Crowing Gossip

Rich Johnston's column on the Comic Book Resources site 'Lying in the Gutters' which houses various bits of comic book gossip has this mention of O'Barr:

CROW FEET

I hear "Crow" creator James O'Barr has become quite a feature at his local comic shows, drawing demonic variants of Batman and Daredevil for his fans

Recently he brought out a series of prints to sell - not his own, but of other creators. About ten years old, there's quite a variety.

However, as time has gone by, the prices have dropped. O'Barr clearly needs that basement space, down from, $35 to $25 to $20 to $15.

One enterprising young buyer tried to haggle him down to $10 on a Curt Swan Superman print only to be told a tale. That Swan doesn't sign much anymore, that he's close to being blind and that O'Barr saw him escorted around the San Diego show this summer by some of his assistants, cause he's nearly blind.

Of course, Curt Swan passed away in 1996.

The buyer didn't wait to ask if O'Barr had seen a crow near Swan...

November

Well, October really has been a strange month in the world of The Crow, certainly a month where the fans of The Crow have been more prolific than The Crow itself! Halloween has been a big part of this, and let us again remind you, if you have any pics of yourself dressed as The Crow this Halloween, send them in to Croween and hopefully you'll win some prizes! What does this month have in store for us? Well, considering we're here day in and day out reporting on The Crow, there's always something around the corner. We do have a new movie to look forward to as well as some other projects on the side. If you've got some money left after Halloween, there's also a bit of merchandise. So stay with us Crow Fans, we've got a long way to go!

History

Every month, it's good to reflect upon the past, to review the projects that were and what will be. Our news archive dates right back to the early days of 1996, when there was a second Crow film staring Vincent Perez and we all thought Rob Zombie was about to make his own Crow film. How time flies!
