New review for Beyond the Kuiper Belt #1 by various folks and seriously, if you would like anything reviewed, now is a great time to send comics.  I thought I was totally out before I found this tucked under some other books.

New review for Ultimate Lost Kisses #11 by Brian John Mitchell and Dave Sim.  Yes, you read that correctly.

New review for A Story About Fish by Lauren Barnett, and that makes two days in a row that I remembered to put 2010 for the date.  I have my doubts about keeping that perfect record going.   Oh, and as for the comic rental idea, I just got word from one of the big dogs that they’re OK with the idea, which cements the fact that I’m going to have a hefty pile of comics to start with.  I’m also still trying to get confirmation or denials from individual artists about using their books, so keep those e-mails coming!

New review for Hoax #3 edited by Karl Kressbach, and yes I am still alive, I was just taking advantage of that extra long weekend.  Things should be getting back to normal around here, although I find myself a bit low on review comics, so if you have anything new out send it my way, as there’s no waiting in the review pile.  The comic rental idea seems to be slowly coming together (but keep sending me your comments) and I’m coming around to the idea of compensating the individual creators when their books get rented.  Something in the realm of 3 to 5 cents per rental would go back the creator, probably on a yearly basis, subject to change once I get things rolling and see what I’m dealing with in reality.  I’d love to pay a one time licensing fee like the libraries do, but unless Bill Gates or the Turtles people are reading this and want to hand me a pile of money to get started I just don’t have the resources.  Oh, and if you don’t want your comics included in this for whatever reason, they won’t be included.  I promise not to leave any bitchy messages anywhere complaining about any specific person or hold any grudges.
