DC Comics tries something
I just don’t read comics anymore. Going to school for Graphic Design in the evenings, and starting to do some more drawing and computer graphics is getting me interested in them again. I’ve been reading a few blogs about comics. A post today had me thinking, huh, wonder why no one has tried that before. Essential, DC Comic are going to be printing comics stories in USA Today for the next 12 weeks. I am not sure if these are going to be reprinting current issues of the actual comics, or stories just created for the paper, I suspect they will be unique for the paper.
This is just short of brilliant. I can not see anything but a win for either USA Today or DC.

That is cool. Hopefully other comic companies will do similar deals.
Barely a segue, but I can’t resist an opportunity to plug a friend’s comic, The Dreamer
The webcomic is at http://thedreamercomic.com/
The print version is from IDW, current issues on the shelf now, with the first Trade of the first 6 issues arriving July 15.
Adventures of a modern day high school girl who is living an alternate life during the revolutionary war every night when she sleeps.
Agree John, and feel free to plug away. Looks like a nice book. 1st thing that popped into my head when I saw the art was Strangers In Paradise, will have to work my way through a few issues in the archive, but initial impression was nice :)
