One of the questions I am frequently asked by people who have been reading comics for some time is "Do you remember a comic called Scud the Disposable Assassin?" To which I am always happy to reply thusly: "Oh totally! That book was great! What ever happened to it? I remember collecting every issue until one day, they just stopped coming." At which point the conversation dissolves into nitpicking nerdery about how it had ended. The reality was that Scud was set to end on issue 21, but after issue 20 was released, creator Rob Schrab's small Fireman Press went under due to rights conflicts. Then Schrab got caught up in TV and the rest is unwritten history. Unfortunately that left us readers wondering what would become of Scud, Drywall, Sussudio, Jeff, Voodoo Ben Franklin, and La Cosa Nostroid just to name few of the absolutely bizarre cast. Well our prayers have been answered by Rob Schrab himself who recently announced that he will be releasing the long awaited Scud finale! While no official release date has been announced, he has said on his website that he will try to include it in a huge collection of the entire series that will be available for the San Diego Comic-Con this year. I love shit like this, even if it is ten years late.
