DC Announces Full Slate of New Creative Teams & New Book For Green Lantern Family
February 20, 2013 4:28 pm I haven't read much from the writers presented except for Mr. Giffen.
I currently subscribe to all of the Green/Red Lantern comics and they are good stories.
Having new writers come on board is a good chance to have new and interesting stories.
I want new and a little bit different.
I plan on giving the new writers/artists the opportunity to wow me.
I look forward to each of these books.

Matt Fraction Thinks Comics Can Do Better
February 1, 2013 9:49 am Comics need good marketing and PR in order to get new readers.
People will argue that you need better stories/art to attract new readers.
I disagree. You need better stories/art to keep new readers.
You need fantastic marketing and promotion to make new readers aware of, not just comics in general, but individual titles and/or features and apps.
Marvel and Comixology could promote their digital services through TV ads.
There could be an Adventure Time comic commercial played during the Adventure Time TV time slot.
Any TV show that uses comics book characters has the potential to direct it's viewers to the original source.
As for local comic book shops, they need to promote their respective stores. Let Marvel, DC, Image, etc make the consumers aware of the product, while the shop owners make the consumers aware of their stores.
Before I moved out of state, my old LCB store went to every major comic book movie opening and handed out flyers promoting the characters and their store with special sales. They also promoted the hell out of Free Comic Book Day and other special events.

Matt Fraction Thinks Comics Can Do Better
February 1, 2013 9:26 am Those are some very real points that AmirCat made. Every so often, my friends,who normally doesn't read comics, will go to the local comic book shop with me. I've seen a few of them browse the new issues and get really excited over a comic (because of it's cover), pick it up, flip through it, and put it back down with a "meh" attitude.
There is a saying, "Don't judge a book by it's cover." There is a reason why it's a common saying.

Interview: R.J. Ryan and David Marquez on THE JOYNERS IN 3D (Part 2)
January 17, 2013 2:07 pm It sounds cool but honestly? The red/blue 3D glasses give me a headache. I can't wear them for more than a minute.

Avengers Arena in: The Case of the Magic List
January 14, 2013 3:34 pm I'll admit it.
I've never read Runaways, Young Avengers, Avengers Academy or any of those comics that has the younger hero generation.
I picked up Avengers Arena because I'm intrigued on how Marvel will handle this kind of book/idea.
The only characters that I'm familiar with is Darkhawk, X-23, and Arcade.
When I heard about the concept, I immediately thought that X-23 will win. How can she not? Doesn't she have a healing factor as well? I'm interested to see how the writer will make her lose.
So far, it has been a good book and I'll continue to buy it as long as it stays good.
