So, the newscaster on page six: was that a lighthearted poke at DC (who, you 
know, will publish the B5 graphic novel unless *that's* in the crapper), or 
was it related to the unpleasantness many of us believe is occuring between 
you and WB over TMoS and over what has definitely occurred with the Crusade 
DVDs?

Or maybe we should stop asking so many questions...

No, there was no relationship there.  I wrote that scene the same day I heard
about an arc from DC called Absolute Power that looked like it was trying to
co-opt some of what I was doing with Supreme Power, right down to the title, so
I poked back.
