Now he has popped up at Dynamite Entertainment as editor, working on the new Project Superpowers series. Which might be how he managed to get Doomsday Clock artist Gary Frank and Scott Kolins to do covers. He joins other former DC editorial names from the DC Bloodbath such as Vince Letterio and Jim Sokolowski who have joined Dynamite of late. While Adam Philips is working as freelance marketing for them. It's a DC Burbank reunion back on the East Coast.
