The style of it is similar to what we have seen in the past, only with a link to a site that is selling something.

So, they wait until it gets approved, and come back later, edit the post and add a link like I have described above. Sorry that you got caught up in this.

Like, why doesn't DC release a "reprint" of Detective 27 for example that is a basically a panel-by-panel remake of the original, but using artists and art styles from today? I'd be much more interested in that than a straight up reprint facsimile. Would anyone else be intrigued, or is that a step too far? I mean.... they are a thing, unfortunately. All they do is re-tell the same origin stories every few years, just not in the panel by panel remake format you described. DC's 1980s Secret Origins had a few stories- not all- that did the remake of the original story, presumably that was a Roy Thomas thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godzilla43 Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 (edited) Yeah creating a comic with the same panels with modern artist would be much cooler than those horrible facsimiles. Edited July 19, 2023 by godzilla43 typos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADAMANTIUM Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 (edited) I can just hear the Ebay Buyers now making claims of seller sending the "wrong book" This sounds like a market place nightmare, if it was exactly the same or am I missing something? @Jesse-Lee Edited July 19, 2023 by ADAMANTIUM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vintage collector won't be interested for the most part. The new comic collector won't be interested for the most part. Its a pretty narrow intersection, IMO, of people wanting to read old stories with new art. LowGradeBronze and Zonker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theCapraAegagrus Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 I simply wish that AC1000 got an AC1 cover remake by Alex Ross the same way he did one of DC27 for DC1000. Cat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did do an AC1 cover homage for AC900. Him doing another one for AC1000 would have been better than the 999 variant covers we got of that issue. theCapraAegagrus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His 900 cover is way better (reinterpreted AC1) and I think that's the idea of this thread concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Readcomix Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 I’d rather see some modern stories retold in about one-third the number of pages (panels are OK, they don’t all have to be splash pages), with some more action and a little bit of realistic dialogue. Can we try those remakes??? Gonzimodo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1050 is closer to what I'm talking about; Modernized remakes. It took me too long to recognize how 900 homages #1.

Yorick Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 Ross would be great on an AC1 "remake" (at least for the Superman story). He also did a single panel which I believe may have been used for a plate; But now that I look at it again, it might need a little more polish.
