art and writing seem great. can't wait for this book.

 

[marcofthebeast]

Looks pretty sweet, It's great to see Captian Comet to step into the lime light.

 

[marcofthebeast]

^ Yeah, And for that very reason I hope this turns out good.

 

[Olivier]

This looks great. The art & coloring are fantastic: crisp, clear and colorful; these samples make me crave reading this.
Thanks!

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Haha, the first line is funny when you consider the Marvel universe. I always wondered why DC was so light on telepaths.

Anyway, it looks great. I hope it manages to recapture the feel of Diggle and Ferry's Adam Strange mini. I'm curious to see if that cover has any explanation in the comic or if it's just a purely visual "the king is dead, long live the king" sort of thing.

 

[BrianWilly]

Looks spiffy.

 

[Anubis]

Nice

 

[Darthphere]

Excellent....wont be picking it up.

 

[Anubis]

Why not? No money?

 

[Darthphere]

Pretty much. I just added Uncle Sam, Union Jack and a whole bucnh of other titles on my pull list, and I dotn even know if I can afford those.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

So skip lunch a couple of days. Come on, don't be a wuss. You know you want it.

You assume im not doing that already.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Aw, it's ok. I spent last week eating a small portion of a single box of linguine once a day so I could have enough money to buy comics.

 

[Darthphere]

Aw, it's ok. I spent last week eating a small portion of a single box of linguine once a day so I could have enough money to buy comics.

All ive eaten is one slice of Kraft American cheese a day.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I went two days without any food whatsoever.

 

[Darthphere]

I went two days without any food whatsoever.

Ok, you win.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

HA!

 

[Anubis]

I got you all beat, I've resorted to eating earth worms and grubs. It's nutritious, fun to eat, they can even earn you cash if you convince people to bet weather or not you will consume such horrid things, and most importantly, it's free. More money for comics, though i've been s**ting blood every now and then...no matter.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Big deal, I **** blood after eating normal stuff.

 

[Darthphere]

I really wish i had money to afford this, I was this close to dropping Nightwing....

 

[TheCorpulent1]

So drop Nightwing. What's the problem?

 

[Anubis]

Yeah, you know what issue Wolfman takes over on, so drop it and wait until then.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

There's still 3 or 4 months left before the good stuff, and Mystery in Space's first couple of issues will be out before then, at least.

 

[Anubis]

And by that time you could start to really hate other books so you could clear up more space that way. I mean, are you still getting Flash?
