Veronica
Mars Season 4 ...From Wildstorm?
|
A
very bad mock-up.
Graphics aren't my strong suit. |
In
the podcast last week, we talked about a rumor going around
that television producer Rob Thomas, creator of the cult-favorite
and recently cancelled Veronica Mars, had been
seen at the DC offices. He confirmed that he had been exploring
the possibility of continuing Veronica's adventures in comics
form, a la the Dark Horse smash Buffy the
Vampire Slayer, Season 8.
Since
then, the comics sites haven't really been buzzing, but
there's some obvious overlap in fandom, as the show boasts
Kevin Smith and Joss Whedon as supporters. Sadly, that wasn't
enough to keep it on the air, but...
While
looking around the web for other things, I discovered the
strangest confirmation of the comic book. Quietly buried
in a
TV gossip column on E! Online comes a letter from someone,
we know not who, that works for DC.

They'll
be published by our Wildstorm imprint, which is based in
San Diego, and R.T. is looking to be firmly on board. We're
even hoping for a late fall release of the first issue.
So there
you go, fans of the adorable Kristen Bell. A two-dimensional
version of her is about to conquer the comics world. Keep
an eye out!
