@jhazzroucher: Surely every solo focuses on the title character? I don't get why starting a solo series with a new character is better. By being in a team, a character will gain some fans who will go out and buy a solo series, and the series will make more money.

2. I wouldn't recommend stating you're own assumption like it's a fact.

@jhazzroucher: 1. But he doesn't have one at the moment, so why would that be the reason that Storm doesn't have one? And why do you say he got an ongoing because he's black? Maybe he got one because someone had a good story to tell with him.

2. Do you have any evidence to show that that's why Marvel did that, or that there was a change in the number of fans for either character when it happened?

@wessaari:What rankings?

If by recognized, you mean she beats up each individual member of the family, I'd be alright with that. :)

Speaking of training, is one of the back issues you've got the second #0(Interlude)? It has some good information on how extreme Batwomans' training was.

@jhazzroucher: O.K. I thought you meant just now. Why are you comparing Black Panther to Storm? Because they were married?

@jhazzroucher said:

@V_Scarlotte_Rose: so if they were given the chance to have their own ongoing, then they should also give Storm one too./

If someone can think of something interesting to do with a Storm ongoing, then yes, they should give it a go. It seems that the only reason to not try an ongoing with a well known character would be that no-one has any ideas for what to write for them.

And what does this mean?

is it because they don't want another lady to be in competition with Ms Marvel? (well i believe they have Rogue not having her powers anymore so people would support Ms marvel)

I can't work out what you're trying to say here.

@wessaari: I actually like that she's in her corner. It's been a pretty interesting corner to be in. :)

When I read that scene, it seemed a little odd that Batgirl took such a pounding, but I'm hearing she's kinda weak, and I know that Batwoman's strong, so I understand it now.

@wessaari: Batwoman's not one of the family, but you could be right about the strength, she is pretty tough after all.

Most books with female leads lean heavily on the novelty factor

Could you elaborate?

I just mean that it can be hard to find a mainstream superhero comic with a female lead in which the fact that she (or they) are female doesn't seem like half of the premise, which seems completely unnecessary to me. There are some, to be sure, but the X-men have been doing it through some of their best and most popular periods for years.

Could you give some examples?

I'm an American. Truth be told I struggle with Sir Alex Ferguson's post game interviews. And David Moyes (sp?) as well come to think of it.

What really does bug me is trying to read a writer attempting to convey a character with a Scottish accent. The recent Crossed Badlands Annual was so very distracting! I recall that Garth Ennis did this as well sometimes in Hellblazer. I guess the problem for me is that I haven't heard the Scottish accent enough for my mind to have any tools for projecting onto the words I am reading.

But I did like it when Karen Gillan opened up her brogue full throttle.

Sorry, I can't work out if you mean you struggle reading people with Scottish accents in comics, or that the ones you've mentioned, have Scottish accents written badly in them.

I loved some Billy Connolly stand up when I was growing up. Turns out that was made for me to understand. When I listen to his other albums for the Scots, I have no idea what he is talking about.

Made for you to understand? Did he do some shows where he toned down the accent and slang or something?

Another woman on the team. One with powers this time.

Carol Danvers preferably.

Greg Capullo just annouced via Twitter that he has just resigned with DC to stay on Batman. What do you think of this Viners I for one am very pleased over this news, Greg is one of my top favorite artist, Now lets hope the dynamic duo of Snyder and Capullo reign for the next decade

I thought for a moment there that he'd resigned, rather than re-signed. :P
