Amazing! I still haven't started reading the series though

Looks awesome, still haven't read any either (waiting for the TPB, it's easier for me), really can't wait for it to come out, still a while I know...

So far the Covers have been the high point of the AHM series.

Wish I was joking.

He he he

I read the McCarthy got upset on the Allspark when that board's members questioned him about the many continuity issues with his supposedly in-continuity series.

I'm not judging AHM's continuity at all until after IDW's "-ation" series has 'caught up' to it. I'm hoping that IDW delivers on their promise of AHM making sense after we see the bigger picture... if not, then all this fan angst will be justified. But I'm remaining impartial on it until we actually that 'bigger picture.'

Nice cover, but it does suggest the storyline has not progressed much since Issue 5, afterall this event could easily have happened in that issue. I hope that we have some suprises, and its not just Ironhide wrongly blaming Mirage.

I'm with Goktimus on the continuity to, so far there's been no visible atempt to tie the two, but we'll see.

Not sure if this covers all of them, but this would be some items IDW have to work towards matching:

But yeah, it's best to wait until afterwards to see if the 'bigger picture' works out in the end.

I dunno, don't you think they're justified now to make the call as to whether they're happy or not? They are the end consumer and the ones IDW want to come back each and every month. You can't keep telling people that this is something it's not and expect them to keep buying in the hope that all will be revealed.

It annoys me that the comic fandom is so fickle some times. Readers should not have to wait and see through to the end of an arc to justify their opinion. These guys went out there and bought the book and hated it. Fair enough. You didn't do a good job of making them want to come back. That's the nature of a serial book. You can hope that a reader holds out for your bigger picture but you can't turn around and have a swipe at those readers for not waiting out. I'm an old school loyalist myself. I'll read to the end of an arc before dropping but I perfectly understand why other people are frustrated and just vent and off and just leave. It's like watching a show on TV. If you don't like it, you switch off. This is a serial comic and you pay bloody good money for it ($7 these days, that's lunch!) and you goddamn right have a reason to be pissed off if the book isn't satisfied and people try to keep you on the hook by saying "wait n see, you'll be satisfied"

Personally, I'd like to have IDW just had this book announced as stand alone so that it got away from all the Furman stuff which though in principle was good, was pathetically executed. It would've also stopped this problem.
