Seaguy’s coming back!
Quoth Grant Morrison (at Newsarama):
I’ve certainly got a bunch of new books coming out from Vertigo later this year – they’ve taken a while to write, because I’ve been busy with the movies and the DCU books, but you’ll be seeing some mad creator stuff pretty soon.
The first of the books, I’m happy to say, is the long-awaited ultra-violet, necrodelic…Seaguy 2: Slaves of Mickey Eye – Cameron Stewart has the first script, and maybe now that we’re getting to finish our story, people will finally understand what it was all about!
Quoth Cameron Stewart (at Barbelith):
Now that the cat’s out of the bag I’m guess I’m able to confirm that I do have the completed first script for Seaguy 2: Slaves of Mickey Eye, and it will be my next project after I finish The Apocalipstix in a few weeks (printing this summer – finally – from Oni Press).
As far as I know we’ll be doing Slaves of Mickey Eye and then immediately following it with Seaguy Eternal. Looks like all the waiting and good will finally paid off.
Quoth Bill Reed (at Comics Should Be Good):
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I couldn’t be more excited.
What say you?

Great news.
I know we should have trusted Morrison when he said he WOULD do it, but man, how many of y’all thought it would ACTUALLY happen?!
Awesome news.

I was kinda hoping for a Sebastian O sequel.
Or at least a second run of DOOM PATROL with Richard Case.

For once, the title is not hyperbole! Woo hoo!

Now the first part will finally make sense!
Not that it didn’t make sense before, but… it just kind of felt empty, you know? It was obvious Morrison wanted to do more with it.

I reread part one just yesterday, and it’s true: it’s not that it’s not good, but defenitely incomplete. It is by far the most mystifying Morrison work I own (and that’s sying quite a bit, eh?).
Can’t wait.

Did he mean ultra violent, rather than ultra violet?
Though, knowing Grant Morrison and his weirdy ways, there’s a good chance this isn’t a typo…

I’m excited and all, as I loved the first one, but I’ve never been desperate for a sequel – I thought it read pretty damn good on it’s own as a stand alone story.
Bit thrown by Morrison’s comment about people ‘finally understanding it’.
What was confusing about it?
You had to do a bit of thinking and bring some knowledge to the table, but it was much easier to get than say The Filth or The Invisible or Mystery Play.
I’ve still no idea about Mystery Play, but the other two I had to spend more time thinking on than Sea Guy.
Oh, and for the record, Sea Guy Rules, We3 Drools!

In the words of Shego(although she was much more sarcastic about it than I am), “Whoohoo, extra hoo!”
