Unfortunately, it's not actually been announced that Zenith will be reprinted. What they said (I read a transcript on CBR or something) was that getting the legal issues sorted so it *can* be reprinted was a high priority of Rebellion. That doesn't mean it's a high priority for Morrison, or that there's any possible mutually-satisfactory resolution, just that one side wants there to be...
What makes the linked story even more tragic is that the source for it is... yep! The CBR article you mention.
Not terribly impressed with Digital Spy at all, actually. They even manage to quote the important line - "but editor Keith Richardson told CBR that a reprint was one of their top priorities" - yet interpret it horribly wrong. Muppets.
Peoples and Scott working together again? This fills me with all sorts of fanboy shivers.
I really hope the legal aspects of the Zenith copyright can get sorted out asap, coz this is a comic that needs to be seen by more people, and possibly also made into a movie. Or three.
Ridley Scott always worries me slightly, because my brain insists on confusing him with Mark Ridley, the genius writer of many books on evolution. Who, in turn, I confuse with Mark Ridley, the upper class twit who also writes on evolution, only much worse, and appears to be becoming a right-wing icon for running Northern Rock into the ground as Chair of the Board.
Just as well I don't confuse any of them with Nicholas Ridley.
Ah. I thought everyone who wasn't a cheerleader for his Optimism knew: I thought the standard ad hominem attack starts with snark about his track record of irrational optimism before descending in to class warfare.
