Description
Termed a Digital Comic Book (DCB) this DVD product is a cross platform for comic books, videogame consoles, and DVD players. A DCB combines the visual art and storytelling ability of published comic books with professional voice-overs, original music, vivid stunning effects and high-end sound design to create a unique DVD product on par with a major motion picture release.

Each DCB contains a five to eight issue comic story-arc and at half the cost of the printed version, the value speaks for itself. Plenty of extra material is packed in as well: trailers, character biographies, original sketches, a documentary about how comics are made, and bonus chapters (including classic first appearances of the main characters). This all adds up to over 100 minutes of viewable material per DCB. Viewable on DVD, Playstation2, Xbox, MacOS 9.2, and PC.

Two of the best-known comic book publishers in the world, Marvel and CrossGen, have provided their most popular properties to these DCB. Character titles include: the Incredible Hulk, Ultimate X-Men, Daredevil, Wolverine, Negation, Sojourn, and Way of the Rat.

Digital Comic Books have received numerous accolades from the press and outstanding reviews praising this entertaining product.

PERFECT for People have been away from Comics.......2004-07-08

I stopped reading comics in the mid 90's. The influx of Superhero Movies (Spiderman, X-Men, Blade & Hulk) totally got me back into the Marvel world. I purchased all the DVDS that Sock Puppet studio produced and I loved them. For basically the same price as a Graphic Novel you get a DVD with over 2 hours of material. I think the format might not be for everbody but for somebody who has been away from Comics this should pull you back quickly. I have been waiting for them to release other titles soon.

As true to the comic books as you can get!.......2004-04-09

Using the actual art and story from the X-Men comics (in this case the Ultimate X-Men), and adding voices to the characters, injecting special effects and music, you get a full blown X-Men adventure that cannot be any closer to the printed comic books. Volume One is a great start and the rest of the digital comic book volumes in the line are great as well. What every X-Men collector needs. Amazon carrys all the Intec digital comic books so you don't have to go searching for them. Can't wait for more.
