Well, the official novel of the "Blockbuster" film hit shelves today (the 23rd) and I'm wondering how many people plan on reading it. I'm almost finished with Above and Beyond, and I'll start this next. I won't be able to go see the movie when it comes out, so I figured I'd get a head start on the rest of you and find out what this is all about. So let's hear it - who's reading the book??

I will probably pick it up. I'm reading the prequel novel right now. It ain't Shakespeare, but it's just as good as the old Secret Missions comics. I would read more like this, but skip over any accellerator suits that make an appearance.

Just started reading it tonight. About 100 pages in and it's pretty good so far.

Heads up for those of you who haven't bought the movie novel yet but plan on it; head to Target - they have it for $5.99, which is 25% less than everywhere else. You'll probably have to pay the full $7.99 for Above and Beyond as I don't believe Target stocks it.

I've enjoyed it. I'll agree that it's cheap action, but it's entertained me, so I guess it's done its job. It's nice to read Joe material that is slightly more adult. I love going back and reading the old comic books but they tend to make my brain numb - not exactly the most engaging stuff in the world.
