And don't forget to read the conclusion to the thrilling Solar Surfer saga!

I suppose I shouldn't complain too loudly, what with it being free to download and all...
...but issue 12 was really, really unsatisfying. The writing, the art, the plot...

CBR/CBZ is just renamed RAR/ZIP files so that the commonly-used comicbook reader software will serve as the default app to open the files when clicked on. Rename them back and you can open them with your compression software to see the individually-scanned pages, generally in JPG format. Just FYI....
Umber's Hall of Heroes & Villains
V-X made the cut?
WOOHOO! My roommate and my wife helped me design that costume, wait until they hear this!
Thanks, guys! You just made my weekend!
Most often online as: Onmyouji (Triumph, Defender), King Kaizoku (Virtue, Mastermind), Sister Samedi (Freedom, Scrapper), G1 Shrike (Pinnacle, Defender), Kinetic Rex (Virtue, Blaster), El Santo de Aguilas (Virtue, Peacebringer), Hecate (Exalted, Controller), The Mask of Legend (Exalted, Scrapper), and Star-Ranger Green (Exalted, Corruptor)
I'm wondering if the reason my character was excluded was because I mistakenly forgot to submit some of the required information, even though I did resubmit everything later in full (albiet just the day after the deadline as I realized my mistake too late)? I had sent a PM to _Awry_ and posted in the forums but I never recieved a reply on this. If I wasn't selected for this reason I'd like to know. If they did accept my entry and it just didn't get chosen then I'd like to know that as well. Hanging in limbo like this is kind of frustrating. Just so you know, I sent in the brute Inferno Hammer.
Ah well, I didn't make it either. Wait, no... I submitted a Stalker. Yes. That's it, my stalker IS in there, she's just using Hide! Woot! I must have made it in!
*sigh* My delusions only last so long... Gratz to all of you who did make it in!

No problem. Is Issue 13 the one with the villain cameos? And if so, do you think you could post pics of who got in it?

That's Volcanis Prime. You wouldn't want him to get mad at you.
But seriously, I'm pretty happy to have made it in, since VP is my favorite character that I have designed, visually. I'm wondering around how many submissions there were for this. And thanks for posting a scan, it's soon to be my new desktop.

Heh. Someone made him into my San Diablo card by mistake (my mistake, natch).
Can anyone ID the rest of the villains?

Truth, unfortunately. Issue #12 was a real step back in terms of story quality.
I know nothing.
I still haven't gotten issue 10. Support told me they were having issues or something getting it out. But c'mon, I got 11, and then 12 I dunno how long ago.
I am formally on strike, as far as reading the comic goes, until I get Issue 10!!

You mean which is which?
We've got the names - I bet we can figure them out.
The one I know for sure: Honeypot is the bee girl!

Well, I wouldn't say it was that bad, but it was a little... predictible. Most of that particular plot was predictible to be honest. They need to come up with some really good plots, not just "now is the day i RULE THE WORLD!!!!" which is... OLD. And the idea of someone switching sides just to fool the opposition is the oldest schtick in the book.
So with that in mind, I don't think issue 12 could have been any less predictable. It didn't have much to go on. It was miles ahead of the blue king series of course... at least it didn't have horus in it.
Zeus - god of horrible costume options

Is GGloom short for Governess Gloom? looking at that scan further up the female toon in black and white with the bone boots, gloves and skull shoulder pads looks incredibly like her.
WOW!!!
My main Villain Vax is in the comic book!!!

Yup, issue 12 wasn't very good at all imo. the thing was, from issue 10s storyline, they could've gone *somewhere* with it, but then 11 messed that all up, and 12 made it even worse, this is the kind of plot the shows like The Tick make fun of becuase they are so stupid and cliche.
I tend to agree... what bugs me is that they're limiting the story arcs to three issues with a huge cast of characters.
The best part of the story arcs is that they do get into the character's stories, but at the expense of the drama of the present... I think the writers aren't to blame for this since they have to fit it all in in one compact three issue package.
Dose someone have a link so i can download issue 12 of the comic please.
CoH.com, go to the comic tab, and downloads

Dangit, shut out again. I fail to understand why they choose some ugly or dumb-looking costumes.
[/ QUOTE ]
No doubt like my own Hero, your costume is superior even to the iconic hero/vilians in the game and they can't have the rabble showing up the stars
------->"Sic Semper Tyrannis"<-------
Wow, even Blind Messenger's costume is better than some of those. Oh well, most of them included skulls, so everything is okay on the Messenger Front. Congrats to everyone who got in.
Okay, I'll bite.
Anybody not liking San Diablo's look? I'm rather proud of it, personally.

You know what's even easier to read? The damn paper format we were given at the outset. Haven't read a single issue since the comic went digital except to stand in the comic shop and read the paper copies. Then I don't buy em, cause I'm supposed to get em free.
I keep mylaring my monitor but it just doesn't seem the same somehow.
And those who say, "They never specified the format," well, I wonder what you'd say if you won a Ferrarri and they handed you a Hot Wheels spouting the same crap.
