Is Imitation the Finest Form of Flattery?
Wednesday, in his latest Blog@Newsarama entry, Top Cow E-i-C Filip Sablik addressed an issue that seems to be getting more and more attention these days - the future of comic books online and on mobile devices.
More specifically, Sablik wondered aloud what will be the correct price point for downloadable comic books if and when the distribution channel gains real popularity and a viable revenue model for publishers presents itself.

Comic Box reviews The Darkness #76 (in French)
On pouvait s’en douter (je m’étonne même qu’on ne nous ait pas gardé ça pour le #75), Jackie, l’ex-Darkness, ne pouvait travailler qu’un temps pour un patron infernal qui lui demande aussi bien de tuer des bonnes sœurs que des enfants en bas âge. Bon, d’accord, leurs corps ne sont que des façades, possédées par des démons et des spectres. Mais n’empêche. Après un début d’épisode qui nous montre que si Jackie a des états d’âmes, il est prêt à aller très loin avant que ceux-ci ne se manifestent (prouvant par la même occasion qu’il reste quelque chose en lui du bâtard naguère créé par Garth Ennis…), l’anti-héros flanque sa démission au visage du Sovereign… Qui prend les choses assez bien. Bien plus qu’on aurait pu le croire. Peut-être sait-il ce qui se prépare ?

Girls Entertainment Network reviews The Darkness #76
Life has been especially trying lately for the shadow-walking gangster Jackie Estacado. The link between him and the Darkness was severed after he “died” (to be brought back shortly by his kindred dark forces), now preventing him from being able to tap into more than a mere fraction of its raw power. Not to mention his soul currently burns in hell, and the only way to reclaim it involves doing the bidding of an evil hell lord called the Sovereign. Estacado must cross off every name on the Sovereign’s “you-owe-me” list—and by “cross off” I mean whack—before his new boss will make good on his deal to restore Jackie’s soul; the tasks aren’t pretty and continue to test Jackie’s limitations.

Quarter Bin reviews The Darkness #76
When we last saw Jackie, he was still the Sovereign’s errand boy, collecting old debts in order to save his soul from eternal torment. Of course, this is no simple task, and requires the murder of those living with borrowed souls thanks to the Sovereign. Jackie is clearly at his wit’s end, wondering if anything can be worth the torment of seemingly endless killing.

I rewatched "American Gangster" the other night with Russell Crowe and Denzel Washington in it. It really is a tremendous movie and I enjoyed it even more the second time around than I did the when I first saw it in the theater.
I started sketching a big linebacker type guy while I was watching and then influenced by all of the great 70s era costuming in the movie he turned into a big moustached cop.

This week is yet another busy one here at TC HQ, so rather than one long form entry I thought I’d jot down a few scattered thoughts. Particularly since I’m already a week behind my normal Blog@Newsarama schedule.
Topic 1: I had an interesting conversation recently where the conversation of what the correct price point for digital comics is. Should it be the same as the printed comic so as to not disadvantage brick and mortar comic retailers? Follow the iTunes model of 99¢ per issue? Or is it free?

iFanboy reviews Top Cow including Witchblade, The Darkness, & Pilot Season
Historically a haven for style of substance comic books with a heavy emphasis on heaving bosoms and overly revealing costumes on the female characters, Top Cow Productions has garned a bit of a reputation in the comic book world. As a result, the guys at iFanboy haven't paid much attention to Top Cow's comic books, save for Rising Stars and Midnight Nation from J. Michael Straczynski.
And then at a recent comic book convention, the publisher of Top Cow, Filip Sablik, challenged iFanboy to take a look at some of Top Cow's comics and give them a fair shake. With a brand new direction for its flagship titles he felt confident that the iFanboys would like would they had to offer.
Challenge accepted!

Faerber Talks Witchblade Annual 2009
Top Cow has published “Witchblade” in one form or another for the last 15 years, but in all that time there has never been a “Witchblade Annual"… until now. CBR news caught up with writer Jay Faerber to get the details on the first-ever “Witchblade Annual 2009.”
Faerber’s portion of the 40-page annual puts Witchblade bearer Sara Pezzini and her partner Gleason in the high stakes world of plastic surgery. “Sara and Gleasoninvestigate a series of murders committed by gorgeous women who've all had plastic surgery,” Faerber told CBR. “I can't say anything more about the story without giving it away. But I will say it's completely self-contained. You don't need to know anything about ‘Witchblade’ continuity to appreciate it.”

Fanboy Review reviews Witchblade #125
Writer – Ron Marz
Artist – Stjepan Sejic
Publisher – Top Cow Comics
The Grade – 4 out of 5
From the Top Cow solicitation - For more than a year now, the Witchblade has been split between two bearers—NYPD Detective Sara Pezzini and dancer Danielle Baptiste—and they have coexisted peacefully. But that’s all about to end. Beginning in this issue, the six-part “War of the Witchblades” arc will change Sara, Dani and the Witchblade forever. Sara has been Dani’s friend and mentor, but now she becomes her bitter enemy. By the end of the storyline, only ONE bearer will remain.

