The comic book publishing industry is not healthy. . No doubt. But there is always the allure of Hollywood to push creators to express their ideas through comics. COWBOYS & ALIENS, SCOTT PILGRIM, THE SURROGATES, etc are some examples of movies born in comics. While one could argue the ultimate ...

Re: Why so serious? (re Mayo Report)
