June 27, 2009 6:20 pm look at the height of that monitor, it's like it was designed to be used like that.

June 17, 2009 1:29 am Spoiler alert:  in the final issue right before the "consumation" is about to begin, archie flips out and tries to kill veronica, forcing her to stab him in the neck with an arrow.... wait, what do you mean it's already been done?

June 3, 2009 12:09 am Well, i'm going to try out all of them for the first issue, probably won't continue on all 6 but with so many great ideas, characters, creators i'm sure at least a couple will gain a perch on my pull list.  If i had to guess? B&R and Streets of Gotham.  Maybe Detective depending on how much page-time Renee gets.

Thought i'd throw in a couple book club suggestions:

We3 would be a good self contained story, and it has a different feel than most of the previous suggestions.

or if your book club has read "The Dark Tower" books by Steven King you could transition them in with "Dark Tower: Gunslinger Born" i've gotten a few people in to comics with that series.

Wow, and i thought i had a collection... i think i've just been geek served.

And Not Pictured:  The Giant Penny, T-Rex, Costume Shrine, and the faithful English Butler who keeps them tidy.

Well i'll throw in my kudos for coming up with the contest, It's going to be really cool to see so many of the ifanbase indulge their creativity. I've got 3 pages of my script done so far and am jumping up and down with glee...which i should probably stop doing before my downstairs neighbors decide to assasinate me...(Sorry Mrs.  Beaz)

Ok this threads discussion of genre vs. non-genre is giving me serious Fiction 403 flashbacks. 

I agree   that comics are weighted towards genre, but i don't really mind; A. because i love genre fiction and B.  because the literary world is so heavily weighted against it.  If you walk into any literary circle with something that has even the faintest whiff of genre on it, the tweed jacket crowd falls all over themselves telling you how such works are childish and creatively bereft. Argue that Shakespeare produced many genre pieces all you want (as i have)  it doesn't change the general academic stigma. 

so i like having a format that contains an incredibly talented field of creators where genre is the favored son rather then the red-headed stepchild.

    

April 18, 2009 1:20 am i think the top voted books are all great (we the ifanbase have great taste)  but if i have to vote for one: SECRET SIX. It's currently my favorite "non-Geoff Johns" DC book.
