Is Peter Repovski returning to DFG? "That's what it looks like," said DFG enthusiast Javier Santamotzarello who snapped this photo of the superstar inker shaking hands with DFG president and co-publisher Dan Graves, at Repovski's booth at the Toronto Fan Expo.

"Let's just say that Pete and I go back a long way, and it was just nice to see an old friend again... and one who is doing so well in the industry, at that," commented Mr. Graves. But when pressed about Repovski's possible return to DFG, Mr. Graves added, "I really can't comment on that at this time. It is true that Pete has some of my pencilled artwork which he is intending to ink for a future issue of Spy Comics, but I really can't talk about other future plans between DFG and Repovski. Certainly no deall has been signed at present and Pete is very busy working on other projects, presently. My hope is that he will have something for us in the near future. I promise that I will keep you updated with future developments."

Peter Repovski, the creator of Nitro: The Man with the TNT Punch contributed widely to DFG Comics in the mid-1980's with his own Nitro title as well as several other projects. He is widely known as the "Godzilla of the Comics Industry," because of his gigantic status amongst professionals. Mr. Graves and Mr. Repovski were present at the show with DFG Vice President and Co-Publisher Darryl Andrews, signing copies of the recently released Spy Classics #3, an previously unpublished collaboration from 1996.

When asked about Dan's interpretation of Nitro in the recent Spy Comics Presents title, Mr. Repovski simply replied, "LOL."
