@Conor: John the Skrull and Captain Midlands both appeared in Cornell's Wisdom MAX series last year. John turns up there, and it is explained that he was part of a failed four man covert invasion the Skrulls attempted back in the 60s, attempting to replace The Beatles. There's some brilliant glimpses of that past, including conflict with the group, when John turned up with a Kree Yoko Ono. :...

Captain Britain & MI:13 is the big one for me, this month - let alone week. The preview pages doing the rounds online look outstanding. Leonard Kirk's artwork is sound and Cornell is giving the Invasion a real sense of relevency on the British side of the Atlantic. Strong cast, too.

Hmmmm. I mostly agree with those. Not so sure about Fabry, though. I think he does do a great cover. But yeah, his interiors are not so strong. I didn't like his Neverwhere art - but more so because the characters looked too far remodelled from the TV series. Very much with you on Lee. My own personal list of Artists I don't get would have to include Scott Kollins. I just don't get the appea...

I have to say that I agree with most of that. Personally, I have no real problem with people delivering different interpretations of characters, providing it's not something glaringly contradictory in terms of mainstream continuity. The beauty of Elseworlds tales or Marvel's Ultimate line is that we can have alternative takes on characters in a more extreme way for longer periods of tim...

Whoa! This IS a light week. Of my usual books there's only Wolverine, this week. BQ: Jack Regan from 70s British cop show The Sweeney.

I'm still having real trouble trying to submit reviews. I understand there should be an option to write a review, if you go top the comics the you've checked as 'pulled' from each weeks books. The problem is that when I click on the Your Comics option, next to the profile tab all I ever seem to get is a "Sorry, Unable to select comics" prompt, with a Go Back button. Anybody else get...

This is a really quiet week for me. The only two I have on my list are Grendel: Wake the Devil and Wolverine Origins (I'm still praying for this to get better...) My beer of choice is Guinness. Cannot be beaten - practically a meal in itself.

I have two questions, guys. 1) Will the HD videocast still play in 5th Gen Video iPods? 2) Will the HD format be replacing the videocast on iTunes?

This might sound really daft, but how do you actually submit a review. I look at the comics I've added to my Pulls, that I've rated, and that I've commented on. But can't seem to find any review option. What am I missing?

My initial thoughts upon seeing Rorschach and the Comedian were 'Yes, that's spot on'. But looking at the others I have certain reservations. The way that the Nite-Owl costume is styled worries me. It's not silly things like 'That mask doesn't have a full shoulder headdress piece'. I'm not a moron. I can live with little changes. It's more that the more I look at that costume the more that I ...
