February 3, 2012 2:25 pm This would be so much better if the original creators were involved, like Frank Miller's DK2. Uh, wait a second...

February 1, 2012 10:40 pm DC's next big thing: Todd McFarlane writes & draws: Sandman Origins, telling why Dream was weakened prior to Sandman #1.

February 1, 2012 10:10 pm Phillip Jose Farmer was as mad as Moore himself.

January 31, 2012 10:24 pm My theory for why the settlement is sealed: Neil Gaiman settled for a Barry Bonds home run baseball and 25 CGC 10.0 copies of Spawn #8, signed by Alan Moore. Some orphans will be very unhappy when they get their donation.

January 20, 2012 1:48 pm I asked Gene Ha for a baby in a spacesuit. The rest was his idea.

October 19, 2011 11:15 pm ASM was relaunched at least once and then went back to the original numbering later, much like Captain America & Bucky(currently in the 600s but that book didn't exist a year ago).

September 28, 2011 4:24 pm Can't wait to pick this up for a digital discount next month. I think the real test of the "New 52" will be the first event, or, hopefully, lack thereof. Flashpoint, for good or ill, totally destroyed the last Flash series with its setup.

September 16, 2011 10:37 pm Only buy creator owned comics. I bet this poor Kirkman fellow didn't get a dime out of this after his tiny initial paycheck.

September 6, 2011 10:13 pm Yanick Paquette is great, but when is Francovilla on this book? Francovilla & Snyder were awesome on Tec.

September 2, 2011 3:05 pm I have 5 local shops. One carries only enough comics to be annoying(if it's not a top seller, they don't have it), but they seem to make up for it with sports cards and used DVD/video game sales. Another shop told me they make more $$ each week from Yu-Gi-Oh than anything else put together. They have tournaments almost every night for some game or another. The third shop is a dark cavern of long boxes & anime posters, but they seem to order EVERY SINGLE BOOK, so if a surprise gem comes out you can be sure they probably ordered at least a couple of them. The 4th shop has a decent selection but is also packed to the gills with toys & the guys running it just aren't friendly. The final shop is the most beautiful location, but they carry the smallest of possible selections, and rarely have more than 1 of any book unless you ordered it. In every case, my likely-hood to shop at a store is determined mainly by how friendly(or just not-dumb) the staff is and the quality of their book selection. I don't order books, because I rarely know if I'm going to be able to afford a book 3 months in advance, so I depend upon them ordering a good selection of what I like.
