    What, they’re not trying to get big bucks for THE FLY??

  2. Lee Wochner Says:

    Even more importantly, what about “The Double Life of Private Strong”? (A title which would seem more relevant than ever in these days of the Defense of Marriage Act.)

    Those two titles were published by Archie Comics. The Kirby heirs might have a case with The Fly but I think Private Strong was based on The Shield, a character from the 40s. And now DC has the rights to both, don’t they? It’s all so confusing. It will be interesting to see what develops.
