It's like owning Youngblood comics. Or Vanilla Ice Cd's.
Naw, both of those were way cooler than this garbage.

I agree. It looks very Jae Leeish.

One thing I'm noticing is that all the pics remind me of something else. Looks like rip-offs to me. For instance:

Deathmate..... Reminds me of DC's Death
Rai and FF....... Reminds me of ....is it resevoir dogs or the usual suspects.... can't remember.
the Visitor looked like the Sentry.
Sting reminded me of the Japanese dude from Heroes.

Although I think the art is ok, I doubt much thought went into this at all.

Some people spend their whole lives believing in fairy tales, usually because they don't want to give up the fabulous prizes.

You can just tell that Deathmate is about a girl who kills after she mates...

Say what you will about VH 2, but at least their preview book didn't suck like this one.
