He says he's working to make sure that Outsiders fits with some kind of major continuity thing. (I personally just keep bugging him to put Steph in the book )
I don't think King's gonna kill anyone else, except maybe spoilers:end of spoilers. But even that - I don't think so. I do hope that if Steph appears in HiC, it's not the Gerads issue - I just don't have a great hankering to see a Gerads Steph.
