@Rocket -- Kirkman's books are the only $2 ones I've seen so far. @all The exclusive just covers iPod type devices. There are multIple comic readers selling comics now. This doesn't impact Longbox at all. I have other problems with Comixology's app that I'll get to in a special Pipeline Podcast tonight. :)

Hulk Volume 1 by Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuinness - A Review

On Mar 12, 2009 9:00 AM

I loved Peter David's run on "The Incredible Hulk" and I also loved this book. For completely different reasons.  That's as it should be -- every book judged on its own merits.

The Top 5 Most Wanted Out of Print Comics

On Dec 11, 2008 9:00 AM

From what I understand, the stories Alan Moore wanted to tell in SUPREME got folded into TOM STRONG.  So read TOM STRONG and pretend like it's the next SUPREME TPB. =) And "Complete Lowlife" is going for $70 on Amazon?  Hmmm, might be time to dig up my copy. . .

Happy Thanksgiving from iFanboy (& our favorite comic creators)

Not to step on Mark Sable's hope too much or anything, but THE AUTHORITY was the natural progression of Warren Ellis' "StormWatch" run, which began in 1996 -- the first term of the first Mr. Hope president, Bill Clinton.   But, hey, I'm glad Mark Waid isn't a self-loathing American anymore.  I'm only sorry we won't see more EMPIRE now, I guess. . .

I see on your Twitter that you've been doing some writing of your own. Whatcha writing?  Who are you pitching to? What's the end to Secret Invasion #8? Do you have a writing schedule?  Can you answer two out of three of the previous questions?

iFanboy Mini - Episode #143 - Ode to the Beyonder

On Oct 1, 2008 9:43 AM

Thanks for all the kind words, everyone.  I just finished watching it, myself.  Laughed out loud at the imagery. Conor, Josh, Ron, whoever worked on this -- great job.  Perfect Shooter picture, too. And I've never read "Secret Wars" 1 or 2. . .

Respect the Letter-er!

@ IroncladMerc - Lots of smaller and indy publishers use Comicraft fonts because they're relatively cheap and well known.  Many use free ComicCraft and Blambot fonts because they're ten times better than their own handwriting and, well, free. The "big name" letterers have their own fonts they use. @Tad - Illustrator is "only" $600 or so.

The iFanboy Letter Column - 09/12/08!

On Sep 12, 2008 4:00 PM

Two things about lettering: Substituting the "U" in the "F" word with an "I" would defeat the purpose.  Miller has now said that he included the real words so that the black bars would be the right size.  The "I" is less than half the width of the "U".  You could probably get away with an "O," though.

The iFanboy Letter Column - 09/05/08!

I need to point out that Ron Lim is still doing monthly comics. DC keeps him busy with their stuff (that I don't read, so someone else will have to fill in the gaps), and he's also done the adaptations of Anita Blake stories over at Marvel.
