We're EXTREMELY excited about this project, especially Steve's new story and Joe's new story (which I honestly think might be his best story to date!).

Bev and Steve did an amazing job putting this book together and we cannot wait to share it with everyone!

So excited to get this! Can it be September?

What's the limitation on the artist edition?

No, Jeff! It can't be September! I want my summer first!

Pretty sure it's 1/1. My copy.

Honestly -- and I hate saying this -- I'm not that excited by this project. I'll probably be in the minority, which is good, since I wish CD the best with this.

But the reason I am somewhat negative is because I would have rather seen all new stories. I like that King/Hill have new tales, but I'm not really up for the reprints. I get that this will be an easy generator of cash, and that the margin is probably more beneficial if reprints are utilized, but I'd have preferred new, modern concepts from authors we don't often see.

I'll wait for the next story collection from King...

I LOVE the idea of a book of original airplane horror stories. Maybe that's what Bev and Steve should do for 2019... Flight or Fright 2: Die High in the Skies Tonight! Okay, so maybe the subtitle needs a little work...

I'm in the minority as well as the new Hill story is the draw for me. Not sure I would have ordered it only for the King story.

How about FlightS or FrightS?

How about FlightS or FrightS?

Hmmmm, I'm thinking The Red Eye: Terror at 35,000 Feet.

any details how many artist editions, and if there is an artwork for each story?

I believe 1000 for the print run and there will be artwork for each story!

WooHoo!!!!!!

Umm this might be too soon, but maybe you can get François Vaillancourt to change the plane on the cover to be a Southwest Airlines plane. Considering what happened yesterday is probably the most terrifying thing I'd image you could experience on a plane and live to talk about.

I don't know what Cortney Skinner's cover will look like, so if she features a plane, please see the above suggestion.

I think there's probably some copyright / trademark infringement laws that that would be violating.

Cort Skinner is a friend of mine, and definitely a guy (just ask his wife Elizabeth Massie). I will pass on your suggestion.

DAMN! Sorry for making assumptions! And thank you for setting me straight! Also, please do NOT pass along my suggestion about making the plane look anything like a Southwest Airlines plane. Not that you were in any danger of doing that!
