But I have news: after DC Comics canceled much of its Zuda imprint, rights were returned and we creators were free to continue our stories as we chose&#8230; and writer Michael Jasper and I are going for it. :) I&#8217;m happy to announce that Issue 1 of IN MAPS [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m sad to announce that ZudaComics.com, DC Comics&#8217; web comic imprint, is no more. The publisher has folded Zuda into its digital publishing plans with Comixology, and, due to a number of reasons, none of the most recent series (any from the last year or so) are making the transition. This unfortunately means that IN [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last November, readers at DC Comics&#8217; web imprint Zuda.com rallied and voted for IN MAPS &#038; LEGENDS, written by Michael Jasper and drawn by myself.
