Image Comics does another thing right
While the article mentioned Image Direct where you can subscribe to physical issues of their comics via mail, I'm actually more a fan of the fact that they will also sell DRM-free, high-res PDF, ePub, CBZ and CBR copies of their releases directly via their site, which for me is a much better offer than physical copies - I live in Europe so shipping would be killer, and since my fucking upstairs ex-neighbor managed to flood my home and especially the room I kept my books, comics, DVDs and CDs in twice I've gone almost all-digital for my entertainment.
Also, it helps that Image - while having a few long-running superhero series (Spawn, Savage Dragon, the just ended Invinicible,
...) and some reboots (Cyberforce, Witchblade, Kick-Ass, ...) - also releases a variety of series in all kinds of genres, many also rather short instead of the endless same-y stream coming from Marvel and DC, like:Blood Stain, Chew, Curse Words, Death Or Glory, Death Vigil, Descender, Postal/Think Tank/The Tithe/Eden's Fall, Elsewhere, The Fix, The Fuse, I Hate Fairyland, Lazarus, Low, Monstress, Paper Girls, Rat Queens, Revival, Royal City, Saga, Scales & Scoundrels, Sex Criminals, Sunstone, Tokyo Ghost, Wayward and The Wicked + The Divine

Re:Is aggression really survival+ for tech. societ
The costs of the big powers going to war is just too high for everyone (rational) to bear. So instead we trade, more or less peacefully.
Oddly enough, Saga depicts a war with costs along those lines. As a result, both sides "outsource" the conflict and have the native populations of other planets fight on their behalf.

Re distinction between graphic novels and comics.
You know, you're absolutly right. My comment within my post does come off as dismissive. That was not my intent. I guess I was in jerk mode when I wrote that line. Now that I'm aware, it won't happen again.
As for the distinction between comics and graphic novel... I think this link addresses it very well. -
Re:Why Black and White?I'm going to divide your paragraph into two, because I don't think you meant to say color = quality. At least I hope not.
:) If you did, please do an Ansel Adams query on Google immediately.
Is there a reason that most online comics are in Black and White? Is it a cost issue? A resource issue?
More than anything, I would said it's a tradition issue. There is a long-standing Sunday-in-color, rest-of-the-week-B&W tradition in newspaper comics.
While IANACA (...not a comics artist), how complicated color is to add would depend on how they produce the color work initially: manually or digitally. Coloring by hand takes a lot of time. Using a paintbucket in an illustration program doesn't take much at all.
I hope that a site like this will bring better quailty to the acutal art of on-line comics.
Same here, or at least brings more exposure to the quality comics out there. Witness PvP's announcement that their real-world books are going to be relaunched under the banner of Image Comics. Go Scott! :)
Online comics (and I don't mean web versions of print comics) have a long way to go before reaching the same 'credibility' with the non-online world as their traditional counterparts. People like Scott Kurtz are pushing the boundaries for what influence an online comic can have offline. It might take a generation or two of people getting more news online than off for digital comics to reach the same mindshare as, say, a Cathy or Doonesbury.
Slightly offtopic, I miss Bloom County and Calvin & Hobbes more every day I open the newspaper. -
If video game consoles were comic books....
...GameCube would be Marvel: continuously re-introducing old popular titles in the hope that old fans with new incomes will buy them and restore the company's fortunes.
...Sega would be Image: beautiful graphics time after time, but slow to realize that's not enough to keep them from crashing and burning.
...Sony would be Vertigo: late to the party, but chock-full of great stories with some truly radical, if not entirely beautiful, graphics.
...Microsoft would Dark Horse: rather than creating anything great on their own, buy up everyone else's popular ideas and market the hell out of them. -

Todd MacFarlane hit on this idea way back when with Image Comics. The creator of any particular comic owns all rights to it. Image
