Btw - is there any reason I can't access this board from my Sympatico account? When I try, it just hangs at the background. Someone mentioned that all Sympatico was blocked...

I seem to remeber a Title Withheld "hint" that you had working on the team for another company. Would this be that reference?

In many ways that "hint" was the biggest giveaway as somebody immediately got it and mentioned these covers.

That immediately ruled out just about everything else except that it was a reference to The Fantastic Four / Challengers of the Unknown. Of course plenty of people still ignored the clue and came up with their own guesses.

As soon as this clue was given out, I was 99.9% certain I knew what TW was going to be.

That hint confused me even more! I thought he was meaning Dracula since he worked on Dracula at M***** and Dracula is not a property of any comic book company.

You just made the same mistake I and someone else made recently. Johns first published work for Marvel was in Giant Sized Dracula but it was a backup story that did not feature Dracula! John has I believe never published a Dracula story!
