''Liberty Meadows'' is a comic strip and comic book created, written and illustrated by Frank Cho. It relates the comedic activities of the staff and denizens of the eponymous animal sanctuary/rehabilitation clinic. ==Publication history== ''Liberty Meadows'' is the evolution of ''University²'' (University Squared), a strip Cho wrote during his college years for ''The Diamondback'', the student newspaper at the University of Maryland, College Park. Originally, it was syndicated and appeared in many newspapers, while also being collected in comic books produced by Insight Studios. At the end of 2001, Cho ceased syndication, partly because editors kept censoring it, and announced he would publish it directly in comic book format. Cho self-published the comic book at first, with Image Comics taking over printing and distribution with issue #27. The comic book went on a hiatus in early 2004, after issue #36. June 2006 saw the publication of issue #37, and Cho commented at the time that he would be "trying to have couple of issues of ''Liberty Meadows'' out per year". Issue #37 was the first issue that did not contain material previously published in newspapers and is the last issue published to date. From around 2008 until May 2011, the rights to ''Liberty Meadows'' were in the hands of Sony Pictures Digital which wanted to develop it as a downloadable series, and then Sony Pictures Television which wanted to develop it as an animated television series. After a change in executives at Sony the projects went inactive, and the rights reverted to Cho, who in May 2011 announced plans to publish issue #38. On February 5, 2012 Frank Cho stated that work on ''Liberty Meadows'' had effectively stopped due to other commitments. "I thought I could do ''Liberty Meadows'' and my Marvel and outside work but I can’t. I have a mortgage and child support that I have to pay each month. As much as I want to do ''Liberty Meadows'' (believe me I want to), the other jobs pay better". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Liberty Meadows」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
