3. Maximum Fantastic Four (Hardcover)
    Comics expert Mark Evanier contributes an essay on the early days of 
Marvel.

4. Comic Book Artist Vol. 2 #6
    The issue that was supposed to be Sergio's issue (but got bumped to a
    Will Eisner issue) is available now.  I don't think Sergio has anything 
in it,
    but I think Mark has a tribute.  At this year's San Diego Comic Con, Jon
    Cooke said that he still plans to have an issue on Sergio.

5. Classic Comic Book Characters #6 Groo Statue
    Release date has been bumped to June 14, 2006.  Limited to 550.  So, if
    everyone on the mailing each buys 2 statues, we could have them all!!!

6. George -- thank you for the card!  Glad you and your family had a good 
2005.

7. King Kong is more amazing than the Amazing Spider-Man, more fantastic
    than the Fantastic Four, more incredible than the Incredible Hulk, ...
    It's simply the most visually spectacular movie, filled with non-stop 
danger
    at every turn.  It's 3 hours 7 minutes long, but you can't take a break 
to
    a get another bag of popcorn without missing a crucial part of the 
story.
    Borders has the KK production diaries on sale right now for $29.99.

8. There was also a Usagi Yojimbo baseball cap.
