	Comic Book Profiles: Alias The Spider - Quality Comics' archer
		To my knowledge, only one adventure of the Spider has ever been reprinted by DC Comics, and that one was the story from Crack Comics #25, which saw print in Detective Comics #441.
		As a Quality Comics character, he was one of the heroes who went with Uncle Sam to protect Earth-X during World War II, becoming part of the Freedom Fighters.
		The very use of the character is a nice homage, of sorts, to the characters of the Golden Age, given the general obscurity of The Spider in even Quality Comics' stable of characters, and the change of allegiances by The Spider makes for a good way to bring him into the modern era of comics.

	Comic Book Delays - Manga / Comics
		Brevoort posted “With the rising costs of most comics, readers as a whole demand a higher level of quality from the books they buy, and they're more likely to be willing to wait for them (or just wait for the inevitable collection.)”.
		This was in response to a post that I had made regarding the problem of continuity in comics due to delays.
		Now it must be pointed out that Marvel is not the only comic book company which has delays in their shipping schedule.

	Quality
		However by the 1950s things were on a downturn, and after attempting to branch out into non-superhero comics (humour, horror, and war titles), they shut up shop in December 1956, selling their characters and other assets to National Periodical Publications (later to become D.C. Comics).
		Gradually some of the Quality characters were reintroduced, though many were placed on an alternate Earth rather than "Earth-1", the home of the main D.C. characters.
		Without a doubt, the most prominent of the Quality characters still active at D.C. has to be Plastic Man.

	The Comics Reporter
		This is a quality, slick-looking comics anthology, although I imagine that may people will engage with it as a kind of ambassador to the world of children, something many feel the industry needs right now.
		What's odd about that is that most of the work in here has been done years ago, meaning that Nickelodeon has done less talking about how to try and seize the kids market and more just publishing comics for their readers, who happen to be kids.
		The level of craft on display is generally high, one guesses due to the ability to work on high-quality paper and a decent paycheck, and with a talented cartoonist like Terry LaBan, say, who rarely gets to cut loose, this can be a kind of joy in itself.
