[skund]

WildCATS #27 Written by ADAM BEECHEN Art by TIM SEELEY & ANDY SMITH Cover by CHRIS SPROUSE & KARL STORY The shocking secret of Aeon throws the Wildcats into chaos as Earth rips itself apart so that a universe might be saved! Meanwhile, Voodoo and Sir Edwin return to the Garden of Ancestral Memory for any help they can get and find it's become a shockingly different place since they last visited. Lynch and Grunge get rude surprises, Spartan returns to action, and Ladytron makes a few unusual new friends. Anyone picking this up? Will a new Doctor be announced soon? Is Habib really gone? Apollo's prominent on the cover! Does that mean he'll actually feature in this issue? (Answer: no). Does anyone even read this series any more?

Thanks for the link! My local comic shop actually sells out of WildCATS pretty quickly so I haven't been able to get issues. I flipped through #27 in store, but I didn't like anything I saw so I left it (the last copy left) for someone else to buy.

That must be crushing for Beechen, to have the series pulled out from under him with so little notice. Pretty poor management too. I really want some closure on Jenny and Habib or the new Doctor. And the team reunited. But all that in two issues? Oh dear...

You know what? We should start a reread through The Authority in January. I know a number of people who've wanted to get into the title and it would be a nice way to keep the series alive. I've got all the issues in .cbr, could put them up for download.

Oh, a re-read is a great idea! I've got digital versions of Ellis' run but not the rest (I'd be delighted to grab some more of it on download). It'd be nice to get some more people on here discovering the awesomeness that is Authority (slightly painful thought the nostalgia may be, now that WS is down the tubes).

Awesome! I'll work out the logistics and stuff. I have, er, just under 2 gig of Authority and related stuffs.

It's not nostalgia, it's saying "fuck you DC, you can't take our Authority!"
