[edit] Bias?

Were those critical comments biased..? Would it be better if they were set against more explicit praise, or are they best gone entirely? ntnon (talk) 16:38, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Hopefully it's considerably more balanced now - and hopefully not too far the other way. [No bias implied or intended.]

"Professional" reviews seem to be hard to come by online, and my Wizards and Comic Buyer's Guides, etc. are in storage, so I can't refer to any obvious print sources for reviews, either. I did, however, find mention (Supreme and Flash Gordon) of instances where Checker appears to have retroactively addressed concerns: changing the format of the FG titles, and reprinting Supreme. I'd be interested to hear from Checker representatives about the purported exchange option to people with early printings - is that an accurate mention by an Amazon reviewer? A laudable move if so. :o) ntnon (talk) 01:54, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
