Babylon 5 creator
J. Michael Straczynski told fans on a message board that he’s working on a follow-up to the popular
SF series, according to a report on the Dark
Horizons Web site. Straczynski remained coy about the
project, saying only that he’d have more news next month.
—New Babylon 5 project? (Sci-Fi Wire)
I haven’t really followed any TV show since B5 ended its run. JMS has said numerous times that he was going to wait until after the Star Wars series was complete, so that he could build upon all the new technology that would be developed.
I’m personally hoping to see the Telepath War (which was clearly set up in the original TV series, alluded to in the short-lived follow-up Crusade, and firmly established as part of the B5 timeline in various books, some of which at one time in the past I actually had time to read). I’d love to see the return of Walter Koenig as the so-evil-you-love-to-watch-him Bester.

I think there are still a handful of Crusades I haven't seen. Part of me wants to know there is more of the B5 world left to explore. Yes, of course, there are plenty of books and comics, so my appetite has lots of fodder, should I ever have the time. My wife tells me of a professor she had who was a Jane Austen scholar, but who deliberately avoided reading one particular Austen novel, so that he would have something to look forward to when he was old and retired and had nothing else to live for -- he would one day treat himself to reading that last book. Very romantic.
Dennis,
I'd love see Crusade revived. I loved that extension. Great characters. Great promise to the arc. Straczynski's comics didn't really work for me.
