He wants to be a freelance writer and stay-at-home dad. Sooo... No more Andy Schmidt on Omega Flight I guess. Whether that bodes good or bad I don't know. I'm guessing bad.

thats 2 omega has lost.

maybe the next one will be a old school alpha fan that wants a true original re-launch.

or maybe he loves omega and wants to see the series continue.

*shrugs* who knows.

Could be Joe Q and Tom aren't getting along with some, maybe, though I doubt that. OF fans lost Andy and before that it was Mike Martz, who make no bones about being an AF-OF ongoing supporter.

In an interview I conducted with him about OF going mini:


[Schmidt, Andy] Actually, yes. I’m an ALPHA FLIGHT fan myself, so I knew how I felt when it came up for discussion. I totally understand that reaction, but on the other hand, I’m also aware that I’m personally better suited to build a limited series than an ongoing.

Better suited to a limited series than an ongoing...Hurm...Oeming in Canada for a celebration of sorts...Hurm...My inner Rorschach is telling me we could be getting some good news soon.

Do we know if Oeming is making an appearance at Wizard Philly or Heroes Con?

There was an online video interview with Oeming on the Wizard site while he was in Philly. He hinted at nothing.

Didnt notice it was that old. They posted that on their site only a few days ago.

...while Daniel Ketchum was the Assistant Editor for #'s 1 and 2. Don't know if this makes much difference, but there is a noticable out-of-syncness in # 3 that wasn't as evident in #'s 1 and 2.
