To be honest, I found this while folowing that link for casting of proposed live actin 'Simpsons ' film.

Benecio Del Toro....

Is the new WOLF-MAN!!

Looking at these pics... certainly shows that there has been some progress made since the days of the black and white original. Even the teen Wolf movies made during the mid eighties.

I have Bacchus in too many different versions (three of Immortality Isn't Forever alone!), I just can't justify another one, but my Alec is all over the place - DeeVee's, trades (one of which I only bought a few weeks ago, grrrr), reprints in the back of Bacchus etc.  

An omnibus must be mine!  If ever a body of work needed a good showcase, it's Alec.

No they've got plans for others after volume 3, I hope we live long enough to see them :)

It says third and probably final, that doesn't mean much of anything.

They have plans for other stories focusing on individual characters, I've read that in more than one place, including interviews with Alan Moore. Whether they ever get round to doing them is another matter, it's probably going to be 2010 before Volume 3 is finished.

Either way I would kill to see the rumble with Les Hommes Mysterieux.
