DC, Capcom partner for Resident Evil, Devil May Cry comics

The agreement is DC's second in as many weeks following last week's deal with EA for a six-part comic book series based on Mirror's Edge, and like that series, both Resident Evil and Devil May Cry adaptations will be released under DC's Wildstorm umbrella. However, with so little to go on, and a creative team and launch month left unspecified until a later date, we doubt we'll be adding either title to our monthly pull lists just yet.

Does anyone actually reads comics anymore? Why don't they just make anime instead.

I read comics. Regularly, too. Shocking, I know.
Also note there is already a Devil May Cry manga.

There was a DMC comic too.
Both were pretty decent.

To make it simple Comics>Anime.
Comics are always very well written while Anime is just retarded when it comes to story structure.

@ESC
ummmmm, no not always. Comics can be pretty shitty at times.

or just make a manga :D and no there not the same!
Vegeta (aka Ska Oreo) @ Jul 30th 2008 10:23AM
Yes...yes they are the same.
Vegeta (aka Ska Oreo) @ Jul 30th 2008 10:29AM
Manga=Comics
Anime=Cartoons

You're telling me you can't see a difference between American comics and Japanese manga?
Sorry, but you can't honestly believe yourself.
Xoviet chiK @ Jul 30th 2008 1:15PM
They both have their ups, they both have their downs, buut ultimately they are one and the same. Aside from obvious cultural influences lending to differences in plot progression, artistic design, and layout, you can't honestly believe they aren't both a product of one another?
Osamu Tezuka's biggest influence was Disney after all.
(That goes for both Anime / Cartoons and Manga / Comic Books)
Vegeta (aka Ska Oreo) @ Jul 30th 2008 1:17PM
The only difference between them are cultural differences. And that's pretty much it.
There's only two reasons why we call japanese comics manga.
1. to differentiate it from western comics(because stating japanese comics over and over again is way too long)
2. It's a hip marketing term used by corporations in order to get 12 year olds to buy their stuff.
But at the end of the day, they're pretty much the same.

Maybe we can get DC VS Capcom as well as a new Marvel VS Capcom? Prob not, but I'd rather have a Transformers fighting game made by Capcom.

Indeed, why can't DC and Capcom partner for something worthwhile like DC vs Capcom? oorrrr..
DC vs Marvel vs Capcom!!!!
Vegeta (aka Ska Oreo) @ Jul 30th 2008 10:22AM
Oh and apparently a comic isn't worthwhile?
Ian Murray @ Jul 30th 2008 9:23AM
Well, they'll be able to save a bit of money...seeing as how the two main characters look exactly alike.
