Last night, I also did a talk via Skype with Tim Young of Deconstructing Comics about the book, and the podcast should be live sometime in the next couple of weeks; check back here for the announcement. You can listen in the meantime to a previous talk done while the book was still in progress in 2011, which also goes into the relation of theatre and comics, here.
Be sure to buy your copy at Amazon or Createspace now! As mentioned many times, don't wait for it to arrive in your local comics store, because it's not going to be there.
Also, if you happened to miss the awesome things the famous HELLBLAZER and OUTLAW NATION writer Jamie Delano wrote about the book, have a look here for both quotes and a link to the entire piece he wrote. As well as glowing quotes from Martin Pasko and Steve Pugh. By the way, with Delano and Pugh, that makes two of the best creators on ANIMAL MAN (in Pugh's case a present one as well) who love this book. You will too!
It never even occurred to me you were using a digital font on this. The Sim influence really comes through, and I'd say you're doing his lettering justice.
(Your lettering is the only thing I can find to comment about in this interview, because everything else in the interview speaks for itself!)
