first post!! yeah-a'hii-eyy!!
well, the x-mas card was so cool, so weird, so eerie, fascinating. and the cover of usa comics is interesting too, as an historical document.
well i would love to buy this new series but i can only afford to buy 4 comics per month ( of course all of them MARVEL, those are new iluminati and mighty avengers and WWH). The economical situation is critical in my country in general and in my house in particular.
the dolar here has a value of 3.5 soles ( the sol being the national money unit) and $2.99 comics here cost 15 soles (almost 5 bucks). The minimum wage here is 450 soles, you know money for all the month, just do the math boys.
Wish i would be in USA with a salary of say 3000 bucks per month, no doubt i would spent 100 bucks per month entirely in Marvel Comics.
Anyway as they say, someday baby someday...

Neat! Chris Weston is one of the nicest, maddest people I've ever met. It'd be great if you could buy that card off him and use it as a promotional item (given that 12 starts the month after Christmas).

The Twelve
I didn't have much interest in this project when I first saw the announcement but on a whim I read one of the articles on this particular series, which led me to read others, and I have been won over. I'm now very interested and very much looking forward to this series.
My question to you, Mr. Brevoort, is this - will these characters be available for use in the modern day Marvel Universe when this maxi series is over? Will this series place these golden age heroes into current continuity? I really, really hope the answer is yes.

Who are you talking about Rawnzilla? Didn't catch it.
Love the card, especially the toothy grin, like he KNOWS what is in those packages. Makes me laugh.
