The Hardy Boys Undercover Brothers: The New Case Files

MacGyver · November 22, 2010, 06:31:12 PM

Just thought I'd let you all know that Nancy Drew Girl Detective: The New Case Files #2 A Vampire's Kiss (wow, that's a long title

)
will be released on December 21, 2010. I mention this in this particular thread because you can read a preview of the comic on Amazon.com's website (http://www.amazon.com/Nancy-Drew-New-Case-Files/dp/1597072338/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1290471475&sr=8-3#_)
and this includes the usual note from the editor at the end. And there are quite a few spoilers for both Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys in their upcoming titles!

And there's also a preview of The Smurfs #3 The Smurf King- which Papercutz has apparently been reprinting now. (In preparation for the August 3, 2011 CGI movie, no doubt.) The cool thing is that these are reprints of Peyo's original classics! So that makes it a pretty worthwhile collectible for Smurfs fans certainly. How very smurfy!

Dah! Amazon's previews don't work on Opera!

the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew are finnaly crossing over in a GN! Awsome!

Now I'll have to use another browser to see this!

Personally, I don't think you're missing much. I would have to see this in person to make a final judgment. I'm not a fan of the preview via Amazon.

Well, I looked at in Google Chrome and, while I wasn't very interested in the preview of the story, I was very interested in back pages. The third title in the Nancy Drew: The New Case Files is going to be a crossover with the Hardy boys! And, now, I think I know why they're calling these series "The New Case Files" - they like the original Casefiles are game-changers for their characters.

Ah yes, game changers for sure! That's a good phrase. First in the original Casefiles, Iola is killed spiraling many different issues. In this new series, the boys start off on edge and end up breaking up for an unknown amount of time. How is this going to affect their cases, their big case with Nancy Drew, and personal/home life?

SPOILERS follow!

Plus, in both the Nancy Drew Files and now in the Nancy Drew: The New Case Files Nancy breaks-up with Ned.

That could be a bad thing! I don't want her with Frank! Or Joe.

MacGyver · December 13, 2010, 12:29:14 AM

I might be wrong, but I thought they were already kind of playing around with that in the UB Supermysteries anyway.

Your in the minority, though.

MacGyver · December 13, 2010, 06:08:29 PM

I'd rather not see this happen either.

hardygirl847 · December 14, 2010, 10:10:17 AM

Minority...yeah I know. A lot of people want that to happen. I don't mind if they flirt with the idea, but HBs are not about romance. Sure there's a little here and there...but it's about action and adventure. Oh yeah...and mystery.

SDLagent · December 14, 2010, 06:26:42 PM

Well, keep in kind that the new crossover is taking place in a Nancy Drew title and that series has been known to have a bit more romance than The Hardy Boys proper.

Olivia · December 15, 2010, 08:01:10 PM

I prefer if they focus on the mystery and action too, but I'm not really against "that" certain pairing.

Maybe everyone should stay single. Belinda, Callie, Vanessa and Ned are all dead weights, anyway. Placeholders. (Half-kidding).
