So it's out today in the USA. Obviously, there will be MASSIVE HUGE HUGENORMOUS SPOILERS because of the nature of the book. Seriously. SPOILERS.

Thoughts?

Why do all the books from Avatar give off an odor that makes me slightly nauseous? I'm not refering to the subject matter, but the actual, physical material. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=60294#Comment_60294 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=60294#Comment_60294 Wed, 18 Jun 2008 14:47:41 -0700 bschory
Absolutely fascinating premise though. Can't wait to see how it develops as we get more information about the whole constellation thing and begin peeking in to more of the invisible worlds. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=60408#Comment_60408 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=60408#Comment_60408 Wed, 18 Jun 2008 23:34:10 -0700 Egon

with some tweaking the constellation could resemble the tree of life. is that you Alan Moore?

mental instability makes her a natural for this complete mind fuck of a job. something that keeps popping up in my work. don't tell daddy.

you're not gonna leave that "half-constructed" thing just hanging, are you? because what the fuck. (is copious swearing allowed in whitechapel? i do love the f-word)

i dig the snow globe on Collier's desk while he explains the bubble worlds to the prime minister. tell me that's Nurnhiem. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=60535#Comment_60535 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=60535#Comment_60535 Thu, 19 Jun 2008 13:44:49 -0700 joe.distort http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=60537#Comment_60537 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=60537#Comment_60537 Thu, 19 Jun 2008 13:49:02 -0700 Egon

Well that was a hell of an explanation, Mr. Ellis. 9 imaginary planets wha??? I don't quite think I love this, but it could maybe be great, I guess... potentially. I might maybe keep reading it, I guess.

I like that reality is all straight edge yadda, and Anna swears like a trucker fucker. Bugger fuck shit! I like her, I want more of her, but I understand the necessity for context. Crazy crazy context. It's okay though, I think I get it, just... crazy. Whoa science fiction. But I expect a second issue with that much text will make for a remarkably interesting run... (what's this "2 of 5" miniseries bullshit?) And 9 planets is certainly enough to make some interesting statements about humanity. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=61193#Comment_61193 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=61193#Comment_61193 Sat, 21 Jun 2008 15:17:26 -0700 Jean_Ranvier
I'll be picking up issue 2 this week, along with No Hero issue 0, if I understood Mr. Ellis' most recent Bad Signal post correctly. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=62035#Comment_62035 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=62035#Comment_62035 Wed, 25 Jun 2008 13:26:59 -0700 Miranda's Eyes
The center page spread left me blinking slightly and wondering how the original script described this reconfigured moon. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=62063#Comment_62063 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=62063#Comment_62063 Wed, 25 Jun 2008 15:27:56 -0700 Harlotbug3 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=62125#Comment_62125 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=62125#Comment_62125 Wed, 25 Jun 2008 18:35:05 -0700 zoem http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=62479#Comment_62479 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=62479#Comment_62479 Fri, 27 Jun 2008 13:36:57 -0700 Cat Vincent ...is Anna's 'home Earth' one of the half-constructed ones?

The story so far (I think) implies not, but just maybe... and even if it is 'fully constructed' in comparison to the others, it may also be an artificial construct. Or were the others copies of her (our?) Earth?
And who made the bloody things??

Other than that - I agree about the abrupt transitions with the splash pages, but that may be a style thing, a kind of staccato jolt to the reader.

And Anna gets more adorable from page to page. Her facial expressions are a delight.

I liked the Philadelphia Experiment reference too - always a fun Fortean reference. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=62565#Comment_62565 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=62565#Comment_62565 Fri, 27 Jun 2008 22:40:48 -0700 Mark Seifert ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=62568#Comment_62568 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=2640&Focus=62568#Comment_62568 Fri, 27 Jun 2008 23:10:35 -0700 Cyman
Definitely very cool if any audience larger than general comic folk is learning Warren Ellis' name. I saw a stranger with Transmet glasses about a month ago and I'm still smiling about it. ]]>
