JMS doing big blue by GreenFlashlight	Feb 29th, 2008 08:15:49 AM
not sure about yhat
Not sure about new B5 either by mbeemer	Feb 29th, 2008 08:48:06 AM
JMS let the contract expired after the editor insisted on changing the script of an issue he wrote. He had a 'final approval' clause in his contract, but the editor declared it didn't apply if he wrote the issue. That was the end of that. I don't think Joe would do B5 with them again unless they have a "we really mean it" clause in the contract.

i have a the boys question by bacci40	Feb 29th, 2008 03:08:19 PM
i usually buy everything by ennis, but somehow this series went under my radar...(this is what happens when you dont show up to your local comic shoppe every wednesday) the art looks great and twisted....is the storyline good, and is it comparable to preacher and punisher?
i have a the boys answer by CarmillaVonDoom	Feb 29th, 2008 06:20:49 PM
First off, I am a huge fan of Preacher (hope it doesn't become a film, but a miniseries on cable...and cast Katee Sackoff as Tulip). If you really, really hate superheroes, and you are already a fan of Ennis, 'The boys' will become your fave book of all time. I happen to love superhero books of all kinds, so the concept of "The Boys" is a bit much...imo it should have ended after the first mini. BUT, I still read it and laugh out loud. Generally it is loads of fun; having a background involving knowledge of comics makes it much more involving.
thx by bacci40	Feb 29th, 2008 09:53:43 PM
guess ill go and buy the back issues....wont kill me to get into another 5 year mini
It'd be interesting to have Superman take on Iron Douchebag, er, by MrMysteryGuest	Feb 29th, 2008 10:38:11 PM
Written by JMS, the way he did with Iron Man in Amazing Spider-Man!

Planetary by Trik_Ster	Mar 1st, 2008 03:47:30 AM
I thought it was a done deal after wrapping up after the four voyagers... Wasn't Planetary a limited series with a finale scripted in from the get go?
well, Trik_Ster... by SleazyG.	Mar 1st, 2008 01:07:59 PM
...the main story of PLANETARY is completed. Well before the last run of issues, though, Ellis siad he was going to do a one-shot epilogue that would come around a year after the main series ended. From what I remember, I think he's finished writing it and now it's just a matter of the art getting completed.
