Not Exactly Comics: Wired Reports on Hollywood Piracy Suits This article really isn't about comics at all, but my hunch is that this kind of aggressive lawsuit policy is going to be one of the options comic book companies will have if and when they decide to go after similar comics downloads. I'd also be surprised if the recent shift that has mainstream publishers selling books based on revelatory plot points -- who's dead, who killed them, who left the toilet seat up -- as opposed to a reading experience didn't cause an upwards spike in illegal downloads.
