While I was off at San Diego Comic-Con International, an employee of the federal government delivered packages to me containing the following three publications:

The galley to John Joseph Adams’ reprint anthology The Living Dead, due out in a few months, which includes my Stoker-nominated tale “Almost the Last Story by Almost the Last Man,” originally published in Postscripts magazine.

The galley to Ellen Datlow, Kelly Link and Gavin Grant’s The Year’s Best Fantasy and Horror 2008, which includes my story “The Man He Had Been Before” from The Mammoth Book of Monsters on its Honorable Mentions list. (Thanks, guys!)

A copy of the August 2008 issue of Back Issue magazine, which includes a photo of me and an interview with me about an obscure story I wrote starring the X-Men character the Angel more than 30 years ago, which I’d earlier told you about here.

Remember to pick up copies of all three when they become available so that your collection of Edelman memorabilia remains complete!
