Anyway else read the article over at Newsarama about China's first Super-Human team?
All Grant Morrison concepts and some great JG Jones character sketches.
Love Mother of Champions, the Celestial Archer, the Seven Deadly Brothers and Immortal Man in Darkness. Cool names and cool outfits.

Just thought I'd mention this here, as a way to keep track of the Great Ten's appearances in the DCU.
Checkmate #4-5, we had some members battling Fire & other Checkmate operatives.
In 52 week #32 (?) Enlonganated Man teamed up with Accomplished Perfect Phsycian in and outside of Nanda Parbat in probably the best written Great 10 appearance to date. It was really good, and I liked the two of them paired together--I hope I see it again. APP is probably my favorite member right now, which isn't really fair as he's the only one to get such good treatment so far. Looking forward to more from him.

Just thought I'd bump this since a new Great Ten series will be announced soon. I know someone who checks these things will correct me, but am I right in recalling that Peter Milligan's name might be attached to this?
(Lurkers-watch this, if I'm wrong, someone will be on me in like 2 seconds )
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
Peter Milligan is on Infinity, Inc.
The Great Ten is an all-Asian creative team.
Posted by superboymddjr on :
thought that Grant Morrison would write them - after all - isn't he the one who created them in the first place? So how is he be on "all-Asian team"? You mean he's leading the team?
note: I am unable to access anything with the hyperlink since it s being firewalled and being filtered out (newsarama has a "game" on their website and it's blocked unfortunately so not allowed at work!)

I don't think Morrison's involved in it.
Some guy called Tien Pham is the writer. I forget the artist.

A vietnamese guy writing an all Chinese Super hero group? Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
Yeah, somebody compared to it to trying to make a British super-hero team "authentic" by having a French guy write it.
Posted by superboymddjr on :
is there a Chinese representative from the Global Guardians? I was thinking of Thunderlord who is now deceased..and what about Gloss or RAM of the New Guardians? one of them is chinese, correct?
Posted by Nightcrawler on :
Gloss is Chinese. RAM is Japanese.
