Okay this story has created some controversy and I've tried to sort through some conflicting versions of events this week.  Just to recap, here's what happened:

1.  Eric posted a story.  I moved to the front page Tuesday evening.

2.  Many folks alerted me to a Comicon thread connected to the latest "Webhead" column, of which I was not previously aware, where Eric discussed this project in the context of a long discussion that included some rather pointed personal comments between individuals.  One way to read the Comicon thread is that Eric's Uncle Sam project is simply an elaborate put-on to continue "jokes" made in that thread.  This raised enough questions for me that I wanted additional confirmation of the story before leaving it on the front page of Comixpedia.

3.  Eric and I finally got in contact via email.  I asked for the name and contact information for the author and publisher. 

4.  Eric responded to assure me that it is a real project (in fact see Eric's LiveJournal for his response to Eric Burns) but that he is not able to release additional details to me at this time. 

This leaves me unable to report on this story.  I want to make clear though that I have no reason to doubt Eric after his reassurances to me and I'm willing to personally extend him the benefit of the doubt.

This, however, is not sufficient for Comixpedia to report on the story at this point.   Eric has suggested that he will be able to provide Comixpedia with additional details in the future and at that point I'll gladly revisit this story.
