The Crow: Salvation will be showing this Monday, August 6^th at 11am EST/PST on the FX Cable Network.

Bryce Zabel, the executive producer of The Crow: Stairway To Heaven, has posted a new blog about his appearance last weekend at San Diego Comic Con. For those crow fans who enjoy a good cook book please check out The Hollywood Cookbook: Cooking For Causes put together by his wife and the wife of actor Don Most. There is even a few recipes contributed by Mark Dacascos in the cookbook.

Hey folks, some news NOT related to the upcoming STH release on DVD for you. Fellow fan John Thomas has put together a petition to get O’Barr to finish the long rumored, but never realized THE CROW “AUTHOR’S EDITION” graphic novel completed. This has long been mentioned by O’Barr himself as a work in progress but there has never seemed to be much in the way of progress. We have featured extra pages on ABaHB that would encompass such a re-release of the original graphic novel. Go out to the petition and sign it. Perhaps if O’Barr sees the interest is there he can find a publisher for it.

According to Boxoffice Mojo, THE CROW ranks 38th out of 70 feature films that have been based on comics/graphic novels. THE CROW: CITY OF ANGELS ranks 55th. For a while, THE CROW: CITY OF ANGELS had the largest weekend opening for a late August release with 9 million 787 thousand. THE CROW opened to over 11 million on May 13th, 1994. It ended up making just over 50 million domestically.

O’Barr will be featured with other artists this coming Saturday, Feb 24th, in Dallas at the Art Love Project . If you are in the area, be sure and swing by and give it a look.

Thanks to Frank and jamesobarr.com for the information.

Here are some updates that I wanted to pass on from CuervoMuerto over at Crowcoll. These were posted late November, so they are fairly recent.

James O’Barr has a MySpace now. Give it a look.

Speaking of James, his official site sponsored the annual Croween contest in 2006. I have not seen any updates on it, but keep checking there for announcement of winners.

Finally, for those that have not been able to find the CD for Trust/Obey’s “Fear and Bullets” (the soundtrack created to go a long with the original graphic novel) it’s on iTunes. Just search “Fear and Bullets” and you should find it pretty fast. If you search on Trust Obey you will have to wade through other non-related items.

I trust everyone has recovered from the New Years Eve hangovers and gotten back into the groove of things. Talk 2 ya later

Take care…..

Want to know what James has been up to? James contributed to “The Ride”. It looks to be a variation on the work he was doing for a new Crow story that featured a man and wife returning.
