View Full Version : CoH Comic Update!
Here's (http://www.newsarama.com/Top_Cow/CoH/CoH_01.htm) the scoop. It gives a small preview (cover, and a couple of pages from the actual comic). All I have to say is that this is going to be awesome. The art work is great. The story is great. And I'm on a cliffhanger at the moment. I can't wait until this gets shipped.

The cover reminds me of an old JLA cover. I had no idea Manticore was exactly Green Arrow in a lion costume. I hope Waid works to make their personalities a little more unique than that.

Wow, it's looking fantastic. I'm actually going to be looking forward to getting this comic instead of using it as a coaster...What a change!

I may actually bag and board these instead of just throwing them in a drawer like I did with the others.

Very cool stuff :D
And it look like it might be hinting at an Event once CoV is released.

Waid nailed something I had been thinking about for awhile, specifically how creepy the hospital teleporter system is. The guy starting to turn into a skeleton then reappearing completely whole in the hospital was a neat touch. And an idea I had wanted to flesh out a bit. Damn you Mark Waid!!! (Why am I always typing this?)

At least you're only typing it. When you start writing it on the walls in blood, or carving it into your forearm or thigh...meh..then we'll worry ;)

I agree 8. I think when villians hits they will shut off the hospital teleporters, and our powers and let the new villians reak havoc on us. (Or sumthing along those lines).
I always thought the comic shoulve focused on Statesman and the gang rather than some character we dont know of. My jaw actually dropped when I saw the pic of manticore, states, synapse and all! :chuckle:
Also on a side note Ive always loved Manticores costume!

The only (minor) thing that bugs me is seeing COH Heroes using powers and abilities that players don't have access to or don't work the way they do in game... granted the comic allows room for more artistic freedom, but it's like a tease, IMHO.
Just as long are there aren't toooooooooooooooo many inconsistencies between the game and the comic, I'll be happy.

If CoV in anyway allows (player) Villians to disrupt my NON-PVP perferred playstyle, I'll be quitting CoH out of protest. I refuse to bow down to the aggrivation of immature and annoying opponents. I deal with enough bull**** at work...

This looks sweet!
Only two things looked wrong to me though:
1. I thought Sister Psyche was in Aurora's body. She's back in game as the redhead?
2. Some minor pacing issues. It could've been written a little better.
