Congrats!

 You guys deserve this. It's easy to see that you all are real passionate about comics. 

Keep on keepin' on!

Peace

January 29, 2010 7:07 pm Cool to know your into Brit Pop Ron. I like all kinds of music, brit pop is maybe my favourite. Oasis is my favourite band, too bad that in the US they never were succesfull as they were in Europe.
January 26, 2010 2:12 pm I think it's must've been fantastic to get your stuff out. It's great that Alex Robinson wanted to draw something for you. Congratulations.

USM have been really important as it made me a reader of comics. As a kid I've read some comics but that was like 10-15 years ago. Last summer I visited NYC, my first trip to the US (I'm from Amsterdam), and I fell in love with the big apple. You Americans should be really proud of the fact that New York is an American city, I've never been to a place that inspired me as much as NYC, in different ways. My interest in comics began when I visited Midtown comics at Times Square. I like the vibe over there, but didn't buy something (Now I hate myself for not buying anything, especially with the low dollar compared to the euro). Since that day I began to read stuff about comics on the internet and later I bought the fantastic Watchmen by Alan Moore at Central Park south, close to the Plaza Hotel. So Watchmen was the first comic I've read as an adult, but it was still just a one time thingy. With Ultimate Spider-Man I became hooked, a comic beast. It's like a whole new world has openend up to me. It was only natural to begin with Spidey as I always loved the cartoons. USM keeps me entertained, it's just fantastic. When I read it I forget everything else. Now I read many other comics, but USM was the comic that made me love comics. I loved this show, good work guys!

January 12, 2010 4:13 pm I think It's too bad that Sony, and this goes for all film companies, have too much control. Let the artists be creative! Sony already made it hard on Sam Raimi at the third Spidey and now they do it all over again. But this also bring new chances. If it's going to be about Peter Parker in high school then they should take a good look at Ultimate Spider-Man and the fantastic TV series The spectacular Spider-Man.

Certainly a great list for someone like me, just getting started reading comics. I just bought the first four Ultimate Spider-man SC and I couldn't stop reading. Actually I started to read Spider-Man after watching The Spectacular Spider-Man cartoons (I'm so hoping for a third season man).

Josh, I take your advice and about to start reading Sleeper and Y the last man.

 Keep up the good work!
