===[ SCANNER'S COMMENTS ]===

Well. It's done. Witchblade Infinity 1. I sincerely hope that this thing doesn't
become series material. I think this comic is mediocre at best. They took a
comic that was known to sell, made someone else rethink the scenario, come up
with something worse than the original, draw the comic up in a style which is
far less detailed than the original (I *LOVE* detail!), slap the name of the
comic it's based on on the cover and wait for the fucker to sell.
Not a single thing about this comic is better than the original Witchblade.
The art's mediocre. The printing's a mess. The colorer decided to dye the chick
blonde during the fight scene with this rather sad replacement for Nottingham.
The only thing I couldn't find an error in was the lettering. Printing? Well,
just take a look at pages 2 and 10 and you'll get the picture.
I had the thing so I scanned it, but DAMN! No way I'm gonna buy the followup if
it's made in the same way.

Something else. As you've probably noticed already there's a file included with
this series with the extension ".md5". This file contains information about the
images that make up this series. I've use GNU md5sum to generate this file.
If you get this utility you will be able to check if all the files came through
ok or not.
Once you've downloaded a series, run "md5sum -b -c <md5 file>" obviously
replacing <md5 file> with the name of the file that has the md5 extension.
md5sum will check the files listed in the .md5 file and report to you if it's
OK or if the file was somehow damaged in which case it'll FAIL.
Given recent experiences, I highly recommend you get the tools and try this.
Chances are it will be worth your while.

Next will be The Tenth Configuration 1. I've read this thing actually before
scanning it which is a good sign. It's an introduction to the characters in this
series. After that I'm gonna do either Tales Of The Witchblade 5 which I know
will be cool, or Dawn - Return Of The Goddess 3 which I expect to be cool.
After all, it's by Joseph Michael Linsner. If anything the art will once again
be fantastic :-)

Next: The Tenth Configuration 1

We want more SCANNERS! If you like comics, own a scanner and you're willing to
put in some time to scan those comics, we want to hear from YOU! You can find us
on IRC on efnet in #comicshop.

===[ HELLO WORLD ]===

Greets go out to FYWP, Mr. Faust and the rest of the CCA, Biggy Boy, Vaz,
Cartuhh and ArAcAde.

===[ CCA PHILOSOPHY ]===

The intention of the CCA is not to rip off creators!
If you enjoy a book that we've scanned, please buy the original or support
  the creators' current material!

Why we're doing this:

To preserve comics -- paper may rot but digital is forever.
To give those people who don't read comics a taste of what they're missing.
To expose comic fans to books that they'd otherwise just pass by.
To combat the speculative collectables market that makes some books
  impossible to get or ridiculously priced.  Speculation has done nothing
  but tarnish comics and led the industry onto the path of self-destruction.
  Multiple copies of the same comic all sealed up in plastic are all just
  so much worthless paper.  Alternate covers and interiors don't do
  anything but sucker fans and dilute quality.  Tell 'em NO and spend that
  $ on a different book.
