Valentino - excuse me JIM Valentino called when he saw the sketch in CBG to say he was looking forward to seeing this one. Normalman might even be optioned by Touchhole Films - excuse me TouchStone Films by the time this comes out which could possibly make us targets of a Disney's Magic Castle Lawsuit. Well, blow me, Michael Eisner.

I always thought Normalroach looked a bit like Gerhard.

Love that panel with the "F" . . . "Fuh" . . . one of the funnier moments in the otherwise morose Melmoth storyline.
