Exclusive Preview: Meta 4 #3
Ted McKeever’s new miniseries is odd enough that it leaves his Eddy Current and Metropol-era work fro the ’80s and ’90s eating dust, oddness-wise, which is saying something.

If losing its director, its studio going into bankruptcy and unions going to war over whether or not the production would be biased to Australian actors wasn’t enough, now one of the effects houses that would’ve been used for The Hobbit has been seriously damaged in a fire.
