April 10, 2013 4:02 pm I felt the same way, I was loving the book and then the Deodato artwork shows up and killed the momentum of the first 3/4s of the book.

DC Loses Two More Writers Before They Start: Andy Diggle Leaves ACTION COMICS and Joshua Fialkov Leaves GREEN LANTERN CORPS & RED LANTERNS [UPDATE]
March 20, 2013 5:11 pm Marvel under Harras was not dissimilar to DC now, and much like DC now, there were many editorial issues and after a while Harras was not very well liked. A prime example of this is in the original print of Earth X: Spidey Special where I believe Al Milgram inked in the phrase "Bob Harras is an asshole" on the spines of books.

DC Loses Two More Writers Before They Start: Andy Diggle Leaves ACTION COMICS and Joshua Fialkov Leaves GREEN LANTERN CORPS & RED LANTERNS [UPDATE]
March 20, 2013 3:27 pm It felt like Heroes Reborn right off the bat. Hell, it involved Bob Harras, Jim Lee, Rob Liefiled, and Scott Lobdell! I live for the day DC goes back to the Original Universe (which oddly enough was a marketing term they used in the early 2000s) and we can all forget the huge snowballing clusterfuck of the new 52

Review: THE PRIVATE EYE #1 by Brian K. Vaughan & Marcos Martin
March 19, 2013 6:55 pm I'm not saying that, I'm just saying I don't see why they would only make content for digital only people.

Review: THE PRIVATE EYE #1 by Brian K. Vaughan & Marcos Martin
March 19, 2013 6:42 pm I would assume they would want as many people to read it as possible though, and I don't think doing it digitally exclusive allows that. And as per the finical level, yes, people who would read this who don't have eReaders or don't own personal computer (which yes, still exist) wouldn't be able to. And they'd hear about it at their local store, like people heard about Y: The Last Man and Saga. And it not like wanting lemonade in a blue cup instead of a red, it's like wanting to watch a certain tv show but it's only available on like Netflix streaming and then saying it probably won't ever be available on DVD.
As per the double page spread format, 300 was also done all in double page spread and is probably one of the most beautiful print books in the medium. There's no reason for this not to be the same.

Review: THE PRIVATE EYE #1 by Brian K. Vaughan & Marcos Martin
March 19, 2013 5:57 pm It does seem like a slight to people who would read this, but through either personal preference or financial availability can't or won't.

Review: THE PRIVATE EYE #1 by Brian K. Vaughan & Marcos Martin
March 19, 2013 5:31 pm When I look at a screen, my eye instinctively goes to the center. When looking at a comic book (or any book for that matter) page, my eye instinctively goes to the top left corn. It may not seem like a huge deal but it dramatically changes my reading experience and make screen reading that much more difficult. Plus, at the end of the day there's also a psychological link between my absorption of a comic book and the physical object. The comics that I have read digitally I have not retained nearly as well as the ones I read in physical copy. Maybe a it's a residual effect of my learning disability, but that's the way it is for me. This exclusionary model does not sit well with me. I'd much rather pay $4 for a physical copy of this than a dollar for the digital.
