That editors (censors?) would be so self-intimidated as to not "consider the source," not trust their experienced artists, to be so cowed as to embarrass their very profession, says way too much about how America has changed in the last nine years. If you cannot say a word, then all "terrorists win" jokes aside, the terrorists win.

Transmedia to launch mixed media comic

The "Are You Awake" property follows the model of another Canadian Internet-to-primetime transplant, Syfy's "Sanctuary," and has signed up genre actors Ryan Robbins ("Stargate: Atlantis"), Alana Husband, Jessica Harmon and Michael Eklund for a web series.

But that's what Marvel did with review PDF access when someone leaked ads for Secret Avengers and OMIT on to the internet. They shut down the review PDF system for everyone. They didn't just limit it to more trusted sources (though there was no way of knowing whether the leak came from a retailer or a reviewer). They didn't decide to make PDFs without ads available (which, personally speaking, should have been the norm to begin with). An advertisement from a book was shared publicly a day or two early, so they pulled all access to reviewable product from all outlets.
