From Newsrama:

Click the text above to go to article. I thought that Beyond had talked to you about this but it is better to simply link to news articles instead of copying and pasting the article and cluttering up the message board. Readers also get to see any updates when they click a link. Please try to do this instead. Also, stop excessively making thread titles in caps. It's cleaner and shorter without.

Thanks,
Darknight

I didn't get that sense at all. If anything, this has been planned since before Civil War was slapped together as a response to Infinite Crisis. In fact, the entire theme of Civil War seems lifted directly from IC. It involves the pillars of the Marvel Universe breaking apart, leading to some of the darkest days of that respective comic book universe. Yep, that's what IC was, too. I really don't see anything in the WWIII release that seems derivative of CW.
My main conern here is that it's all in one week, apparently. I hope it doesn't seem rushed or compressed, as that's an awful lot to cram into a single week. Still, look who's doing it. It's been great so far, so that's enough for me to pick these up.

I can't wait for these, especially because I wanna see what's going on with Supergirl and Aquaman (Supergirl because she gets thrown all over the place and no one's explained how, and Aquaman because he's dissapeared all together)

Aquaman has been transformed into the Dweller, and been palling around with the new Aquaman over in Sword of Atlantis. He doesn't remember who he is, having obviously undergone some sort of awful transformation. They tipped us off in the first OYL issue, when he is shown to have the water hand on his left arm. So he's been around, but the WWIII issues should tell us exactly how he became what he now is.
