Does anyone else like SCION as much as I do? I have really been drawn into this series. It is the first book that I have ever purchased every single ish! I hear the rest of the Crossgen Universe is cool, but I have limited College cash$$ "eat today or buy Scion?" once a month every month!

Yeah i like it too, but i don't buy it regularly I buy an ish here or there and read the rest online I got that Crossgen comics on the web dealie for 8 bucks it's a good deal I really like soujurn! I'm a pretty big Crossgen fan, but I'm also a Really big Marvel fan which is ironic cause they seem to have trouble getting along

Cheung's art is gorgeous, but I lost interest in the story... it got dropped during my recent budgetary cuts and I can't say I miss it much... I got as far as the issue after Bron kills Ethan, somewhere in the 'teens.

Ethan's dead?? How can that be? Yeah, gotta agree with Inkthinker, I'm impressed with Cheung's art as well! I followed the story a bit and I even bought #1 but it got dropped from my list of buys after issue 5... but not because i don't like it or anything... i just don't have the funds for it...

Not to spoil anything for you , but Ethan is the "Scion" in the story so if he dies the story would be over...so I have the next few ishes after that little incident and lets just say that the story is still going. As far as money goes X-men bankrupted me a few years ago trying to keep up with all the crossover X stufff. Just wasn't worth it to me. Seemed like the same old thing with different costumes. I think the art got better, but the stories got sucky. Scion was just something refreshing for me. but I sure would like to know what's been going on over at Westchester lately.

I like the book, but more because of Jimmy's art than the story. When he's not drawing it, I'm not buying it.
