I agree. I HATE the art in the current book. Songbird in particular looks really ugly, she basically looks like a completely different character. Eh other than Songbird adn Fixer I'm enjoying the art in the T-Bolts book, especially Juggernaut, he looks great in the book. ok I'll give you that, his Juggy does look awesome. still, the way he draws Songbird as a bulldyke is inexcusable.

Question: What do you guys think of digital comic services? Some people like them, others hate not having paper in their hands. Considering the news DC was going this way with their new revival, along with Marvel and others doing it for a while, figure it would be a good time to ask. I was just thinking about this the other day. I really think its a matter of time before it dominates the market. I love going to a comic store and all that, but its just like iTunes/digital downloads vs CDs. Its only a matter of time, plus it would feel like I'm reading comics in the future.

As with Cds and DVDs, I want something for my money. A physical product. A download feels like I've just thrown money at my computer Aren't you really paying for the artist's creative work as opposed to the ink and paper of the comic? I know where you're coming from, but I'm just saying that's what you're really paying for right?

Gladstone's School for World Conqueror's. I just picked it up at the refurbished Berkely comic shop. Its pretty sweet. It reminds me of a Harry Potter/Guild of Calamitous intent type hybrid.
Fell by Templesmith. I've been waiting for the new Choker TP for EVER! and I bougth this just to hold me over.
Also, Tank Girl: Bad Wind Rising has been pretty sweet. Just got issue 4 and I love the new artistic direction. Great rebirth of an old fav.

Well, I just realized that the new Alpha Flight series is only gonna be a mini, and that's disappointing. I'd really hoped that series was gonna stick, because the .1 issue sold me on it.

Pretty light week for me this week. Scalped was pretty intense. Annihilators was a meh ending to a meh mini but.... {Spoiler}Very interested to see Marvel's revamped cosmic heroes finally make their big arrival on Earth in September.

Also, picked up the new Ghost Rider this week. Pretty great stuff, but then, I freaking LOVE Ghost Rider.

I know this kind of thing is inevitable, but I really hope it doesn't completely overtake the market. I like going out to buy books, movies, CDs, and comics. If all that s*** is completely on the computer, I'll have a lot less options for what to do when I'm sick of sitting inside my house (which happens fairly often).

A thought: Is the Suicide Squad video game that I heard rumors about a year or so ago still on the docket? I'd love to get ahold of that.

While I could still get the creative work via download, it wouldnt feel as much like I'd bought something, because I wouldnt have a physical something

Typical.
After all the complaining about DC restarting all their titles, Marvel reveal Uncanny X-Men is getting renumbered back to 1 this year as well.
Knowing Marvel, they will eventually go back to traditional numbering when they get to an anniversary year, but still, GRRRRR!

Knowing Marvel, they will eventually go back to traditional numbering when they get to an anniversary year, but still, GRRRRR! I'm really worried about the X-Men universe as a whole. "Schism" is being touted by Marvel as "The X-Men's Civil War", which has me assuming that they're going to once again write a one-sided story in which writers clearly play favorites over one side, completely missing the point of the good guy vs. good guy storyline. My guess is that Wolverine is going to be presented as the ultimate righteous good-guy, while they make Cyclops out to be a complete dick.

To be fair, with both Cyclops and Wolverine, they are both total dicks.
Hopefully there will be a third way.......

Better to renumber than add ANOTHER X-Men series to the sea of them out there. I'm pretty sure they have run out of adjectives to use for it.
