Heh, Marvel stealing more Image stuff.

So....they're going to rerelease all the single issues instead of just releasing trades of the recolored issues? Why? For the money?

[Awesome!]

Heh, Marvel stealing more Image stuff.

Casanova is not "Image stuff" it is "Fraction stuff" and he can do whatever he wants with it. After reading the article it seems like he is happy with the move. I am very excited about this personally.

"We're recoloring and relettering everything. It's going to be in full color."
The pics look good, but I really liked the color setup in the original issues/series from Image. The one color approach to each volume. I would pass on the remix if not for the new 8 page story. Not surprised it's moving to Icon, as this seemed like an obvious move considering Fraction's Marvel work. Glad I have the first two volumes in their original form though. My biggest concern is price now that it's with Icon.

YESSS!! Thank you, Matt Fraction and Marvel. Casanova + Fraction + Marvel = friggin' brilliance.

... but what's the difference between Marvel Icon and regular Marvel?

I love the color in the original too, but I heard it was waaaaay expensive and time-consuming. If we can out more Casanova with different but still high quality colors, I'm all for it.

More Casanova in any form is indeed good. I'll just suck it up and deal with the change. Make Mine Casanova Quinn!

Took the words right out of my mouth. I'm glad to hear that there'll finally be more Cass being released.

[StarsAndGarters]

My head just exploded. This is very unexpected.

It's time to make Icon comparable to DC's Vertigo.

ICON is Marvel's creator owned comics line.

The stories don't have any connection story-wise to the Marvel Universe comics.

Thanks! I'll check the link out now ... I'm pretty sure Millar's Nemesis is Icon, too, right?
