Usagi in Wizard's top 200 characters

Post by knightmagetim »

Usagi made it into Wizard's top 200 characters in their 200th issue spectacular!

That's very exciting, I think.

I agree. I remember reading the issue and smiling when I saw his name. I do wish Wizard woudl give more attention to Usagi and other great books. They have such a wide audience reading their magazine and yet they only focus on whatever is hot at the moment. I'd love to see an in depth review of the Usagi series or an interview with Stan. Think of how many more readers would discover this wonderful book if Wizard just branched out more.

I remember Usagi was spotlighted as their Book of the Month about eight years ago. I think it's a shame that Wizard Edge isn't produced more often than it is. I wouldn't mind a quarterly Wizard Edge magazine that contained info for the off-the-radar creators and titles.

I remember that too.

I agree, Wizard Edge should come out more.

That's how I feel about Wolverine being before Spider-man and Batman.

Marv comes before Hal Jordan?

Rorschach ahead of Doc Doom?

Daredevil comes after Jesse Custer?

...this list is whacked!

The list is irrelevant

Post by RoninMerc »

I'm glad for the mention of Usagi but the list is obviously completely subjective. It's pointless to argue over the order of the list. The characters are subjects used in a form of art. Ranking art is a pretty ridiculous notion.
