Hopefully THIS iteration will get characters RIGHT..no killing of joes just to kill them (zooke, grandslam jinx, to name a few)and better art and story telling.

Im still having issues with the whole Scarlett and Mainframe issue in the other book. Apparently Larry is the only writer that is talented enough to give the mute, masked Snake-eyes a human element. I thought that the Snake-eyes and Scarlett relationship truly helped to define both those characters.
Anyway, enough high jacking of this thread. Good luck with the new direction. I'll give it a try. |

There is a preview on another site and its pretty good. Colton is pretty darn awesome. Best part is when Duke and Colton shake hands and Duke is shocked at how tight Colton's grip is. I smiled at that.
