February 1, 2012 8:47 pm That's one of the cool things about this project: if you think these stories are unnecessary and not interesting, let DC know but not reading them and by not buying them, and just re-read the original 12 issues again. And if you're someone who wanted to read more stories set in the Watchmen-verse, then pick up the titles that look good to you. It's not like DC comics is going to Moore's house and shooting his dog, or forcing everyone who ever read Watchmen to buy or read ANY of these books. I don't understand all of the stress and consternation over this commercial decision. It's just another product and set of stories that you can choose to read, or not. What's the big deal?

January 27, 2012 8:30 pm And I think Geoff was swiping anatomy from Heroes Reborn era Liefeld Captain America. Those pects are a little TOO well developed...

January 22, 2012 11:26 am The anatomy for Catwoman is slightly exaggerated to create the impression of fast and powerful movement in single panel in a way that I found visually impactful. Your description of the " flaws" in the image were exaggerated in a way that I found less compelling.

October 18, 2011 8:06 pm Every six weeks = not monthly (e.g. Less than 12 issues/year). I guess if you're Jim Lee you can fail to deliver monthly and not get fired. I've never believed that hypocrisy was a good management style.

September 6, 2011 11:20 pm I'm more interested in knowing if they plan to release these digitally!

September 2, 2011 3:07 am I was intrigued by how he was illustrated; he doesn't appear in any recognizable costume. And Gambit wasn't contemporaneous with the Champions. By the time he came on the scene the Champions had broken up and the members had moved on to the Defenders and the Avengers and perhaps the Soviet super team. So I suspect that there wouldn't have been a story placing those characters together. Very strange.

August 31, 2011 8:28 pm So I guess that when George Tuska plotted and drew this story that extra guy wasn't really Gambit, but we'll never know who he was supposed to be? And now the headliner for the story is Gambit, who probably wasn't really in the story at all... Interesting!

August 10, 2011 8:28 pm Marvel released this day-and-date digitally for $2.99! Interesting!

August 3, 2011 2:27 am @abstractgeek I'm sure that I don't see this as a matter of moral right and wrong as you put it, where, in your view, Steve Bisette is defending "right"and therefore by extension anyone with a contrary view is taking the side of "wrong." As a simple matter of fact, the courts found that as a matter of law the Kirby family's claims were legally unsupportable and therefore legally speaking "wrong." Evanier's testimony is necessarily heresay as he can't be sufficiently cross examined or probed since he's only repeating what he told versus telling what he knows to be true. That's not my wrong opinion, it's just the fact of the matter. And to say that the people at marvel today didn't create the characters is true, but the current value of the characters commercially has more to do with recent business activities than it does with Jack Kirby. And certainly his heirs have done nothing to increase the commercial value of these properties. Without Marvel's investments, Kirby's ideas would still be just that; ideas. To suggest that Marvel hasn't established their equity in these ideas is very simplistic.

August 1, 2011 11:14 pm And one other point; why did the Kirby's lose this case? Because they were right and Marvel was wrong but the whole justice system conspired to screw them? Or maybe they lost because, as a simple matter of law, they were seeking something to which they simply aren't entitled? In which case, the suggested boycott would also be unfair to Marvel, as a matter of fact.
