	ICON: A Hero's Welcome
		ICON: A HERO'S WELCOME reprints the award-winning first eight issues of ICON by Dwayne McDuffie and M. Bright, with a new cover by M. Bright and an introduction by Reginald Hudlin, director of "House Party," Boomerang" and "The Great White Hype." Full color on Mando paper.
		Some of you might sneer at attaching such importance to creating comic books (it shows a certain success for Milestone that you are reading this introduction, anyway), but for people who have suffered with "a dream deferred" for too long, having our collective fantasies delineated and distributed across the country is empowerment indeed.
		In fact, ICON is such a revolutionary creation that Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas called the Milestone offices to tell them how much he enjoyed their work.

	Icon (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Icon (also known as Augustus Freeman, Augustus Freeman Jr, Augustus Freeman III, and Augustus Freeman IV) is a Milestone Comics superhero.
		Because of the superficial similarity of his powers and origin story, Icon was sometimes referred to as the "fl Superman", a designation rejected by his creators.
		His time as Icon II was short-lived when he gave his life in order to stop a villain from Icon's homeworld.

		Epic Comics launched with the first issue of Dreadstar in late 1982 and was shipped only to direct market comic shops, which were a growing force in the marketplace at that time, and were starting to nibble away at the dominance of newsstands as the major outlet of comic books.
		Ten or so years later, with much hullabaloo, Marvel brought Epic back in 2003, with the promise that it would again publish creator-owned comics, with the promise that anyone, as long as their work met the Epic standards, could be published.
		Icon, on the other hand, is a new imprint created separate from the traditional Marvel Imprints specifically mandated to work with top properties and creators outside of Marvel's core properties and imprints.

	PULP CULTURE for APRIL 15, 2004: Will Marvel's new Icon tarnish Image?
		Fans hoped MAX would be Marvel's answer to Vertigo, the DC Comics imprint that was home to Neil Gaiman's "Sandman." But today MAX limps along with only two monthly titles, "Punisher" and "Supreme Power," under its banner.
		Icon, however, has two things going for it that MAX and Epic did not.
		Image Comics was born when several artists decided to leave Marvel and start their own company.

		The publisher of Super Hero Happy Hour, a comical comic series about superheroes hanging out at a bar during their off hours, is changing its name to just Hero Happy Hour.
		The "source code" provision makes no sense in the comics context (which is why I prefer to call her "openly/freely licenced" rather than "open source"), but the "give it back" aspect could apply.
		Although I'm a strong proponent of the right of comics creators to retain ownership control of their creations, I think the decision to give up that control (but not ownership) is an admirable one.

		When Marvel suddenly announced their own creator-owned line last week and grabbed comic's most in-demand writer from Image to bring his book over to them, that sound you heard was the cannonball shooting right across Image's bow.
		ICON seems like the perfect one stop publishing solution to a publisher previous unable to accommodate a creator's every need.

		The new ICON imprint has been created with a mandate to pursue both these creator and licensed projects, while maintaining the highest level of talent and the brands that readers have come to expect from Marvel.

	MILE HIGH COMICS presents THE BEAT at COMICON.com
		SHE DRAWS COMICS celebrates the diversity of the artists and art being that has been and is currently being created by women in the comics medium.
		Right now the comics medium is being treated to a great deal of academic scrutiny and praise; the Masters show was definitely part of this, and comics artists are finally being given their due as people who made very significant contributions to our culture -- and not just pop culture.
		In my early days as a comics rabble rouser one of my catch phrases was “a woman on every panel not a panel for every woman.” Even as recently as 20 years ago, the women in comics were usually herded onto one panel to discuss their problems, goals and dreams.

		Major themes of the precode horror comics are decapitation, or dismemberment, or disfigurement of some kind, such as destruction of the face by acid, or the poking out of eyes.” And this from a witness for the defense!
		For comics, the 1950-54 period is analogous to Hollywood movies in 1930-34.
		The early 30s for films, and the early 50s for comics, were seen as times of bold, often lurid entertainment, and are viewed in retrospect as pop-cultural high points.

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Katy Keene
		But at MLJ/Archie Comics, they'd already found the style that would sustain the company for the second half of the 20th century and into the 21st — light humor, designed to appeal to teens.
		At first, the comic was filled with reprints of Woggon's 1950s artwork; but later, other artists, including Dan DeCarlo (creator of Josie and co-creator of Sabrina) and John Lucas (who for years had claimed to be Katy's #1 fan), began crafting new stories — with new fashions sent in by a new generation of readers.
		Today, Katy Keene is not one of the Archie Comics superstars — but she still occupies a corner of the company's Web site, as do The Black Hood, The Jaguar and other characters the company doesn't emphasize, but still wants to keep at least in the corner of the public eye.

		With Icon, Marvel can offer a new incentive for its top creators: a means to publish their own preexisting properties without losing their rights, and a means to capitalize on the large distribution reach that Marvel enjoys in the market.
