CNN...Threat or Menace?
In December 2006, William Bazillion announced his expedition to the Arctic, with the intention of recovering some long-missing Nazi gold. By the spring of 2007, William and his crew set forth for Svalbard, the site of the Doomsday Seed Vault.

Tom Spurgeon of The Comics Reporter mentioned my plight today (Sunday, March 2), so maybe CNN will pick up the story and issue me an apology.

Or a royalty check.
