Default DC Announces Milestone Forever



Awesome. Nice to see this project is finally moving along. Hopefully it turns out better than the ill-fated Red Circle event.

Though I dislike that they are once again not using Static's original Milestone design.

I know darling, but like it or not that's the design most people are more fammiliar with, outside of comics. I'm guessing DC are trying to bring in fans of the cartoon by using it.

Also YAY! More Donner and Blitzen. Those two won me over in their quick appearance in JLA. So very cute It was also nice to see a gay couple in comics without it being a big deal, with it just being shown matter of factly. We need more of that in comics and the media

Bring back Negasonic Teenage Warhead! Because there are more people who want to see her in the X Books than there are who want to see Jean Grey again.

Of all DC's upcoming projects this has me the most nervous. I don't want Renee to be another pointless, gratuitous death in this whole "Blackest Night" thing. I've already had to watch three characters I like killed off in a stupid and insulting fashion, I don't want DC to make it four

Exactly. Though thankfully, not all artists draw him with the horrid pirate boots.

I know that. I was pointing out that THANKFULLY, certain artists don't draw Virgil with the god awful pirate boots.

Does anybody find the title really ironic? As in, will this be the LAST thing DC does with the Milestone characters, at least in a long while? (Unless they strike it big with fans, but I don't really expect that.)

Too bad; I always liked the concept behind the Milestone characters (more minority heroes) but I never liked the characters themselves; except Static, and only after he was seriously re-tooled for the TV show.
