That doesn’t seem right, I thought it was supposed to come out in Febuary…And MegaCity909 #5(something slated for next week also) is already out.

Not to look a gift horse in the mouth…I hope it really IS coming out next week.

Dang…still need to get the first two…

Ooh, Felicia is kawaii! :slight_smile: But its sad about what happened to her…hope she gets another job soon…

WTF?! Is that Jon Talbain on Page 5!? :wow: At least in human form I mean…

DS 1 is end of November. DS 2 becoz of X-Mas, we were pushed to 1st week of Jan. DS 3 is end of Jan as scheduled. DS 4 end of Feb.

Kevin Lau drew issue 3, Alvin did the back up this time instead (and 2 interlude pages in the main story). Kevin is very good at drawing sexy chicks… or say cats…

Is it really Jon Talbain? Did you see the newsarama preview pages? hee hee…

Poor poor Felicia.

The people going against cat-girls are obviously not anime fanatics - because if they were around we’d more likely see these catpeople being worshipped or in other lines of… eh… buisness… and all.

That cover is awsome in every way shape and form.

Got to get number 2… got to get number 3. Grrr.

Yay! Felicia scans. I agree with the others that she does look ā€˜kawaii’ - especially in that Dorothy get-up - but I still think there’s room for improvement. The hair is one major thing to change. I actually prefer the official puffy look instead of the more natural way it’s drawn here. After seeing the eye-wateringly beautiful art of her from CFE, this almost comes as a bit of a let-down. Oh well, it’s early days yet. At least they’ve got her personality spot-on. I love it when she asks for a double warm milk. Priceless! :clap:

PS. I see the theatre poster is taken from Felicia’s ending in CFE. Nice tip of the hat, Udon. ^_~

Talbain!!! You don’t play too much darkstalkers do you? … That was most probally none other than Lord Raptor … he calles all the ladies ā€œloveā€. I bought the 3 tape movie set a while back and it looks like they’re doing that whole Felecia/Raptor meet after the performance thing again. It’s cool though … i like it.

Neither do you, apparently. If you did, you’d realise that Lord Raptor doesn’t have tan skin like you can identify in the silhouette here. The spiky hairstyle appears closer to that of Jon Talbain. Furthermore, ā€˜love’ (or more commonly spelled ā€˜luv’) is a British pet name and can equally be applied to Jon or the Aussie Lord Raptor.

As always, looking forward to it :tup:

Feel sorry for Felicia though…

Plus the preview pages and cover on www.newsarama.com shows Talbain…

Oh, sweet.

That’s a first. :tup: Never thought a guest artist gets to do the main part of the story. And nice choice of artist i might add. :clap: With his previous work was Vampi, i made a helpful suggestion way back when u just acquired the title that he do the main story for DS because of the horror theme.It suggestions like these that u actually do listen to most of the stuff we say here. Whether its helpful advice or just plain crap. :tup:

Thanks, Udon :karate:

EW, is it just me or does this catwhore look absolutely atrocious, i say BURN THESE FREAKISH CAT ABOMONIATIONS!!! capcom better get smart and kill this slut off quickly before dc sues them for using the catwoman name.

By other peoples reaction my guess is that it is just you. Or just you here. I’m sure there are other people who agree with you somewhere. Not me of course.

I don’t think DC holds any copywrite over Cat-women either, just Catwoman the character, which none of cat-girls look like. Cat-women have been folk lore demons for years and years, waaaay before DC came along, so, eh, no chance of them being sued really.

Felicia ends up being a Nun I believe, to help/play with children, which is quite the opposite to a slut/whore - and its not like she can help what she looks like outta her clothes. Heck as most of the time we see her out of her clothes, her being nekkid is more modest and us humans. As for why she’s running around nekkid… She’s a cat. Girl. Cat-girl.

Its not like its worse then any other Capcom created character either. Chun-li with her panty flashing moves and Cammy with her skin tight clothes which leaves nothing to the imagination. Heck with Cammy half the time it looks like they just forget to draw in the nipples and add in lines where the ā€œsuitā€ ends - giver her a triangle on top of her breast and ā€œHey Hoā€ she has her clothes.


Of course if ya just going with the Darkworlds properganger we could ā€œkill the mutiesā€ as well! Mutie lovers!

That’s some pretty good art and though I’ve never played the game and know nothing about the story I still like the book. IMO not knowing the canon makes it easier tio swallow whatever they feed us so long as it’s good but with SF they’ll always be people complaining about contradictions.

That’s very true, when there’s an official plot to relate to then there will be comparisons and expectations, I personally am happy as long as they remain fairly close to the official plot. Sorry to bring it up again but remember these two things that went far off the plot?
-Street Fighter Malibu Comics
-Street Fighter The Movie

I’m also in the dark about DarkStalkers and I’ve only read #1 so far but it looks promising, surprisingly I think I may enjoy this more than Street Fighter as it seems a bit more mature, plus I like darker stories/themes.

Is it me, or does Felicia seem a bit…manly?

It’s you

I hope they dont follow the animated series plot completely. The ending was just too damn cheesy.

Has anyone noticed that J.T. looks like a hulking monster in that one piece of cover art? I brought it up in another thread but I was wondering if other fans cared because J.T. isn’t all that huge. In fact if you play the game he’s just average in size.

Other than that I LOVE FEICIA! She’s such a sweet heart. Udon better never make her into some sort of slut! Which I’m sure you guys won’t. Can’t wait to pick up next week. Cover 3A all the way!

Woooooooooooooooo!! Felicia!! She’s so cute and sweet :slight_smile: I totally love the characterization so far. I hope her and Jon have good screen time lol
ā€¦ā€œCat whore?ā€ riiiiiiiiiiight…
