When we Kiwis find something we like, we say it's 'Sweet as'. When I look at Image Comics' June 2016 solicits, these six make the 'Sweet As' grade:

Jupiter's Legacy is amazing! It takes soooo long for the issues to come out though. How are they going to make it a monthly?
ReplyDeleteHey Tam! I honestly think mate that is Image's main problem. I know Saga started this idea of having breaks between story arcs which has now spread to many other books in their line, but I'm old school and I want to subscribe to monthly titles. I want 12 issues a year and I don't care if publishers are trade focussed, I'm here for comics not books.
DeleteCreator owned or not, I still see it as the duty of the publisher to sort this. Hopefully they will by 2017!
