Just noticed something peculiar the other day, and thought
you Elementals fans would be interested.  I picked up an
AD&D module recently that I had played about 2 years
ago ("White Plume Mountain"--S3, I think) and noticed that
some of the interior art, as well as the back cover, is by
Bill Willingham.  Will wonders never cease...(hope not!)

Also, I heard from my (off-net) brother an interesting thing
Jackson Guice had said in the latest Comics Interview.  Apparantly,
Guice claimed Bob Layton had several issues of X-Factor plotted out
with an entirely different storyline (NO Jean Grey), when John
Byrne (of all people) approached Shooter with the idea of bringing
back Jean/Marvel Girl.  I find this sorta hard to believe of Byrne,
unless what he meant was to introduce a *new* Marvel Girl, and ol'
Jimmy boy butchered the idea in typical fashion.  Can anyone confirm 
this?
