That's the word from Newsarama at least! I gotta admit, I'm pretty jazzed about this one!
Thanks to Newsarama for the info!
1) Though not confirmed on Wizard’s own website, Newsarama has learned that, pending last minute schedule changes, Frank Miller will be a guest of honor at WizardWorld: Chicago August 4th – 7th. The move marks what may be the apparent end of an extended chilly period between Miller and Wizard, dating back to 2001 when he tore up a copy of Wizard at the Harvey Awards ceremony at the Pittsburgh Comicon. Since that incident, Wizard, which had formerly covered Miller and his works relatively extensively (even producing a Sin City #1/2 issue), rarely, if ever covered Miller. As Newsarama has been told, overtures were made by various third parties over the years, but demands for formal written apologies most often killed the chances at reconciliation.
The distance between the parties was seen most clearly with the magazine’s cursory (if that much) coverage of the Sin City film during the course of its production. While the details on what got the two parties talking again aren’t fully known, speculation leans on the strained Miller-Wizard relationship as being an untenable position in light of the marketing and publicity push Wizard could afford July’s All-Star Batman & Robin: The Boy Wonder, written by Miller.
