Re: Question about comics

[(Anonymous)]

Thanks!

(It's all the Crossgen titles. I'm not sure if they'd be considered "good" or not but I enjoyed them back when they were coming out. I'm not a hardcore comic person though so I'm not sure how they compare to more well known comics and characters. The company did go bankrupt after all but I figure they're diverse enough that most people will find at least one title to like.)

That's interesting! A lot of big names like Mark Waid and Ron Marz worked for them.

Apparently Disney owns 'em now.

Yeah, Marvel snapped them up and did a bit of a "reboot" a few years ago (not really the same characters or universe at all but using the same comic titles and character names).

I don't really know for sure, but I think it was a bit of a big deal when they started since they poached a bunch of talent from Marvel and DC. I think they were well received and getting good press. I think it's generally agreed that they went bankrupt because they expanded too fast and not because the titles sucked. They were known for being innovative in how they were selling comics (like they would print something like a TPB but instead of one title, it was all the new titles that came out that week, so you'd just buy that every week instead of the individual comics).

I think they might've been one of the first companies to offer online comics of some sort. It sounds like if they hadn't been so aggressive, they might still be around. It's a shame what happened.

Sounds more like the Japanese model? (monthlies like Shonen Jump & Chara Selection that group chapters from various similar titles )

Maybe. Unfortunately I'm not familiar with any Japanese titles. They do sound similar. Here's what Crossgen offered:

Re: Question about comics

It's a similar idea - an anthology-type publication.
