There are a few hints about the up-coming X-Men series, Chuck is keepin' it pretty secret tho'. But it is mega-cool to see Chuck doing interviews again!

Go lookit!

I'm still trying to find out about Jubilee's status. Claremont says she's spoken for, but I don't see her on any of the upcoming rosters:?

Loved the Austen interview. Looking forward to the books in May. Signed up for all of them at my local comic shop. Taking on 4 more titles. I hope my money doesn't run out. :P


Geeze. Books are now (or most) $2.99. Why not $3.00? Does a penny really matter?:rolleyes

I was told that that penny does, indeed, matter.

The lower price category stops at $2.99 and so with just the penny difference shops may be less likely to buy the book or at least as many of the book.

Something about the risk margin.

Don't ask me. I just smiled, nodded, and priced my comic at $2.75. ;)

Sorry, but amounts like that have always bothered me. Like advertisements that say this item under $10.00 and the price is $9.99. lol...but to me a penny isn't really a problem.


But oh well:rolleyes

it just shows that a lot of people don't think things through fully... 2.99 SOUNDS less than three dollars to some people even though it really isn't... ah well, if you buy 9 books a month, you can save a WHOLE DOLLAR in a year this way. in only 3 years you can get a whole extra issue. aint it grand? :p

Unless the books go up to $3.25 in 3 years in which case you have to shell out a whole quarter! Damn all the luck! :P
