How the world would be different...<br /><br />Schenkar mentions some of the same titles as Wilson and also reports that Highsmith wanted to work on Wonder Woman (makes sense) but was always denied the job. And when Highsmith spoke about working in comics, she often mentioned Batman and Superman - though from what I make of it, she didn't work on those two.<br /><br />The Schenkar book is wonderful but as an editor, it might give you fits.Book Gluttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14569975755798562829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5448581132479481740.post-18985262122175361332011-06-14T08:24:57.860-04:002011-06-14T08:24:57.860-04:00Wow, now there's a match made in hell!

Apparently neither was interested so the date never happened. Also, Highsmith apparently removed almost every scrap of paper from her archives - which Schenkar had access to - of her work in comics.Book Gluttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14569975755798562829noreply@blogger.com
