News from Tom Lyle on the Warlock mini-series. "The mini-series sold in the
vicinity of 30,000 for issue one and 20,000 and lower for the other three issues. Not
great, but not terrible in this market. Still not good enough to get an ongoing, though.
Not even really close."

Warlock No. 2 (of 4) (Creator) Tom Lyle, Robert Brown The perpetrator of last
issue's murder stands revealed and neither you nor Adam Warlock will believe your eyes!
Now the well-known killer must face Warlock in cosmic combat that will blow your mind and
melt your eyes right out of your sockets! But there's a more sinister scheme behind it
all, and the mastermind responsible strikes his first deadly blow against Adam and his
allies! The plot thickens in this second chapter of this scintillating space opera!

More info. from Warlock mini-series writer Tom Lyle.....
There are four villains "totaled" in the mini-series. One is gone by issue two
and is under the control of our main villain. He has never been a villain before and will
never again. The main villain defiles this man's legacy by this use. Our main villain is
SYPHONN. He resides in the negative zone and his plot involves WARLOCK by the use of the
first villain and who he kills. The other two villains are a secret and do not become a
factor until the end of issue three. Lots of mayhem in this series. No word yet on sales
for the mini (which are selling badly lately) and whether or not we might get a regular
book out of this. Take care- Tom Lyle

Warlock No. 1 (of 4) (Creator) Tom Lyle, Robert Jones After his travails in an alternate
universe, Adam Warlock has returned to familiar surrounding and friends on Saturn's moon
Titan, only to be drawn into a bizarre murder mystery! A longtime ally of Warlock has been
killed and it looks like the murder could only be the work of his former Infinity Watch
teammate, Drax the Destroyer! A disbelieving Adam decides the best thing to do is to hunt
down his long-absent other teammates: Gamora, the deadliest female assassin in the galaxy;
and the irreverent interstellar party animal, Pip the Troll! But perhaps even this reunion
of powerful friends may not be enough to stand against the power of Drax! And neither they
or you will be prepared for the shocking return of a Marvel character you thought you'd
never see again in a state you've never seen him in before!

More news about the story line from Lyle "Well, I've started issue two and
things are looking good. Adam and company are in pursuit of a cosmic serial murderer and
found much more than they ever thought they would. Genis is trying to figure out how to
live without his ... OOOPPPSS, too much. He's angry, anyway. Mentor is Mentor and Gamora
looks good. Pip is smoking cigars and being a smart alec as usual. Me? I'm having fun.
Thanks for the opportunity. Tom Lyle" and that is that.

A summary of the upcoming Warlock mini-series by Tom Lyle "Well, for those
who haven't been reading my postings all over the place as I try to become a one man
promotion team, here goes..... I am writing and drawing a four issue mini-series featuring
ADAM WARLOCK. It backtracks some and starts a new direction for our hero. The first issue
is scheduled to be released in September (the 23rd, to be exact) and will be monthly. I
would love for it to lead to a regular series, so if you like the book when it comes out,
get your friends to buy lots of copies. The mini-series will feature Drax, Gamora, Pip,
Genis (the new Captain Marvel), Elysius, Mentor, a new villain and one, big, huge surprise
guest (not Thanos.) There is no Infinity Watch. Warlock has regainded his soul gem. The
other gems are missing, possibly destroyed. I am trying to get WARLOCK back to a situation
inspired by and close to Jim Starlin's take on WARLOCK in the 70's. A loner who is
searching for his identity and a reason to be here. Enough for now." Thanks- Tom Lyle

News from Lyle, "The WARLOCK mini-series is now finally on the schedule and
I've already finished the plot to issue one. It will be a four issue mini-series written
and drawn by me and inked by Robert Jones. Issue one will ship on September 23, 1998.
Thanks- Tom Lyle"

More info. from Tom Lyle(Writter of upcoming Warlock mini-series) "I'm going
to tone down Warlock's powers a LOT. The Infinity stuff made all those characters too
powerful."
--February 19th 1998
Tom Lyle said "Well, I can say there is one HUGE surprise in store for
readers that is revealed by the end of issue one. The new villain is not the surprise and
I cannot say too much about him as that is the crux of the plot. I will say that this
story will involve the negative zone and some aspects of the two universes and how they
exist. I can also say that I will be going for a more traditional superhero/space hero
story than the INFINITY stuff ever was. That was too much fantasy. I will be ignoring the
other soul gems and the the island and many aspects of the last series (for now.)"
