First of all: Thanks guys! We have Nellie Bly already teed up, and will add the others to the mix. I am 60-40 for doing Lucifer, because I also find it interesting. But I need to ask: Would it seem weird for us to tweet about a character in a much-hyped new TV show? I'm asking.

Just because it was a bit confusing :) Maybe because you say "writer" which is true, but doesn't translate well to his creation of a comic book character.

So this is a bit US centric since it came to my attention because of an ad for a new tv show https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucifer_(TV_series) starting tomorrow(and some may feel not it's mean to Bowie, though I don't really think so) but I found the fact about the comic it's based on so entertaining that I wanted to share given all of the context.
