finally played out and left many of us burned again. None more then the creators who scramble now to find another outlet for their work. I feel bad for you guys and will support your books anywhere the turn up.2/28/2006 08:36:00 PM|W|P|Anonymous Anonymous|W|P|Joshua -- been a huge fan of ELK'S RUN since I left the mountains of WV last year for Hollywood and ran into Senor Rodriguez at ComicCon, who pressed a copy of the first issue into my hands.

I've since turned on several other folks to the great story. Hope it continues. Best o'luck2/24/2006 09:33:00 PM|W|P|Fialkov|W|P|

Are you trying to tease me with this talk of t-shirts? Or is it just for a special club?

'Cause though I generally avoid comic t-shirts ...

I'm tryign to convince him the Abe Smashes Zombie Carrot shirt is a worthwhile 2nd t-shirt!2/19/2006 09:00:00 PM|W|P|Fialkov|W|P|From getting back from San Fran on Sunday night, I was literally running non-stop from place to place. Gary and I were on a game show on Tuesday and squarely got our asses kicked. It was thoroughly embarassing. Been plugging away at both the day job, the writing assignments, and a bit of transcribing every day. I also finally settled down and watched the original BBC version of The Office. I don't know if it's a problem with my BBC America or DirecTV or what, but whenever I'd watch it on TV, I'd go nuts because I couldn't hear what the fuck they were saying, to the point of utter irritation. So, now, armed with the DVD's, I'm almost the whole way through and pretty well in love. I still prefer the American version (Steve Carrel is less irritating and considerably less 'mean' than Ricky Gervais's version of the character which goes a long way.) The biggest pleasure of the show, which is also the highlight of the American version, is the relationship between Tim/Jim and Dawn/Pam. It's the most honest and natural thing about the show, and it helps smooth over the more forced stuff that surrounds it. Aside from that, getting the last of the stuff ready to send out for World's End, which'll be going to publishers this week-ish, getting the business plan together on Punks, doing takes for two different properties (a tv show and a comic), and getting ready to pitch for a gig writing a low-budg feature. In other words... busy fucking week.|W|P|114041208850614694|W|P|My Week Swallowed Me Up|W|P|joshfialkov@gmail.com2/14/2006 05:21:00 PM|W|P|Fialkov|W|P|
