Ellison Versus Fantagraphics Update

An update on the last post. According to the comics gossip column Lying in the Gutters, Fantagraphics and Ellison are going into mediation, so with a little luck this case won't drag on much longer. From here:

"I understand that both Fantagraphics and Harlan Ellison were asked if they would participate in mediation over their current legal confrontation and that both have, at this time, gladly agreed. This will occur on May 29th at the Federal District Court Of Appeals in California. It will be attended by Ellison, Groth and their respective legal representatives."
