Well, from the interviews I've read with Barry, his beef was with Massarsky and Co. He didn't care for the money he was offered or the way it was handled. Now that those folks aren't in the picture anymore I'm hoping he would be willing to start fresh again.

BWS is one damn fine artist and writer. It's a shame that he doesn't share his talent more often.

Anyone know what he's working on now? I don't buy new books anymore, so I'm out of the loop.

The last thing I remember him doing were some X-Men covers during Morrison's run several years ago.

That's been on there for a few years, supposed to be a graphic novel coming to Vertigo, but who knows if it will ever make it...

BWS is one of the most talented artists of his generation. He's mentioned in the same breath as Neal Adams, and is equal in talent.

That gives the man a lot of leeway when it comes to attitude.

He's got the talent to back up the ego.

According to ComicBookDB, the last new thing he did that has been cataloged came out in 2002. I didn't realize it had been so long!

Hmm... looks like he has plenty of time on his hands to get to work on the new VU. Hopefully VEI gives him a call if they haven't already.
