This news is eleven days old, but still worth posting: Comic Book Resources recently interviewed comics legend Walter Simonson about his upcoming Two-Face-related graphic novel, The Judas Coin, an exciting project which I've previous posted about here.While it's been clear that Harvey is going to be but one of several characters across this story ( Read more... )
