This is the number one comment I get on the book — “But dude, Jesus was the FIRST zombie!”

It makes me laugh every time!

Layne – that comic sounds AWESOME.

Anyway, one other thing:

“I think I’ll be skipping Jesus Hates Zombies from Alterna Comics on page 190, but I didn’t realize that Jesus hated the undead so much, considering he brought a dead person back to life one time.”

Considering the last part of his stories centers on the time when =HE= was a zombie, you’d think he’d be a bit more tolerant. Guess he was just setting the stage for his followers.

I want to see Belgium’s biggest heroes!

22 pages of Captain Flemish and The Walloonist arguing whether they should go their separate ways or stay together manning the information kiosk at the EUHQ. EVERY DAMN MONTH.

I couldn’t generate any interest in anything Marvel listed this month. I used to be a big zombie, too.

Wish DC would do those Justice league books as trade paperbacks. or put more issues in them.
I know hardbacks are the big thing in the last few years, tho I don’t see them as adding value or making it more literary or important — just more expensive. I don’t appreciate it at all, and I’ve skipped a lot of stuff because of it.
Is JLA/Avengers ever going to be in a trade?

Diamond has the Fear Machine trade listed as shipping this week.

As for the Delano material, there should be about one more trade’s worth of stories left to collect, if I remember correctly. They still have the issues in the mid-to-late 30′s to collect. Up to Delano’s departure with issue #40. Personally, I always loved the Delano run on Hellblazer. It was when I discovered the book and the character. Sadly, I’ve been hardpressed to find too much else from Delano that I liked, but his Constantine was fantastic at times. Probably the creepiest and most disturbing the book ever has been was during his run (which is saying something…).

Anyway, I could keep gushing and being effusive about the book. I’m super excited to see it offered up for release and encourage folks to check it out.

Yeah, it’s a slightly revised and expanded version and it’s the first Sequart book Diamond chose to carry, which is pretty cool. So now comic shops can actually order it without having to do some fancy deal with Sequart itself.

And I’m sure someone else has pointed this out about Final Crisis, but Morrison has a history of being ignored by the rest of mainstream continuity–as both companies have almost immediately “cleaned up” any changes he made as soon as he left, and I sure as hell hope that doesn’t happen with Final Crisis.

Oh, and the Omega the Unknown hardcover will be brilliant. I love the series.

Notable for rare use of inter-title continuity in Vertigo; we see the title character accepting the keynote speaker position for Gaiman’s serial killer convention, and why he couldn’t make it (thus allowing the Corintihian to take the spot…)

It’s unheard of now, but it used to happen every now and again back in the day – it’s why in Ennis’ run the devil is never called Lucifer, and Tim Hunter’s mum was thought to be Death for awhile.
