March 18, 2010 2:09 pm In sort of similar news, did anyone else notice that DCBS broke Boom out from their "Other Comics" section to put alongside Marvel, DC, and the rest?
February 18, 2010 11:42 am I think it's interesting to see one of the big two make CCO an official position, especially since Johns has seemed to be DC's defacto CCO for a couple of years now. I wonder if Marvel will make Bendis CCO in the wake of this announcement.
Personally, I've never cared for Spidey or Wolverine as Avengers, but I'd be completely down for Luke Cage and Iron Fist to be on the team and maybe She-Hulk.
I just hope Ken Hayle isn't an Avenger. I love him Agents of Atlas and would rather see him there (and the agents back in their own book, please). Besides, I don't know if I could handle a gorilla with a human brain on both the Avengers and the JLA.
I'm usually pretty hesitant to buy trades of stuff I already have in singles, but this may be the rare exception.
I'm a pretty big Superman fan, but I feel like great Superman stories are few and far between. That said, All-Star Superman was easily the best take on the character I've read since Alan Moore's Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow and For the Man Who Has Everything.
I'm with TheNextChampion, nothing is sacred. Regardless of how good or terrible a Watchmen sequel/prequel would be, it won't alter the original in any way.
Plus, I see this as a win/win opportunity. Either DC gets top name talent to do some great new stories or we end up with something terrible, which would also be kind of awesome. Seriously, a Greg Land/Jeph Loeb Watchmen sounds so amazingly terrible that I have to see it.
Besides, non-Moore Watchmen is hardly unprecedented. After all, not only are all of the characters thinly veiled Charlton analogs, Rorshach toatlly appeared in a couple of issues of O'Neill's Question (admittedly in a dream sequence, but still...).

Congratulations, guys.
I, for one, am thrilled to see comic book podcasting take this important step forward.
