I am incredibly excited that it was the oddball books that won! (http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=18112)

I am totally buying every issue of Twilight Guardian!

Nope. Genius was O.K at best, though I wasn't impressed.

As for Twilight Guardian, I've said it before, I thought it was the weakest out of all of the books this season.

Damn, I thought Urban Myths would've been one of the winners.

Thanks, Double J!

I'm pretty excited, too. I'll try to live up to your faith in the book.

...and heck yesterday I was only your personal stalker :biggrin: . You did one heck of a job pimping your own book, I couldn't turn around and not see Twilight Guardian. I will be picking up the series (feel free to consult with me on your go to market strategy) but unfortunately for me the best book of the Pilot Season was not a winner and I think it is time to make Top Cow aware.

Feel free to sign the petition :wink: or send an e-mail asking for more Jack Medusa and Urban Myths.

Brik, given how often you and I run into each other, I'm not sure which of us is the better stalker. Maybe we should pool our talents and form an internet PR agency (or an internet PI agency; you get to wear the mask).

Oddly enough I am already wearing a mask :rolleyes:

....thanks for signing it.

Genius was the book I voted for. I only read a couple of the pilots though.

If you read it and liked it then you are one happy man right now as it was a winner. The book wasn't my tasted (has nothing to do with the WE Factor) I just didn't get it (I am slow at times).

My rankings were:
1) Urban Myths
2) The Core
3) Twilight Guardian
4) Alibi
5) Genius
6) Lady Pendragon

I liked the CORE the best. Jonathan Hickman is writing really cool stuff right now. I didnt care for Urban Myths, Genius was OK, and I havent read Twilight Guardian. I guess I will pick up the next issue that comes out.

They still have all of the issues online for free (sorry you didn't like UM)

There is no guarantee that I will actually like the series. I just liked the pilot. The Core did seem interesting, but I'm generally not interested in hard sci-fi stories. I prefer street level stuff, so I voted for Genius.
