    James Robinson has teased he has several projects in the works. Looks like another one has been revealed. Dynamite Entertainment is launching their San Diego Comic-Con announcements before the show starts. James will be writing a new series with Dynamite entitled GRAND PASSION.

    "I'm thrilled to be working with Nick Barrucci and Dynamite Entertainment on a series I think will surprise a lot of readers," James said. "Grand Passion is definitely a departure from what I've been doing in the last few years. This series is about two wayward characters Doc and Mabel -- one a cop, the other a crook -- who are fated to fall in love at first sight even as Mabel swears she'll kill Doc if it's the last thing she does. It marries elements of a Harlequin romance with hard-boiled crime and takes it off in a direction that's surprising, funny, violent, and sexy. I'm very excited to roll up my sleeves and immerse myself in writing this tale."

    James Robinson on a comic with elements of a Harlequin romance. This is going to be something to check out.

    No further information has been released, such as artist or release date. We'll have to wait for more details.

    @allstarsuperman: I don't know about the latter half of that assestment, but I wished he had stayed on Earth 2 as well.
