Joe was nominated for the Writers' Guild Of America Anthology Episode/Single Program Award for "The Strange Case Of Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde" (1989) in 1991. (edit) Joe won the Science Fiction And Fantasy Writers Of America Bradbury Award for Babylon 5 in 1999. (edit) Joe won 2 consecutive Hugo Awards, in 1996 and 1997, for Best Dramatic Presentation, for the Babylon 5 episodes "The Coming Of Shadows" and "Severed Dreams" respectively. (edit) Joe was to have written a screenplay in 1996 for the First Comics' character, Grimjack, but scheduling conflicts from his working on Babylon 5 at the time as well as the company's bankruptcy making the character rights unavailable forced him to shelve the project altogether. According to Joe the budger for the film version was to have been set around $30 million and that he would remain faithful to the original source material.
The character was revived by IDW Publishing in 2005 after the creators finally obtained the rights, but nothing has been stated about a screen adaptation as of this time. (edit) Joe has an asteroid discovered at the Kitt Peak National Observatory in 1992, named after him: 8379 Straczynski. (edit)

J. Michael Straczynski : Too many TV shows are about answers - easy answers that you get just before the last commercial. I wanted to do a TV show about questions - hard questions. Because knowing how to ask the right question is more important than getting the easy answer.
(edit) J. Michael Straczynski: On the Internet, inside information is currency, and there will always be counterfeiters among us. (edit)
