I knew about the book, but that's the first time I've seen that video. It seems there will be more Bradbury graphic novels in the near future.

Thanks for the link, robnz.

Here's a link to a wonderful article about FAHRENHEIT 451, by acclaimed writer Alice Hoffman, which appears on the National Public Radio (NPR) website:

Here's a link to an interview with Ray about the FAHRENHEIT 451 graphic novel that appeared on USA Today's website. Sean Connery had always been my choice to play Beatty in a filmed re-make (and Ray's choice as well, according to the interview), but I must confess I never thought of Nicholas Cage as Montag.

Fanboy: Are you coming down for Ray's birthday party? It's two hours less of a drive than ComicC-on.

Hi jkt - sadly, I won't be, we are going to be on a family camping trip next week Frowner.

I have been coming to Los Angeles about once a month lately, to hang with my elderly mom, I have been hoping to make it to a book signing or perhaps a play, if my mom would like to go.

Assignation of a place in line is based on a first come first serve book purchase. If one were to buy a book now one would get a much lower number in line. One may order over the phone or via email:

The theatre is about six miles from the bookshop.
