I’ve ofter said one of my main beefs with the X-Men films is that Scott should be a leader second only to Captain America. Of course, before the Marvel films, no one knew what I meant.

Now they do but they just can’t see it, having only seen the films.

& then there is the crap Marvel put him through.

Thank you for restoring the Scott I grew up with

Don't know who to feel more sorry for: Storm or Wolverine. "Pretty much cooked right through!" Gruesome! 

All this weekend, I've been telling my customers to check out the pages on this site. One, who has seen some of the pages, talked about how great they looked.

Fun stuff! 

Pages on Facebook and Twitter that use your name can get more views than any thread on your actual site because of this phenomenon. And the only reason those fake accounts get so many views is because of the use of your name, proving there is interest in your work by many more fans out there.

It's very odd to say, considering that visiting another website is a matter of a few keystrokes,  but frankly it seems too many people are simply too lazy to seek out and come to the site. Easier for them to search out a Byrne related account on the social media site they already use daily and absorb any new news or work from and about you there, in an indirect and distorted fashion typically. 

This is the modern world, sadly. 

Look how many people praise the art in comments on those Twitter posts, or comments on things like the SyFy video interview. Yet,  it's obvious these genuine fans of your art don't bother come to this website, if they are even aware of it.

Heck,  most everyone that buys comics from my business knows your work, and the great majority of them are fans. However, it surprises me how many seem unaware of this site, or have heard about it and never checked it out. 

One thing I can say for sure is that the numbers for the fan fiction thread are not truly indicative of the potential audience for a print version of the series.

Would be interesting to see their numbers.

I posted page one as an advert for my friends to come to this site, but only page one.

& yes, I agree with Matt - I’ve been following this development since its start but found out it was being published from a Facebook page. It then took me a while to find it as I didn’t realise it was in the fanfic area, & then that area doesn’t announce its existence on the main page.

A lot easier to find these pages @ the strip mining sites @ the moment.
