Speaking of Ultimate Spider-Man, what happened to the MTV series? People plugged it, Brian Michael Bendis was helming it, but my Tivo's never seen it.

They've shown some episodes about 2 months back, but I don't know exactly when they were scheduled to run (who knows with MTV's scheduling?) Bendis' role was scaled way back to where he was a consultant, and maybe had some script input on the first episode or so.

The response was generally "eh" from the comcs boards.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

They were showing them last summer on Friday evenings, there were about 13 episodes, then it went into reruns.

It was OK, but not so good to make me watch MTV to find out if/when there are more episodes.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Is there a release date on the Firefly DVDs?

So, are any of the other X-Men titles worth reading? I think that the New X-Men is excellent, and Uncanny X-Men (based on the first two tpbs) is pretty dumb.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Which issues did it cover?

I'm not sure. The names of the tpbs are "Hope" and "Dominant Species". I'm pretty well through with this series, though.

I don't think I've read those -- the art is manga-esque?

I'm quite enjoying The New Mutants. There's a book that was thoroughly ruined, but so far the revamp is a graceful "next generation" scenario.

Nope, not in the way I think of manga (like Jill Thompson's style). Don't bother reading them -- the artwork seems ok until the artist decides suddenly to draw a character grotesque and the story is illogical, poorly conceived shit.
