American comics made anime |

The new anime season just started in Japan. One of the new shows premeiring was Witchblade, an anime based on the american comic book.
I used to be a big time fan of Witchblade. I started collecting the comic at issue one, but stopped collecting somewhere in the 30 range because artist and writer switch-offs began to ruin the series. Before that however, artist Mike Turner (arguably the best comic book artist out there) and writer Christina Z put together a very solid story.
Most otaku do not think about it, but American comic books have long been popular in Japan. Kazuki Takahashi, creator of Yugioh, is a big fan of spawn, and referanced spawn in the form of "Zombri" in one of the early chapters. Nobuhiro Watsuki, creator of Kenshin, is a long time fan of X-Men, and modeled the villan Jin'eh after Gambit.
I am hopeful that anime producers will continue to look towards American comics for future shows. While I think most of the mainstream stuff would make poor anime, a lot of smaller or independant works would be great in anime format.
If I had to vote on an american comic to be made into an anime, I think I would have to go for Crimson from Cliffhanger (or better yet, Battle Chasers if you could get JM to work on the story).
What would you want to see made into an anime?

I'm having trouble getting to the store. No matter how many times I log in it keeps directing me to the home page. I know there's two different log ins, and I've logged into both but it still wont allow me to go to the store. Is something wrong with the site?

Well hopefully this is in the right place, f not I am sorry. Anyway who else is excited about the English version of Advent Children coming out the 25th? I am as I have had my copy reserved for months . I just hope that it also has the JApanese version on it as well as I will be a bit pist if I have to buy them seperately. Also just to keep the subject going, who is your favorite FF VII character. For me it was a tie between Aeris, Cloud, and Barret. What about you guys?

I know I'm VERY late on asking this as when I first watched the series I didnt know that Berserk was orginially a manga and continued after the end of the anime or had already surpassed the point where the anime had ended! if anyone knows how i could continue the story etc etc that would be awsome drop some thoughts becasue talk about a cliffhanger & I thought Zeta gundam was one!
