Thanks for posting up that link. Great wo...Hi Staz. Thanks for posting up that link. Great work! It also gives us a hint at what's going to be in that volume, which always good. Hope you don't mind, but I've posted that link up on my latest post, so a few more folks will spot it.<br /><br />Hello to you too, Colsmi. I agree it, is a shame Marvel have taken a while to realise what they had. I still think that if last years nominations hadn't gotten fluffed up, and CB&MI13 had been on the list, it might have been given a few more months to turn itself around. Given the interest that was sparked online around the time of Vampire State things might have worked out a little differently. Who can say?<br /><br />Paul Cornell getting the Action Comics gig is great news. Having seen the way he handled Norman Osborn in Dark X-Men I can't wait to see what he does with Lex Luthor.<br /><br />It does amaze me that Marvel didn't offer him another ongoing sooner though. He's had several minis and one shots keeping him busy, all of which were of a pretty consistent high quality, but the ongoing just didn't come. I would have thought that after how strong Dark X-Men was that putting him and Leonard Kirk on an X-Men satellite title would have been a total no-brainer.<br /><br />Apparently not. <br /><br />Well, Marvel's loss, DC's gain.<br /><br />At least it's not exclusive. I still hope we see PC writing MI13 again at some point. Even as a limited series.Mark Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13499212500786272512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5510941869814453320.post-19997046785816676912010-04-12T23:48:19.762+01:002010-04-12T23:48:19.762+01:00It's a shame Marvel is only now really getting...It's a shame Marvel is only now really getting behind Captain Britain & Mr Cornell, since he's now off working for DC on Action Comics. I simply couldn't grasp why Marvel didn't give him a frontline title - was this Action gig in the pipeline for a very long time or did Marvel simply completely drop the ball? Whatever, great to know Mr C will be crafting Superman each and every month for hopefully a good while ...Colin Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15246781681702128600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5510941869814453320.post-57231878963119586372010-04-11T21:58:46.772+01:002010-04-11T21:58:46.772+01:00Great blog Mark... looks like I have a lot of back...Great blog Mark... looks like I have a lot of back reading to do here.
