Paul Pope's BATTLING BOY

Yes, yes, yes, the rumors are true: Paul Pope is working on a massive, epic project for First Second -- in full color and for young readers.

Here's a quote from Pope in this week's PUBLISHER'S WEEKLY COMICS WEEK, just to whet a few appetites:

Battling Boy is aimed at kids and it's coming out from First Second in 2007. It's a kind of a fairytale kid Beowulf, or a Peter Pan with teeth. It's set in a mythical city called Monstropolis, a city the size of a continent that's overrun with monsters.

I am a huge Paul Pope fan and I'm really excited about Battling Boy. Any chance of any more teaser images/information from this project?
