Man, I'm just doing everything this month! One of the things that I was
asked to do this month was review www.coolbeansworld.com (and, btw,
I spend too much time on my other hobby, I keep typing coolbeads...). I
said okie dokie, but in typical CT writer fashion, put it off until the last
minute... Remember folks! Laziness is the glue that binds humanity
together.
Anyway, by the time I got around to going over to the site, the account
they had so kindly set aside for our use was expired, and I was
bombarded with requests to renew my subscription. Well, I am dedicated
to my job and the cost for the minimum subscription (4 weeks) was about
the same cost as your average comic book, but laziness kicked in. I
wasn't about to subscribe just to review. So I poked around in the free
preview sections.
Cool Beans World is a comics cavern, or so they say. They have comics
by famous people up on the web... apparently new stuff and remade old
stuff? I already forgot what I read in the press release, my mind has been
cluttered this week. Anyway, it turned out to not be my cup of tea. The
five series' currently available on-line all looked dark and edgy, pretty
much. Good art, but grim looking stuff.
The page is pretty graphics-intensive but loaded surprisingly quickly on
my dial-up connection (momentary side rant.... I want cable!
WAAAAA!).
Had I gotten off my duff earlier in the month, I may have perused more
and given you guys some good info, but instead I charge you to do as I
say, not as I do. Throw off the chains of laziness and do it yourself:P
