Buying digital comics is akin to the old saying, 'I have a bridge to sell you!' Visit the FULL FRONTAL FANDANGO & laugh along with Lash at http://lashlaugh.wordpress.com/

If they not in a print format...they should automatically be cheaper (no ink being used, no paper being used.) I feel the same about regular books as well. I understand a little for storage needs, but it can be nowhere near what printing costs are. The publishers haven't come out and said it as such, but the driving cost factor for the last 15 years or so has been increasing creator pay and health care. Plus with the shrinking sales (excluding the turnaround from DCU), they charge higher and higher prices to maintain profit margins. Although with Marvel, they've gotten rather greedy and gone to excess - on many levels. Also on DC digital titles, they lower the price to 1.99 after the digital issue has been on sale for a month.

I already asked him a few questions there, but then I was already using those boards (and have pretty much a complete set of Spider-Girl). He says that he researches every assignment, including the Legion, that he hadn't heard of the DC boards before I told him, and his answer about using other characters was vague. You can go there at http://www.comicboards.com/spidergirl/ but I would not suggest an inrush of Defalco-bashers.

I thought Firestar was well-written back in the day. I don't think Tom's stuff is horrible -- but it's not very inspired.
