Wildstorm must be switching to trade format
If the following news about Wildstorm's plans for comics they're publishing based on World of Warcraft and Star Craft is any suggestion, this is another sign of how monthly periodical format is being abandoned:
DC Comics' Wildstorm division has been handling a monthly comic book series based on Blizzard's World of Warcraft and StarCraft franchises for some time. However, word from IGN is that the publisher has decided to cancel both of these monthly comics in favor of a series of original stories in a graphic novel format. The publisher feels that such a format "will give our artists and storytellers more room to explore Blizzard's rich, varied worlds and flesh out the characters that inhabit these places."And that could be the best way to go with superhero comics too. I won't be surprised if in time, we'll be seeing just that take effect. All that will be left then is to fix the quality of the writing.
