For those of you who read Detective Comics #854 a little while back, you’ll remember that in the Question second feature Renee Montoya finds some of her cases via a specialized e-mail address.
Guess what? It’s real.
Artist Cully Hamner has a link to ask-the-question.net, which allows readers to submit a question to the Faceless Avenger. What will the questions be used for? Not sure, but don’t think I haven’t asked!
UPDATE: 12:21am EST: The web site now says “under construction.” Is this simply a server error, or something else? Is this a case of too many questions, or are answers forthcoming?

More cheap but effective web and viral marketing from Mr. Rucka and co.
I mentioned to Dan Didio via Facebook that he should set up a similar site and twitter account for The Web, since he’s supposed to be the first hero with direct access via the web. Hoping he does.

As much as I’d like to have Didio on board for Twitter too, I doubt he would because he appears to be so busy lately. It seems the 20Q/1A thing is always delayed, for instance.

Thanks for the shout-out! I’d like to point out I had that link over on my blog, WHO ARTED?! (http://cully-hamner.blogspot.com)

“What will the questions be used for?”
I have my fingers crossed for a “Dear Abby” style advice column.

OK, I’m joking. I love this kind of viral marketing and my curiosity is piqued.
‘TEC is brilliant again and is now a must-read title. Congrats on #854 selling out, Cully, Greg, JH and everyone involved.
