If I ran the (comics) world, I'd . . .
By Chris Karnes

  • make sure JLA and JSA didn't come out the same week. I'd have JLA come out one week, and JSA come out two weeks later.

  • have no MORE than TWO Spider-Man related comics come out in ONE week. I'd prefer only one Spidey book in a week.

  • have DC reprint golden-age stories in an afforable, monthly format.

  • hire live-action models to pose for covers for Birds of Prey and Catwoman ... oh hell, for ALL DC titles for one month.

  • have DC and Marvel (in their case, another) do a Fumetti-book.

  • hire more female talent in the industry.

  • decree that the next Legion retcon to be the last.

  • return Catwoman to her purple costume.

  • like to see a cable channel devoted solely to comics and related subjects. (They're doing it with Anime.)

  • have Harvey relaunch their core titles (Casper, Richie Rich).

  • cut the length of ANY future Batman multi-titles arc story to no more than 8 chapters (issues) PERIOD; 6 preferably.

  • stop renumbering titles with new "#1" 's (see Marvel's "Punisher.")

  • encourage MORE interaction between fan and creators/talent in some, or any, type of forum.

  • have more contests for fans.

  • make requirements for comics shop employees on courtesy and hygiene.
