New Billboards in CoH/V?

So am I just particularly inattentive to what's been here all along, or are there new billboards in game? I noticed a billboard near Kara the Scorpion in Sharkhead that I'm sure I've not seen before. It was a little heroic for the Rogue Isles, maybe. I'm convinced that there are heroes in the Rogue Isles, though, so not a big deal for me.

Are you sure that you just didn't notice it before?

"Even Grasshoppers Can Learn To Fly": an ad for a martial arts training school.

That's not heroic; it's a fairly standard-issue "pseudo martial artsy saying". Are villainous martial artists not allowed to strive for excellence, in your opinion?

There was one in Kings Row this morning right as you get off the train, something about zombies

That billboard isn't new. I've seen that there since I've started playing the game.

Well, as I said when I started the thread, me just not noticing was certainly a possibility.

So they are new! I'm going to have to keep an eye open now.

(And let me just say, for my first time ever, First After a Redname!)

Is the billboard over the Talos PPD a new one?

Yup. Players submitted a ton of great, well-drawn billboard ideas, and the environment team turned quite a few of them into actual game assets. Looks like you guys've found 3 so far--can you find the rest? There are quite a few other ones out there.

Wow, that's really neat. Congrats to all who got theirs in. And here I thought I was merely going crazy for seeing things.

Fairly certain this one's new too. At least... I just noticed it yesterday.

Hm... I could have sworn I've already seen that martial arts billboard before.

Check to see if you already have access to Time Manipulation.

This is a great billboard and the idea behind it is sound. Any flying, bulletproof jackass can play the hero. It takes real guts to be a normal girl or guy with a gun standing firm against injustice.

Freakin' brilliant is what that is. Major kudos to whomever created that billboard.

I wanted to buy one of the billboards to recruit for my VG. But I think the selling of ad space quietly fizzled out somewhere in some issue
