ChangeWatch: Todd Allen tracks changes in DC creator solicitations from issue 1s to issue 7s for The Beat. Sadly he misses out special mention for those titles where creative teams have changed twice…

WolvieWatch: Did Wolverine commit statuatory rape?

BaseballWatch: When the Justice League fought the super villains… at baseball.

KidWatch: Marvel cancels their kids line… for now.

PreviewWatch: Brian Wood and Becky Cloonan's Conan The Barbarian #1.

IronWatch: Matt Fraction talks about his upcoming plans for Iron Man.

"I've always loved Iron Man's rogues' gallery, so I wanted to bring them all back and amp them up and crank them up before setting them free into the world again," Fraction explained. "I made a very big list and then refined it several times. I ended up with about a baker's dozen of my favorites and I think Iron Man fan-favorites that we've wanted to see and have been waiting to see. All of them are going to be coming back one after the next and they're all going to be extremely dangerous and capable in their own way. All of them pile more and more pressure on Stark."

WorstContinuityFlubEverWatch: Huffington Post goes Fanboy Central as Gary Russko kicks off over modern comic book continuity.

"So the entire Marvel Universe has to deal with a pissed off God, Spider-Man has to deal with roughly 7 million other spider-people and the X-Men have to deal with each other. Sure, I'll buy that it's all happening at the same time. I'll even buy Wolverine wanting to run a school (I'm actually really looking forward to that), but come on guys, Avengers Tower fell in one issue, then two issues later it's back up about to be attacked? Maybe I'm just nitpicking, but that doesn't seem right."

This is Computo the Comic Link Conqueror speaking. I come for your women. But for now I merely collate comic-related bits and pieces online. One day I will rule. Until that day, read on.

They say I am a work in progress. The fools.
