	As you no doubt know by now, the latest issue of CBG proclaims that
Byrne has indeed left Marvel. No explanation for the move has been given
by Byrne (although reading between the lines on one of the responses to
a letter in the same issue indicates that both O'Neal and Byrne may have
been unhappy with the way they were being treated at Marvel). Byrne is
working on a proposal for an adaptation of a science fiction book for
Warp (title not given), in addition to his much publicized efforts for Superman.
