It was an Inhumans limited series that WAS published after all, but Marvel kicked him out (note that the very CONCEPT of the limited series was Ladronn's!) because he got late (not "Ultimates" late, more like a couple of months late) and another artist drew the last issue of the mini. Ladronn did't like that at all, but it was just one of the many things Marvel did to him. The mini has just been released in TPB. Look for it! Best, Hunter (Pedro Bouça) More complicated than that.

I seem to recall that from around the start of the (brrr!) Claremont run, yet it never showed or was a non-starter. Wasn't he going to do a Fantastic Four thing, and that got pulled as well?

Marvel treated him like trash while he was there (the junking of the mentioned unpublished Silver Surfer story that he had already worked a lot on is a prime example) and now he has projects for the french Humanoids and lots of cover work. More money, less hassle. Jean-Marc L'Officier wrote about the way Ladronn was treated at the time. You might find more about it on his website.

I wish Ladronn would be back on a mainstream title - something with a retro-feel, obviously. I tried to read Hip Flask and Elephantmen and I failed.
