It's more offensive that its been done really badly...not even a decent attempt at lifting the design.

^ This is because we have trained eyes.
We know S7 did some research to do it in good taste. On the street, people won't see the big difference.

True....and depressing.

I like the "we're still going to make the designs despite being called out as rip off artists" attitude. It's like even if they TOTALLY never saw Brian's designs and this really did come out of no where with them but then found out someone else was doing it first they'd say (or anyone with any self respect) "Oh damn! I didn't realize, I don't wanna be a sham, we'll cut them and say sorry."

I hope he doesn't rip Coolverine, a new issue is hitting soon and I don't need that crap. Here's a sneak at the new and original storyline!

it looks like he doesn't know how to play with toys. all dainty-like and whatnot, he is. you gotta make missile and lazer sounds. i know its a photo, but we should be able to see it on the face. this guy's face looks like his girlfriend's mom walked in while he was on the toilet. embarrassed, yet intrigued.

Or maybe they just posted about it today and are sponsoring them. I posted a comment, we'll see if it gets approved.
