My meetings with Wlliam F. Nolan

Over the past 4 months I have been meeting with William F. Nolan about the Logan's Run comic book series we are planning for January. He has come over to my house with Jason and Sunni who work with him. They have been great meetings talking about his vision for the relaunch of the series, from artwork to plot points. We usually get Paul Salamoff on the phone (the writer of the comic book series) and hammer it out a lot. These are pretty funny conversations sometimes. Jason and Bill have this amazing relationship and they bicker like brothers. We talk about the film Logan's Run and how Bill thought that Logan looked like he was running around in his pj's and how he hated that. You will see how the Sandman characters now are exactly how he envisioned them. Getting to know Bill over this while has been a great experience This is a man who has done so much in the industry and such a talent. I had no clue he used to do Disney comics, draw and write. We spoke about his life over dinner one night and I was amazed. He told me that he has the George Perez cover to the Marvel Comic's Logan's Run comic cover (which I am dying to see). I not only want to do Logan's Run because it is a good story, but I want to keep it going because the meetings are priceless.
