Interview with Scott Snyder - Barnstormers, Dudley Datson, and The Forever Machine, and Canary - July 19

• Last year you launched We Have Demons,’ Night of the Ghoul,’ and ‘Clear for "Scottober" and this year we have Barnstormers, Canary, and Dudley Datson and the Forever Machine...has ComiXology come up with a "Scottsummer" slogan? What would we call this launch?
• Originally announced as an 8-series deal, when might we see Duck and Cover and Book of Evil?
• From a creation standpoint, have these series been completed for a while or are they still being finalized?
• The first three titles were clearly leaning towards horror and monsters, where are you going genre wise with these three new titles?
• 6 degrees of kevin bacon
• Dudley Datson and Clear both introduced some wild technology that I could see become a reality, in another life would you be an inventor?
• I love that you're reminding folks of the idea of  Barnstorming, which I think only Tom Cruise is doing these days but I could be wrong. What fascinates you about this American cultural phenomenon?
