Welcome back! We missed you! Time for the 2008 Election Day Daily Mega Comics Group Updates!

Here at last! We have survived another election cycle! PLEASE, whatever you do, go out and vote! Vote one time, please. Only live, real, voters, please! Vote for who you think will do the best job in the office. If everyone will follow these simple rules we’ll get this taken care of today and not be recounting votes until Christmas or beyond!

Now with that Public Service Announcement out of the way, let’s get to what we all came here today for, shall we? Yes, we shall!

Humants #4:

Today we have the debut of Humants #4. As I wrote yesterday this was not the original cover for this issue either. We’ll save that for the back cover similar to how we did the covers for # 3. The original cover was the pin-up of The Herald we featured on page 31 of last issue, which was done by none other than Mark Poe, the artist. As publisher, Mr. Poe elected to use this awesome Christopher Torres illustration instead of his own work? Why? Well, as I wrote yesterday since we were trying to establish a place in the market we needed the best covers which would get the distributor’s, comic shop owner’s, and fan’s attention. The original Herald cover certainly would have filled that criteria, but the Torres art was done in that often mentioned Art Adams/Jim lee Style which later lead to the beginning of Image Comics. In other words, it was HOT in the market at the time, so the publisher went with what was hot! It was not who’s art was better on this issue, or the last, but really only a matter of who’s cover would jump out and grab attention MORE and hopefully generate more sales! ’nuff said

This issue features the all out war between the Humants and the Renegade Humants! It’s action from cover to cover as Freazie White, Jr. writes and does finished pencils over Mark Poe’s layouts and we introduce a new inker, Paul Schulze! This one would look great in color if we only had the time, but it rocks out in black and white too! Enjoy!

Project New Man # 4:

The Fortress Fighters have all the fun don’t they? They are the ones that get to clean up after the major battle between New Man and the Thunder Hawks verses Cyber-Tech. Even though he can’t move, Cyber-Tech is fully conscious, and his cyber-suit is busy working on a way to override the jammer Chief Thunder clamped unto it to render him immobile. Using the special special lift cart, no doubt designed by Bearcat, the plan is move him across the carpeted Living Room area of the top floor of the Moriah Building out to the balcony. There a chain/cable dangling down from a hovering crane copter awaits to hook the cyborg up to, so they can then haul him off to a special detention facility. Yeah, that’s the Fortress Fighter’s plan, but Cyber-Tech has other plans!

Any questions of comments? All are welcome.
