We now have 40 participants who have signed up. Wow!

Our deadline is just within two weeks. Recognizing that the time for this is short.

We will be accepting 100 words or less for reviews. The change should be easier for all members to make the goal.

(For those who have completed the longer reviews. Thank you for your efforts)

Wooohooo!

Thanks for the kind words, guys. The boys are asleep, and I'm sure to follow...after I write 3-4 more reviews.

I'm up to date on Unity. What a great title that's been. I see a lot of potential with Livewire.

If you're not a *SQUEE*, you're okay with me.

If you have a review in one, it's easy to copy it into the other sites.

Also, if you have a question over what you're missing, let me know and I can tell you.

There is still time for EVERYONE to make the goal and get access to two NYC exclusives and........ :hm: :hm: :hm: :hm: ?????, while helping out VEI :thumb:

At the start of this round, there were exactly 1,200 reviews on the three sites. As of this writing, thanks to your efforts, the total reviews on the three sites now sits at 2,015 :o :high-five:

Will give another update a week from now as we close in on the end of this promo so post away :D

100 words is easy ...

Run down the book's basic details, mention whether the writer and artist did a god/bad job and talk for a sentence about whether or not you would recommend this book.

105-word example: The trade paperback Name Here covers issues xx-xx of the Valiant comic, Name Goes Here. This book covers the story arc where (Plot goes here and here and here and here … no spoilers). The Action and the Intrigue and the Story and maybe a little bit of romance.
Writer Name Here goes above and beyond telling the story of this and this. And the art of Name Here perfectly captures the mood with vibrant art and cleverly drawn panels.
If you’re a fan of anything I just mentioned, be sure to pick this one up. This was an easy choice to give X stars.


See? Easy. Now get to work!
