RecessionWatch: A comic book turnaround?
Robert Scott, founder of the Comic Book Industry Alliance, said the combination of the recession and challenges from new technology hit the industry particularly hard.
"People were losing their homes and they just stopped going out to buy things that weren't a necessity," Scott said. "But so far, we have seen a huge turnaround and we are finally seeing some growth that we haven't seen in three years. With the economy beginning to stabilize and the housing market rebounding, I think people are slowly coming back and are starting to spend their money again."
DHPWatch: John Arcudi on the appeal of the anthology.
I love it, and wish other publishers would do it — not just to test out a variety of new series (it's ideal for that) but to allow creators to work in the short form again. The eight page, ten page, twelve story is a lost art in comics and it once was the mainstay, the bread and butter, the meat and potatoes of the medium. And not just for hack work. Look at EC's best stuff (much of Kurtzman's work, or "Master Race") or Art Spiegelman's "Raw" magazine. That stuff was nothing less than vital to the survival of the industry at one point, so what happened?

Wonder Woman decapitates someone on page 15 before being impaled herself in the panel above, Superman is torn apart and disintegrated on page 16 just before we see thhe gaping torso wound in Wonder Woman's corpse on the same page, Batman dies in a fiery explosion on page 20, Jay Garrick and his girlfriend discuss premarital sex on page 25, Jay binge drinks on page 26, and page 27 features Hermes, a naked pagan god, and the conservative Christian concerned mothers in One Million Moms had no objection to any of it.

This is Computo the Comic Link Conqueror speaking. I come for your women. But for now I merely collate comic-related bits and pieces online. One day I will rule. Until that day, read on.
They say I am a work in progress. The fools.
Cosplaying in and of itself can be stressful enough; I've definitely had convention days when I did not feel confident enough for tight spandex. But for non-white fans, the additional pressure felt when not playing a character of the same ethnicity can add an unspoken anxiety to the experience.
The Super Helicarrier will be sold at the Hasbro's booth ( No. 3329) while supplies last, which won't be long even with the hefty price tag ($129.99) and the intimidating prospect of actually lugging this thing through the human traffic jam of the Con's trading floor. At just over 4 feet long, the Super Helicarrier is the size of standard ironing board so, you know, good luck with that.
