Ha! That page with the Punisher is hilarious!
ok i was on the fence but that punisher page sold me. awesome cover too, love the logo
haha, agreed on the Punisher page. I was laughing just at the way he looks typing on a computer, then reading the captions made it so much better.
I was already planning on picking this up. Very excited for the book.
Yeah, I’m pretty excited for this series. I’m certainly picking this up. I’m such a sucker for anthologies.
Any idea who did the first preview image? I kind of have to have to have a print of that.
@RickyStardust – That’s Colleen Coover.
Thanks Paul.
Love that Punisher page. You think he has to do that often? Or how about the first time he had to pretend he was a little girl?
Strange Tales was an amazing anthology and this has the potential to be too. Not sure if I wanna pick this up in issues or in trade yet….But this interview definitely peeks my interest.
hmmm. I don’t think I’ll be missing much by not picking this up.
ohh, Marvel and their gimmicks.
I know one things for sure: it’s gonna be ironic when I walk up to the checker-girl with a bunch of these issues and Girl Comics #1 in the middle of my pile. Being the comedian I think I’ll just own up to it and joke about it a little. It’s not a big deal but it’d certainly raise my eyebrow if I were in her shoes.
Are these preview pages from the first issue of girl comics?
I’m mostly interested in the rescue one-shot.
