The A.D.D. graphic novel written by Douglas Rushkoff, pencilled byGoran Sudzuka and inked by Goran and myself was announced a few weeks ago. Here’s the info from Vertigo/DC Comics’ website…

A.D.D.

Written by DOUGLAS RUSHKOFF; Art and cover by GORAN SUDZUKA and JOSE MARZAN JR.

The Adolescent Demo Division are the world’s luckiest teen gamers. Raised from birth to test media, appear on reality TV and enjoy the fruits of corporate culture, the squad develop special abilities that make them the envy of the world – and a grave concern to their keepers.

One by one, they “graduate” to new levels that are not what they seem. But their heightened abilities can only take them so far as the ultimate search for their birth families leads to an inconceivably harrowing discovery.

Written by Douglas Rushkoff, world-renowned media theorist, Frontline TV correspondent and author (Ecstasy Club, Media Virus and Program or Be Programmed, TESTAMENT), with full color art by Goran Sudzuka and Jose Marzan Jr. (Y: THE LAST MAN).
