Opens the floor to questions.

Marvel West does movies and video games might not have answers to those questions.

What comic should people be reading but aren't reading for Secret Invasion?

8 month story. New and Mighty Avengers. Might do tie-in miniseries. Creator summit in December.

Would guess there will be a Frontline. Strong possibility.

There are plans for more New Universal. No Larocca, new penciller. Ellis has two scripts in. April/May-ish 2008.

Invaders April/May. Will run concurrently with Secret Invasion.

Weekly comics? Bagley doing it at DC post latest crisis? Spider-Man thrice monthly. There were talks about a weekly book like a Marvel Comics Presents. Big undertaking, many variables. Probably not at Marvel, though.

More new characters? Don't seem to sell well in superhero books. Particularly with solo titles. Runaways has worked. Difficult to launch new characters.

Lateness of comics? Professionalism? Worth waiting for? Doesn't seem to be getting better. As a fan, can't stand it. Are lessons being learned? Marketing gets overzealous. News leaks, and ccompanies jump the gun. Hitch has six issues of F4 done so that book will run straight through. With One More Day, they thought they were far enough ahead but it didn't work out. Not making excuses but sometimes life gets in the way.

Not sure what happened to the lost Kirby/Lee F4 issue. Coming out soon. But doesn't know the annswer to that.

Rich Johnston said Marvel might pursue publishing ROM now that license ran out? Yes. Marvel (and Bendis) are interested. Hasbro even put G.I. Joe license up recently.

Next films? Iron Man, Hulk, Punisher 2 with Newman from Seinfeld as Microchip, Wolverine, rumors of Edgar Wright doing Antman. Rumor of Black Widow with Rebecca Romijn.

Is New Warriors ongoing now? Not sure. Thinks so. Outlining issues up to 18, he thinks.

Trying to get some older guys to come back for some things. No definite plans right now.

Bendis is doing Daredevil: The End. With some of the past artists returning.

Announcements: Two first time announcements. Including a new project from an Irish writer.

Sequel to Marvels? Three issues ready or so. Want it all done before soliciting.

X-Factor continuing, some roster changes post-Messiah Complex.

Variant cover to Messiah Complex. X-Men 205. Cyclops and glowing guy. Nezno?

Finch's cover to New X-Men 44. Finch covers link up.

Variant Cassiday cover to Astonishing 24, Kitty and Lockheed.

Last regular issue then Giant Sized.

Astonishing will be more closely tied to other titles post Messiah Complex.

Adj-less X-Men ending. X-Men Legacy launching. Scott Eaton main artist. Flashbacks iin each issue by a different artist. First one John Romita Jr.

Garth Ennis project for Marvel. War is Hell. Cassiday doing covers. Chayakin doing art. Sketch shown of cover. Phantom Eagle in first arc. Hardcore. MAX title, possibly.

Loners in Marvel X-Mas Special. Loners doing Secret Santa.

Avengers Fairy tales #1 in Spring. Captain America as Peter Pan, frozen in ice, Scarlet Witch as Wendy, Wasp as Tinkerbell. Four issue miniseries. Issue 2 is Wizard of Oz with She-Hulk, then Alice in Wonderland. Issue four, Tony Stark as Gephetto and Vision as Pinocchio.

Punisher Fairy Tales?

New NYX series, female creative team, writer from outside of comics.

Messiah Complex no delays. All planned out meticulously.

Next big event? Planning to focus on title books. But editorial can get pressured to create another event to increase sales.

Variant covers back? Weren't those supposed to stop? Marvel's gotten worse recently 1 in 25, DC 1 in 10. CB loves Variant covers so he's the wrong person to ask. But maybe marketing won out in the argument.

Had idea to do glow in the dark cover that would reveal skrulls for Secret Invasion.

2 fill in art issues for Thor, main artist's staying on it.

One More Day late due to artwork was ahead for issues one and two. Issue three is done. Cranking along on issue 4.

Halo licensing keeps requesting art changes. Patterns on boots, gun details.

After Marvel Zombies 2, probably going on hiatus.

Marvel Apes, Marvel pirates, Marvel vampires all been discussed.

Online subscription service. Doesn't know if you will be able to download it ever. Comics still feeling out online distribution. Royalties?

Bryan Singer and Ultimate X-Men? Larocca and Kirkman are team for the foreseeable future. Michael Turner still slated for an Ultimate project after Soulfire.
