Hi all,
I got a postcard in the mail today (with my last name misspelled) informing me of a new project involving the James W. Douglass book. Looks like it is being adapted to a graphic novel format.
Here's more:

This is the first I've heard of it. I thought readers here might be interested.

this is awesome - a wonderful way to get the truth into the hands of the younger generations. I will pre-order or pay for the Kickstarter project.

This is neat.
First a play, now this. I just hope this is not all that is in our quiver for the 50th.
We'll see.

Yes, but will it be a made-for-TV mini-series?....not a chance....unless on some obscure internet feed. It needs to be made into a film, IMO, for more general viewing. Anything to get that MOST EXCELLENT book in front of more people is welcome! If a graphic novel works for those who don't read real books, so be it.

Graphic novels are great.
A picture paints a thousand words.
If you're ever struggling with Shakespheare, get a graphic novel. There's one for A Midsummer Nights Dream I read recently that is brilliant.
I already have JFk and the Unspeakable but I'm tempted by this.

Mike Hogan is a very good guy, but why is he not posting on this forum?!
