"Lost" look-forward

The Chicago Tribune's Maureen Ryan has a bunch of interesting stuff from the Comic Con convention in San Diego (is Con convention redundant?).

Highlights:

- More flash forwards next season
- Michael's back for the whole season, not as a guest star
- They still have no idea what to do about Nestor Carbonell's character, Richard (Nestor is starring in CBS' "Cane" and CBS isn't keen on letting him do walk-ons at another network). That's probably a bad thing.
- A few vague predictions about storylines - something with Ben, something with Libby, something with Rousseau
- The season finale with the Jack and Kate flash-forward isn't the end of the story.
