you post stuff on CBR?

[comicculturewarrior]

No, but I have been interviewed by them on a couple occasions. I've always been a CBR fan. CBR reporter/columnist Kiel Phegley is a class act and a friend of the show.

newsarama does indeed suck...

[comicculturewarrior]

I have since softened my stance on Newsarama after meeting the likes of John Suintres. But thanks for the support.

Now that's just wrong. There is not justification for taking an exclusive. They should give up an exclusive of theirs to you. They at least owe you that much.

I'll be writing X-Men for Marvel Comics before that ever happens.

(Y'know that means never, right?)

;-)

Thanks for the support,

Welcome to the Internets. Enjoy your stay.

Mason, we'll talk about it a bit, for sure. In the meantime, check out the Comics Waiting Room site where one of our writers, Matt Maxwell also an indie creator, discusses what the Diamond sales standards will mean to him and others.

We live in interesting and challenging times.

ELLIOT can you guys do a show about whats happening with DIAMOND and what it means for the small indies & industry in general?

oh uh incase anyone is wondeing- all my negative shouting comments are all with a bit of tounge n cheek.

No hate here- just frustration with the direction of things.

Thanks Mason. I'm past the whole incident now. I only mentioned it because Jose saw a comment of mine on the board and asked me to explain what happened. I then thought, what the heck, let all you folks in on the story as well.

Live and learn, I always say.

Thanks for your support!
