It wouldn't have been sacrilige I don't think, would have elevated them slightly/maybe. I've definitely got a lot of coming up, however I do want to have a certain number of posts under my belt so that I can have some sort of credibility and to be honest I don't think I'll get the interviews I want until I've gotten the design of the site sorted out, that's comic book specific. One idea is to have an interview with the creators a week after the book has been released so that people can contribute to the discussion with the authors more constructively. So for the next month or so I expect to concentrate on my reviews and my weekly <strong>what's coming up</strong> and the upcoming Previews review as well.

Watchmen, V, 1602, LoEG, Batman - if it wasn't Xmas I'd have loaded up); really drab compared to the colour of something like Watchmen, and lacking the over-stylised feel of From Hell. I'll still probably go back to buy it in the sales, though. Any plans for some non-book-specific articles? Perhaps panel design (Watchmen 5?), artist profiles, writer interviews, that sort of thing?
