Cecil’s current effort is I Am The Comic Book. Cecil also wrote a story for EC Comic’s Cruel Universe #4 from Oni Press.

EC Comics’ Cruel Universe ponders “Only human arrogance would lead us to believe that we are alone in this vast universe. The real question is, who will find us first? Allies to help us grow and flourish as members of larger cosmic society? Or others who would use up the earth for its resources, enslave the human race, and destroy everything we know and love? Do we live in a limitless realm of possibilities, or a deep dark Cruel Universe? Cozy thoughts, aren’t they?”. Issue #4 features a “Peer Review” by Cecil Castellucci and Andrew Mutti a story about two scientists who have discovered life on a frozen moon in our solar system. Soon, they’re whisked off to an alien get-together, and things get stranger after that.
