its good to have something to look forward to
I'm personally really excited about these. I hear some people say there won't be gore or foul language because it's being released by a DC company.
But, I saw a 4-page preview of the first issue and it looked fine. There was even a kill previewed in there. So, I don't know what the big uproar is about.
Avatar did a horrible job on the writing of the NOES comics IMO. The artwork wasn't that much better. I welcome the change and I agree it's nice to have something to look forward to.
Reminds me of the old days of NOES as a kid, with all the recent press attention it's getting, DVD releases, and the orginal returning to theatres.
If only we had a new film to go along with it. :)
"ManofyourDreams" please don't be too harsh on avatarpress makers, they did quite a wonderful work
with the nightmare saga (perhaps except the final release of :fearbook:) and wanted to make much more stories in the future, but somehow they got the "new line" license taken away.
i hope wildstorm makers would keep everything smooth and fit by the established "facts"
and freddy should remain the dark clown prince, i like when he shares his wisdom with the victims
(my opinion okay)
