  I read the same  Epic  issue  of  "Starstruck",  but I was  under  the
  impression that Elaine Lee and Mw Kaluta's creations would be featured
  under their own title called "The  Adventures  Of Brucilla the Muscle,
  Galatic  Girl  Guide"  (or   something  to  that  effect).  I  assumed
  (possibly   incorrectly)  that  the  reason  Ms.  Lee  mentioned  "The
  Rocketeer"  was because she couldn't  explicitly  name the  competitor
  which  she was  defecting  to (in this  case,  her  reference  to "The
  Rocketeer"  was  a  pointer  to  ECLIPSE  Comics).  This  seems  quite
  reasonable  in view of the  tyranny  that Jim  Shooter  has held  over
  Marvel Comics.

  Also, Dave Stevens is a notoriously slow worker -- which is fine by me
  as long as he keeps the quality in his work.  This is  reminiscent  of
  Neal  Adams  (who  supposedly  could  never  keep a  deadline,  and is
  carrying on the tradition with his own line of comics from  CONTINUITY
  Associates),  so I wouldn't  expect a "Rocketeer"  issue to appear for
  quite some time...

  And lastly, I was  reading an issue of "Guitar  Player  Magazine"  and
  noticed that an advertisement for some type of digital sampling system
  (I can't  remember what brand it was off the top of my head) was drawn
  by none other than Dave Stevens!
