Graphic novel news

Titan Books is busy on both sides of the Atlantic in August, with a flurry of books. Transformers: Second Generation collects more of Simon Furman's UK comics; Top Traitor, the third Modesty Blaise book, reprints the classic sixties London Evening Standard strip (here's an interview with creator Peter O'Donnell); while Writers on Comics Script Writing Volume 2 promises to do exactly what it says on the cover, with contributions from such Grovel faves as Brian Azzarello, Ed Brubaker, Peter Milligan, Mark Millar, Kevin Smith and Bill Willingham.
