Yes folks, save your change, cause I KNOW you will be running like a crazy person to buy the new Princess Di comic books! [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Sheesh, the things people think of to try to cash in on famous personas, even apparently when they are dead! http://www.newsarama.com/Diana_Return.htm |

LOL, I saw this on the news last night. It seems the comic book industry is hurting pretty bad if some of them need to resurect dead celebrities in order to boost sales.
On a related note: The History channel had a great show on the history of comic books last night. Interesting stuff! From what I got from that show, bringing Di back from the dead is out of alignment with the philosophy of most comicbook forebearers. All that said, Di did have a vocal stand on many issues. She used her wealth and celebrity to fight what she percieved as injustice, just as many comicbook heroes do. Interesting parralel. I'm on the fence with this topic I suppose.

It would be nice if she featured in a couple of Freak Brothers comics though. I'd defenitely buy those.

Comic writers must be going insane! Your not supposed to do a comic about actual people unless they could fly or could do a really cool trick like breath fire out of their nose.

That really takes the piss. I liked Princess Diana a lot. She was the only normal one in the royal family.

i think its quite sad that they're still writing stuf bout her after all these years, it was prolly bad enough when she was alive but seriously can't people just leave the dead alone. Imagine how her son's must feel.
