        Off the top of my head, I can't think of anyone they've lured away from
DC.  Admittedly, several of their artists got their start at DC, but were then
lured to Marvel.
	And I suggest you re-examine the circumstances under which X-Force was
created or under which Chris Claremont left the X-Men before you start claiming
that the Image creators did not have creative control over their characters.

	Nah.  I'll take a mildly amusing Lobdell story (like Gnort in GLQ, even
with the misspelled "parameter" :-) over McFarlane's "His webbing...
Advantageous!" any day.  And Nicieza took Defalco's "Teen Avengers" and 
actually tried to do something with "The New Warriors".  At the very least, 
both men know what a story is.
	You also have an interesting definition of "marketing scams" if you
don't think the Image creators are engaging in them.

comics out there that I don't have to spend time on the merely adequate.

You mean Sedra.  Sepra is a place (the capital of the Sepran Empire,
in fact).

By the way... somebody in another post mentioned that Cirin was awake
and that her god-figure was still male.  I'd like to suggest that
this panel is no more than Cirin thinking about her dream, rather
than some visible manifestation.  This may be on the obvious side,
but with Cerebus conversations on the net, it's usually worth it
to point such things out.

Okay, so that answers the question that people have been asking here.
Unless Sim changes his mind on this, the resurrections result from

	Okay, in a 4 ish run of Dr Strange around #60, Strange destroys
all vampires with the Montessi Formula, which is one of the spells in
the Darkhold (he had the help of the cast of Nightstalkers, plus 
Wong, in a very agressive role).  
	It seems that the Montesi Formula in the Darkhold is what
created Vampires in the first place.  Strange used the Darkhold to
break the spell, destroying all vampires, except Hannibal King, 
who had never drunk "the blood of the living"  (whether that means
he was a bottle boy, or used animals, or just plain starved).  HK
died, but it was a "mortal death" so Strange was able to ressusitate him
with standard medical techniques.  
	Somehow, someone got hold if the MF and used it to bring back vampires.

There was an indie rock album put out a few years ago with this same title.
I think it was by the band "My Dog Popper".  In any case, I'm pretty sure that
this is the first appearance of the title (c. 1988-89).

Dr Strange read the Montessi formula from the Drakholm while in Baron Mondo's
castle, with Dracula imprisoned in front of him and was accompanied by
Wong, Drake, and (drat.  forgot his name.  The detective vampire).

Unfortunately, he re-created the vampire plague by reciting some verses from
the book of the Vashanti over his brother's body, "turning" him.

Well, the store where I have a pull can afford to give a 20% discount on books 
in the pull, so figure that they have to pay at least 60% of the cover price 
for them, probably more toward 65%.  So of the comic dollar, 35(gee, my 
keyboard has no cents sign) goes to the store.  The figure about 5 cents goes 
to the shippers (bulk rate) and another 5-15 cents to the distributor.  That 
leaves 45-55 cents for the company.  Probably at least 25 cents goes to the 
printer (full color comic costs more per page than newspaper, so it's probably 
about this price).  That leaves 20-30 cents to pay the creative teams, the rent
on the building, misc overhead and so forth.  Probably the profit margin on 
comics is 10%.

I won't crow too much about having guessed who had the Starbrand within two 
months of the New U issue.  Anyway, a love triangle is kinda moot, considering 
that Quasar is dead (yes, again, but this time they seem to mean it) and a 
successor has already been appointed, namely the cosmic embryo from a few 
issues back.  Not only does this title wrap up all its *own* plotlines, it 
seems to be a clearinghouse for wrapping up other people's obscure plotlines.  
New U, Questprobe, Her/Kismet, Marvel Boy I, What Happens When You Get 
Nullified, Presence/Red Guardian II, and almost Rocket Raccoon, but Byrne 
seized that one once he was brought in on the Stranger's world.  Kinda a nice 
title to read after mucking thru the X-books (except for E*calibur, which is 
tying up plotlines almost as quickly as Quase).

I don't, but a friend of mine is thinking of asking Evan Dorkin to design

I'm an aspiring writer, and I can honestly say that I would NOT work with Todd
McFarlane.  The guy is a horrendous artist, which is most important, and has a
huge head and a mouth to match it.  I'd sooner punch him in the face than work
with him.

He complains about how Ditko and Kirby were treated (which I am a strong
supporter of), but do you see him contributing any part of his MILLIONS to
help them out?  After all, he did make a career out of their creations.

Have you tried Bone, from Jeff Smith's Cartoon Books label?  It's way cool
stuff.  Then there's Grendel, Cerebus, Xenozoic Tales and Concrete.  Those
last two come out irregularly, but are worth the wait.  Plus, there are back
issues.

On the other hand, if you don't see Sandman as "quality material" (as you

for you. :-)

The backgrounds in each panel had little stories going on (e.g. a woman

Unfortunately, I don't recall the artist's name (Mary something) but I
