55, Week of
Welcome to another issue
of Outcries! – It was an
exciting week for us (again) –
Outland Comics Web-site – We planned to launch our Outland Comics
Web-site this week but it’s been delayed a bit due to the usual delays and
such associated with transferring domain names and hosting. With luck it will
definitely be up this week. We’ll send out a note to let everyone know – so
remember to check out Outland Comics.com later this week – and be sure
to let Aaron Lee know what a great job he’s done!
Not To Be Missed – CIVIL WAR #4 finally arrives! Plus, the latest 52 (week 20) with the
origin of Adam Strange! In CATWOMAN #59 the father of Catwoman's baby is revealed! The Suicide
Squad is back in CHECKMATE #6! There’s also the long
awaited Dwight T. Albatross The Goon Noir #1,
and the new Yu-Gi-Oh 2006
Just so you know, Justice League of
America #2 had been scheduled to arrive this week but has been pushed
to next week (
Comics in the News! – There’s been a number of news articles lately
focusing on the popularity of comics in the media – Entertainment Weekly
spotlighted Frank Miller’s ABSOLUTE DARK KNIGHT on their “Must” List
this week; Miller was also featured on National Public Radio’s “Of This I
Believe” on Monday September 11th with a very personal essay on patriotism
and how he believes it is essential to our national survival; and on September
13th Brian K. Vaughan - best known for Y: The Last Man, Ex Machina and Runaways was interviewed about his
Graphic Novel PRIDE OF BAGHDAD on National Public Radio's "Talk
of the Nation". The Atlantic Monthly featured a very
interesting article on “Superhero Chic” and how portraying a Superhero is the
means for creating “new movie glamour”.
Hmm, could it be that the rest of the
world is starting to understand what many of us have known for years about
comics?
Have a great week!
