I put it up a few weeks ago. We used to have the latest info on the upcoming UY books. But then I got a little lazy and let things go a bit (actually I got too busy but the end result was the same). But no more. Now we'll have info at least 5-6 issues out... plus exclusive info on future story arcs! Tormenting UY readers is what the UYD is all about!

We have an expression for that in france : Qui (who) aime (loves) bien (well) châtie (punishes / is punished) bien, it is tre translation of the latin expression : Qui bene amat, bene castigat. I believe in english that the expressions is Square the rod and spoil the child.

It is good torments, because we think of future stories long before we can read it, and pleasure is greatest when at last we discover new stories...

This is one more reason why I visit this site

Hello Todd and all UY fans who make this UY dojo,

<quote>Added the synopses for UY 96-98:

This is just one more reason I love visiting this site. The Diana's interview is another. When Mr. Sakai personally reads and responds to a lot of fans. And when all of you add your own thoughts to this board.

To me this is an amazing place for a fan to interact with other fans. Add to that I rarely see post that are rude (unlike other boards) towards each other. Quite an accomplishment for a 10 year project.

Much thanks! Look forward to more "inside" treats.

Peace,

maka

Diana had something pretty nifty planned, and is still trying to get it approved. I'll let you know if it does happen, otherwise it will be a regular issue.

I sure hope it gets approved, whatever it is. Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Usagi the only Dark Horse title aside from DHP to ever hit 100? That's got to be worth celebrating in style.

Maka,

Thanks for the kind words. The UYD prides itself in what it sets out to accomplish. As the official website, and not merely a fansite, standards have to be held high, to protect the readers and of course, Stan. Fortunately, Usagi fans tend to be mature, professional people, honorable and polite towards each other. We're fortunate that we've never really had any bad situations arise among fans and vistors of this site. We've had a few spammers and even outside invaders attempting to disrupt the harmony of this community (hence why the board is members-only), but for the most part, we've been flame-free.

The point to all of this is to have fun and bring the fans together, give them the opportunity to interact with the Nicest Guy in Comics, and to get exclusive info about their favorite comic! We're glad you're pleased with the site.

Todd

I think Blade of the Immortal is past 100.

Just to be difficult, Blade of the Immortal does not count because it is a "reprint" series being puplished in Japan first...

Any other Dark Horse series having hit the big 100?
