That's quite possibly one of the stupidest reasons I've ever heard. So just because it's not liked by some people Kirkman and the team of artists are going to say "Oh, they don't like this so we'll just stop making this highly anticipated book thus wasting the hype, the writing power, the editing power, the drawing power, and the colorist power." No, that would be stupid and that's why that's not the answer for it being delayed. No, it's delayed due to the artists and like I said Todd taking God Damn forever for him to draw it. It's not right to judge it when it's not completed yet and it's going to be a while till it is. Hell, only issue 3 came out last year and it's got another 3 till it's done. I haven't read issue 3 yet but I'm looking forward to when the series is completed because I find it nice image has it's own event and hey long dormmented image characters such as Supreme and possibly Pitt(Who's suppose to be at topcow right now) are making appearances in it.

So I've decided to bump this for image is doing some rather different and awesome. See image is going to have it's own event or should I say it's own convention called the image expo. I find this to be pretty cool as this will obviously be dedicated to image and hearing news about new projects and what will happen with future series.

I do hope they say something about image united so we can judge it when it's COMPLETE not the way it is right now but it's kind of funny people make jokes about that but never say anything about Marvel's the twelve. :P I'm also hoping we hear some more Supreme news and for those who don't know, Image is going to revive Supreme with a new series starting off with a lost finished script by Alan Moore and then after that Erik Larsen is going to be taking over as writer. I'm happy for this BUT I don't like it how they say it's going to be a balanced tone of the stupid EXTREME Supreme from the 90's and Alan Moore's Supreme. But since it's being written by Erik, I believe it'll be good and if not well Image's other... other among other Superman clones and his friends are set to return. Big Bang Comics is said to be coming back but I'm not too sure how exactly. I say this because I don't know what Pulp 2.0 Press is doing with it, I mean are they releasing them in trades or are they doing it digitally? Either way, I'm digging this idea and hope we get to see them soon because I love Homage comics of the silver age and I was always interested in reading big bang. Now if only we can see a trade of Alan Moore's 1963...

...and the 1963 annual that wrapped up the storyline that carried throughout the mini. Although from what I've read I might as well wish to be playing golf on Peeble Beach with Kate Beckensale as my caddy. Likewise with the 1963 Annual with Jim Lee on art detail it ain't going to happen.

I am planning on picking up the new BLOODSTRIKE series when it comes out. I'm a fan of the book from back in the day, and seeing how its going to be written by HACK/slash creator Tim Seeley. Also speaking of HACK/slash, next Wednesday, the third annual is coming out. It features slasher hunters Cassie Hack and Vlad going into the swamps of Louisana. Their job, to hunt down and finally wipe out the viscious serial slasher that roams those swamps. Victor Crowley, the axe-weilding maniac from the HATCHET series of films.

I forgot about the annual. I must say it would be amusing to see the characters from the silver age with the silver age art style meeting up with Modern Day Comics' modern character. But yeah, shame Jim Lee never could do it and it's a shame Alan Moore only got half of the script done for the issue as I feel it would of been a great way to end the series.

HACK/slash creator Tim Seeley talks on how he got Cassie and Vlad to face off with the HACHET flicks' very own maniac, Victor Crowley in the following interview(http://comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=35715). And some of HACK/slash ANNUAL 2011:HACHET SLASH !'s own Ariel Zucker-Brull's art is previewed as well. The annual will be leaving a bloody, gruesome trail into comic shops next week on December 7th.

Yep and I look forward to it because the first issue will be based on an unpublished Supreme Script by Alan Moore but then after that what Erik said as I mentioned in my post from before is it'll be a mix of Alan Moore Supreme and EXTREME Supreme. D:

...um Liefeld, while being a hack, still created Supreme. You really cant call it "heat". There are so many GREAT characters created by hacks or horrible artist and writers and today are AMAZING.

That doens't mean he is going to turn back Supreme into a dick like in the Liefeld years.

You may never know, he may show some of that egotistical dickness.

But I'm hoping this will lead Image to give us PROPER reprintings of Alan Moore's stuff, because the way it was reprinted it didn't look right. I describe why but other people INCLUDING an artist that worked on it agreed it looked bad. I also wish they reprint them in hardcover form as well.

Also I'd like to see them reprint big bang comics, which I think I mentioned this before BUT I got a reply from someone working on it and they say they'll release them both digitally and in trade but the trade will be like DC showcase.

Tim Seeley gets into what his plans are for writing the relaunch of Rob Liefield's many times a resurrected super-soldier BLOODSTRIKE.

So apparently there is a big giant monster one shot entitled Enormous due for release this year, possibly at the San Diego comic con. The concept art looks neat, and it looks to be more grounded in reality than the recent IDW Godzilla series.

Here is the wesbite:http://www.theenormouscomic.com/

And the description from IGN.com:
"In the midst of a planetary battle for food and fuel, a vast ecological cataclysm spawns 'the enormous', massive beasts unlike anything ever witnessed. Humankind struggles to stave off extinction."

I blame Jim Lee and Rob Liefeld for cursing characters since 1991 with copious amounts of bags and bands strapped to the legs, thighs, waist and upper & lower arms of heroes and villains.

..I mean seriously. What's in those bags? US soldiers have MOLLE bags to carry ammo, radios and other shit. But WTF does a hero that has psionic powers need with ANYTHING that could be carried in a small pouch on a belt?

If youve read any of the comics from 1991-1996, superheroes and villains bled profusely if they walked into a strong breeze. And it was always black blood and small little trickle streams. They only wore bandages at the funerals of the characters killed only to be ressurected a month later.
