venture.
In conjunction with the relaunch, the company has also signed an
agreement with America Online, the world’s leader in interactive services, which
establishes an AOL Keyword for CrossGen. America Online Keyword: CrossGen will
provide hundreds of pages of comics content for free use by AOL’s
members.
Comics on the Web Version 3.0 features an easier-to-use front
end, while also providing translated front ends in other languages, such as
Spanish, French, German, Italian and Japanese. The service features comics
translated in all those languages, as well. A key shift from one-bit to two-bit
language support enabled CrossGen to incorporate character-sets from Asian
languages into its online service. Other features include:
– Alternate
audio track support including voice-overs and creator commentary
– Asian
language support e.g., Japanese/Korean
– Automatic balloon movement
synced with audio track
– Shortened movement from stand date to online
release, reduced from six to three months
CrossGen has also established a
partnership with ecomix, the most popular online comics portal in South
Korea:

<div>Okay. I am not a big fan of the Catwoman character in the comics. She
always seemed one-dimensional to me. However, I at least knew that it was
something that I could share with the kids and have no fear of what they were
looking at. This new costume is a nightmare & not even my nine-year-old
daughter likes it.<br></div>
