I mean me (because there's more than one in this neighborhood).

Next week (Wednesday, May 7), I have a story in the Red Sonja anthology, SAVAGE TALES. Issue #7 has a lead-in story by yours truly.

The week after, though, is a bigger deal.

SUPERMAN #676 available on May 14 hits comic shops and newsstands everywhere. This is a huge deal for me, as it is a flagship title and a franchise character. This is one of DC's most important titles (Action Comics, Detective Comics and Batman with Superman are the longest running titles in the line) so this is a major milestone for me. Now and forever, I can be referred to as "Superman writer Vito Delsante" so I'm asking for all of your support on this one.

To find a comic store near you, call 1888-COMIC BOOK (1-888-266-4226)

Thanks!

Well, I am buying both those issues anyway. But...if you want to count my $3 as support of the Vito, then do so.

Not at all. I met the guy for all of 7 minutes as I talked a mile a minute to Ron.:rolleyes:

Counted. Although now I feel like Turturro in Lebowski...the Vito.

Hey everyone, I'm bumping this up because my first SAVAGE TALES comes out today (#7). If you pick it up, let me know what you think!

He told me I was very recognizable (from when I was at the 100th episode taping). How can one not recognize my huge, round head and constant look of paranoia? :D

Ron introduced me to a lot of people that weekend. Vito didn't ask me to throw out his lemonade cup for him. Which was a refreshing change of pace.

Excited to pick up Savage Tales today. I've never read the title, but I'm always looking for a nice pulpy yarn.

yeah, everyone here should feel bad for bigyanks. He's one of my first customers of the day (I should remind everyone...I also work at Jim Hanley's Universe, proud sponsor of iFanboy). Poor yanks gets the short end of the stick of my sales pitch. I'm not very subtle at 8:30 AM :D