War of the Witchblades: A New Look
Being asked to put together a new take on an existing idea is sort of like being asked to sleep with your best friend's wife. You simply don't do it. Especially not if the existing idea is working for you and doesn't require any, pardon the pun, screwing with.
That being said, you can imagine there was some hesitation on my part when I was approached by Top Cow Publisher and my secret admirer, Filip Sablik, to redesign the Witchblade logo for the six-issue story arc "War of the Witchblades." The idea was simple enough, we wanted to create a limited, new look for this arc, something that would let everyone know that this was one of the most important and consequential stories ever told in the pages of “Witchblade.” The redesign would include the Witchblade logo itself, as well as the cover design, and all of it was meant to work together to let the fans know this wasn't going to be just a simple girl fight between current bearers Sara and Dani -- no, this was going to be an all out war.

‘Wanted’ Commercial Banned in UK For Glamorizing Violence
Universal Pictures and The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) are butting heads over Angelina Jolie’s gunplay in an advertisement for the big-screen adaptation of “Wanted” that was recently launched in the UK. The film, based on the Top Cow comic by Mark Millar and J.G. Jones, doused itself in bullets and over-the-top violence when it hit theaters in 2008, but the regulation agency now says Jolie makes guns look way too attractive for television.

Broken Frontier reviews Witchblade #125
A lot has been happening in this title in the last few years. Writer Ron Marz and artist Stjepan Sejic are the best team this title has ever had and have given the formerly one-note series a newfound respect. It deserves it. They’ve taken the original (in the current context) fan fave ‘blade wielder, Sara Pezzini and given her a supporting cast and a naturally developing plot. Sure this is a book about a female cop waging battle against the supernatural with an ancient mystical amulet, but in Marz’s deft hands it has never descended into the soap opera antics inherent in modern superhero books.

365 Days of 'The Darkness' - Phil Hester On His First Year
Well, it hasn't technically been 365 days, but with the upcoming (March 25th) 76th issue of Top Cow's re-numbered The Darkness, writer Phil Hester will celebrate his first year, or in comic book terms, 12 issues, on the title. Originally created by Garth Ennis and Marc Silvestri, the story of a young mob hitman turned wielder of one of the Top Cow universe's most powerful mystical forces has taken some interesting turns under Hester, including setting up its star Jackie Estacado as a South American drug lord/dictator and god-like creator of sentient life.

I thought it was a fun, far flung adventure and the interpretation of the epic poem was interesting. I didn't mind the CG, but I'm not sure it really added anything to the film for me.

ComicNews reviews Witchblade #125
When you get asked to write a review for a story like Witchblade you get excited, but when you get asked to write a review for the #125 milestone issue you can’t possibly express how you feel. I say that because being able to write this review is tremendous for me, Witchblade is one of Top Cow’s main titles and one of its longest lasting titles as well. Witchblade has always been an interesting concept and it has truly stood the test of time. I got the e-mail about writing this review and within five minutes of getting it I was reading the issue, and preparing my thoughts for the review directly after. Not an hour after receiving the initial email I am writing a review for Witchblade. If that can’t explain how excited I was to do this, than I don’t know what can.

Comicvine reviews Witchblade #125
I've mentioned before that I'm a fan of Witchblade. Especially with Marz and Sejic on board. Things look like they're about to get crazy with Sara's recent disappointment with Dani. What Sara did for Dani did seem a little out of place and I could see why she'd be pissed. I am surprised that it's going to result in this "War."
This is the "Landmark" 125th anniversary issue. Maybe with "War Of The Witchblades" looming, I was prepared for some really kick ass action. Unfortunately, it didn't really happen...yet. The seeds are being planted. I understand we can't have a full blown, knock down fight in the first part. Reading it a second time, I started seeing different plot twists that may be on the horizon.

CC2K reviews Witchblade #125
This issue struck me as the equivalent to really good boxing match. Before the fight, sides are shown, both fighters are given back stories, and it is up to the viewer to figure out: who’s the better of the two? Also, WB #125’s story sort of flows similarly to a boxing fight. It begins with Sara, how her life is going, her love life, and her relationship with her sister. Artist Stjepan Sejic (brilliantly draws each issue) lightly show’s Sara’s rage and power by characterizing her Witchblade with a red and bronze glow. Dani is portrayed as having a little bit of an ego, a questioned sexuality, and her thoughts and good intentions are shown to be from the heart. Her Witchblade has a blue and silver glow that hints of purity, innocence, and good nature. Is this a sign of light verses dark? Sara and Dani use the Witchblade with such different methods and mentalities; this promised fight could be immense.
4.0 out of 5.

Blog@Newsarama reviews Wanted: Weapons of Fate
Usually when a game ties in to a movie, the aim is to release it alongside the film, or at the latest alongside the DVD. However, some developers and publishers have actually recognized that movie tie-in games tend to, well, suck, and have elected to do what they can to buck the trend and produce some quality games that happen to tie-in to movies. The upcoming X-Men Origins: Wolverine game was actually being developed before they got a license for the movie, and includes a whole bunch of new content written by Marc Guggenheim. The most popular movie last year, The Dark Knight, skipped the movie tie-in altogether; instead, Warner is releasing an original game that has more to do with the comics than the movies this summer with Arkham Asylum.

Top Cow develops innovative approach to selecting content, selling comics
A period of serious change has been a long time coming for the comics industry. New influences — from independent publishers on one end of the spectrum to Hollywood on the other — steadily have made interest in the medium both more prolific and more eclectic. Combine that growing interest with a waning economy and you have an audience that is at once demanding and discriminating. The time has come for a renaissance, and burgeoning companies like LA based Top Cow Productions eagerly are seeking ways to adapt and take advantage of the moment.
