More than just video games (but still mostly video games)

IGN.com has officially launched its IGN Comics section, which promises a mix of mainstream and independent comics coverage -- despite the prominently displayed Marvel and DC superheroes on the front page. Editor in chief Hilary Goldstein already has posted a Q&A with cartoonist Peter Bagge, as well as a breakdown of the differences and similarities between the Hellblazer comic series and the Constantine film.

In its Games section, IGN has a brief interview with Marvel general counsel John Turtizin about the dismissal of many of the company's claims in its lawsuit against NCsoft and Cryptic Studios, publisher and developer of City of Heroes.
