From an interview with Dark Horse publisher, Mike Richardson (http://www.comicbookresources.com/news/newsitem.cgi?id=5790):

"We just acquired the rights to - and you'll be the first to know - 'Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser,' (by Fritz Leiber) which fantasy fans will know. He's been out of print for some time," Richardson said.

Hopefully they'll build a line, like they have with Conan, offering both reprints, and new adaptations/adventures.

That is good news. Maybe they will also reprint the Chyakin/Mignola adaptions that came out from EPIC like they reprinted the Marvel Conan.

Great news ... guess I'd better start saving my mad money for this.

This is great news. S&S comics are really undergoing a big revival at the moment. The new Red Sonja series has sold out, and went straight into the sales ranks at #17.

^There's a bunch of new S&S comics coming from WildStorm, too. I'm particularly excited about these, because WildStorm is one of the best companies out there.

This is great news, but dammit, I should be writing that comic.

What S&S comics is WildStorm putting out?

^They've got a whole line in the works, most of it unannounced as yet. I'll keep you updated.

This is good news indeed. I just started getting into Fritz Leiber recently. Dark Horse should do a nice job. They usually do.
