For those of you on Twitter I've decided to put a twitter account for the site out there.
It's more aimed at getting new members in and getting the word spread out, but it'll be useful for lurkers and as-up-to-the-minute-as-my-timezone-allows-news as well as publicising any interviews or articles that you guys post.

It's threadbare at the moment, but there's a lot more to come leading up to #0.1

Good idea! I'm not much of a twit (twitterer?) myself, but I like the idea.

I can see that, but to me it's just like an #0, -1 or 1/2. And in that case it makes more sense having a 0.1 than a 5.1, say.

Joe knows, right, that a lot of the comics will be 5.1, say? (I think the Uncanny X-Men will be something like 548.1?)

It was me that wrote that originally, and yeah, I understand there'll be 548.1's.
I just meant that a 0.1 is less... clang-y, for complete lack of a better term, in the same way as a #0, -1 or 1/2.

Especially when you consider that Uncanny X-Force #5.1 takes place between #4 & 5, Wolverine 5.1 takes place before #1 and that the number's they're assigned to are merely slaves to their publishing schedule...

Just so you know.
Numbering is getting silly these days.

I'll send you over the login details and password if you want, as it's essentially representing your site and name.

sure. I don't really think of it as my site. It's a community site that I happened to have started:)

Oh no you don't! This whole thing is your baby, Ben! (and, if we get sued, entirely your fault!)
