"IDW issued another press release on this comic, identical to the first, except for the following: "I'm really enjoying creating my very own comic. The Music Box is like a very fun nightmare," said Hewitt. "It's a frightening premise to have so much malevolent energy in an inanimate object, especially something that's typically as benign as a music box. I'm so proud of The Music Box and can't wait for people to read it." The Music Box presents a new story in each issue, as different people come into contact with the music box and have unique experiences. Be it time travel, alternative realities or just plain evil, Jennifer Love Hewitt's The Music Box masterfully weaves new and compelling stories with every issue. "Who knew that behind that sweet, million dollar smile of hers was a mind capable of coming up with suck dark and dangerous stories?" said Lobdell. "Fans of Love will be dancing to a new tune . . . one that's played by this mysterious music box from who only knows where."" - ComicList

@Ann - it may be exciting for you who have invested no time in FF to see it consumed but for those of us who've actually participated and cultivated friendships and relationships here, it is quite disappointing. - Lindsay is in 20-ten

Media Release -- Volume Three of award-winning author Warren Ellis’ ongoing web comic, FREAKANGELS, is here! This installment collects the entire third arc of the post-apocalyptic saga into 144 gorgeous, full-color pages. Twenty-three years ago, twelve strange children were born in England at exactly the same moment. Six years later, the world ended. Today, eleven strange 23-year-olds are living in and defending Whitechapel, maybe the last real settlement in flooded London. They’ve made a new friend, and together they successfully defended their home from raiders–but the post-apocalyptic drowned London that the eleven Freakangels survive in is never a safe place, and never surrounded by friends. In FREAKANGELS: VOLUME THREE, the FreakAngels begin to address how to build their community while a serial killer stalks in their midst. Everything almost comes crashing down around them as one of their own breaks their most valued rule. Ellis’ ongoing story of a flooded London is beautifully... - ComicList

Media Release -- Back in the spring of 2007, the world of Archie Comics was rocked by the publication of BETTY & VERONICA DOUBLE DIGEST #151, featuring the first installment of "Bad Boy Trouble," an epic tale that ran through issue #154 and found Riverdale's favorite teens rendered in a realistic style! The "New Look" inspired months and months of debate and media coverage… and was so intriguing to fans that it led to further "New Look" sagas, including Jughead dealing with a bunch of "Matchmakers" in JUGHEAD'S DOUBLE DIGEST #139-142, and Moose and Midge's tried-and-true romance put to the test in "Breakup Blues," chronicled in PALS 'N' GALS DOUBLE DIGEST #125-128. The "New Look" then returned to its roots, with the "My Father's Betrayal" story in the pages of BETTY & VERONICA DOUBLE DIGEST. Pitting Veronica against her father in a town-wide debate of environmental proportions, it was one of the most explosive "New Look" stories ever!
