Remember they had a poll where readers voted on which story idea they had would get turned into a short run of comics?
Not the one with the Lookouts and Jim Darkmagic, the other one?
Whatever came of that? That was..... *looks it up*.... http://www.penny-arcade.com/2010/10/27/
ten months ago, or near enough, and I don't think they mentioned it since. I know they're a busy crew, with Child's Play and PAX especially having taken up most of their time, but does anyone know if they've given any clues if/when we'll get to see the winner? I really wanted to see Sand....
Scroll to the bottom, and fortunately for you Sand was the winner.
IIRC, they later mention that the new kid was actually optioned for a movie (!) so we will likely see that one in some form or another sometime in the future.
I think they also mentioned later (I'm not going to go through the archives, someone else can do it...) that Sand was actually being written by someone relatively well known. There may or may not have been a discussion about it on halforums in fact...
It's going to take time before they actually have the results in hand.
