AE was one of the best books I've read in the past year or so. Any updates on Heroes of Tomorrow?

Hey, Drew, congrats on the AE trade! Was wondering... is the book kid friendly enough to be included in a middle school library?

[ Posted by DrewMelbourne on Jan 25th, 2007 7:28 PM ]... Probably not, no. There's some sexual content (pretty mild, but it's still there) in chapters one and two.

[ Posted by Cinar on Jan 5th, 2007 7:10 PM ]...

looks like I gotta check your series :)

How in the world can someone who calls themselves a freelance writer actually afford an apartment in the city? Are you selling your body, or perhaps your bone-marrow? Or is it possible that you don't actually have an apartment but have instead pitched a tent in the men's room at Penn Station?

I mean, I was living on ramen and PBJ to afford an apartment in ALBANY until recently. What the hell?

[ Posted by DrewMelbourne on Dec 28th, 2006 10:19 AM ]... I spent most of 2006 just writing. Recently, I've had to take on a side/day job. I was going to sell my body instead, but no one was buying.

How are things?!

[ Posted by charlesdraws on Dec 17th, 2006 3:13 PM ]...

Hi Drew, thanks for adding me. I'm also balancing a love of making comics with an interest in stand-up comedy.

[ Posted by thepurelands on Dec 14th, 2006 1:29 PM ]...

Hi, Drew! Once I figured out ArchEnemies had nothing to do with feet (well, almost nothing to do with feet) I checked it out and thought it was pretty fun.

[ Posted by wonderealm on Dec 14th, 2006 10:43 AM ]...

Hey Drew,

Thanks for checking ut my site. I'm a big fan of the column over at Scryptic, and I'll see you around here or the Engine!

Thanks for the add, Drew. I enjoyed the hell out of ArchEnemies. I loved how the covers tied into the story.

Keep up the good work!
