        <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[ My DA main page views has recently surpassed the 200,000 mark. I'd really like to thank each and everyone of you for taking the time to view my work here. I appreciate it very much.<br /><br />Meanwhile, for those of you interested in picking up my comic work, Avengers The Initiative #32 will be out towards the end of the month. It's a Siege tie-in and Christos Gage wrote a very cool story on the Taskmaster's involvement on the event.<br /><br />Also Nova #34 will be out the first week of February. Awesome stuff written by none other than Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning. Be sure to ask your retailers to get these books.<br /><br />Thanks again!<br /><br />Take care. ]]></media:text>
