I think comics should be popping up in more places, now that the actual issues dont sell as well. I really wish DC had a digital service like Marvel, I'm a Marvel reader but I really want to go check out some "recent" dc books I missed because there has been a lot of positive hype.

Superhero comics in strip form aren't awesome.

I'd have to disagree bwps.
take a look at the strip they're producing.  Incredible artwork, unburdened by continuity, just fun short Superman stories. looks like a winner to me.  keep in mind USA Today is the highest selling paper in america. would be a nice kickstart to getting people to read the Wednesday Comics, and actually go into comic shops more often.

in defense of modern strip superheroics, i'd have to say that the Phantom was excellent, but a little slow paced, in this new format (full color, more than 3 panels) strip superhero comics could do well.

Color me very interested.  Aquaman is showing up in the Hawkman one, by the way.
