    They say it's for you to create your own comic

    I'm both aghast and impressed by this stunt. Selling a bunch of blank pages stapled together for four bucks (it is regular cover price right)? That's ballsy. Greedy as sh*t, but ballsy.

    I'm very curious to see how it performs. I mean, I suppose if you went to a lot of con's and got a lot of commissions, it might be cool to have a "Superman" comic filled with art by a bunch of pro's....but beyond that very narrow demographic I can't see anyone being willing to do this. I sure as hell won't be. And a part of me hopes no one else does either, because the last thing this industry needs to know is that fans will, literally, spend money on nothing.

    Dear God....

    You mean that ad blurb from weeks back on this wasn't a joke?! I thought it was a prank or something that accidentally made it into the previews. Or some free give-a-way to children's hospitals.

    It may yet become that last if they can't find enough fools (as in money soon parteth with) to buy these.

    Hey, I felt the need to remind the fools who might actually buy this. *shrugs*

    Technically if you're getting the pages filled in by pros, you're also covering the talent's page rate. :P

    Just think of it as DC branded drawing book.
    ...
    How much is a 22-page drawing book?

    Personally I found the story kind of vague and the art was just blah.

    But was it better than anything drawn by Rob Liefeld?
