ප්රමාණ සමික්ෂකවරයෙකු වන්නේ කෙසේද? | How to become a Quantity Surveyor?
40 comments:
ReplyDeleteYes NDQS is by NAITA, i corrected it. Thank you
Civil engineering courses like NDT, NDES has the subject " Quantity Surveying". The those students are getting QS knowledge through it(But bot like BSc or NCT Qs's).Also they have a good construction background.
Also there is a high demand for QS's in Sri Lanka and abrod than Civil engineers also they are well paid.
But the supply of QS's are quite less. Because untill last 2-3 years we have only BSc and NCT courses.
Then those people with NDT, NDES qualifications try to jump in to the QS field.
Also they are going for less salary than a qualified QS.
I think peoples with NDT,HNDE,NDES qualification should be need to get a acceptable QS qualification if they want to continue their carrier as a QS.I thin IQSSL is the best place for that. I think those peoples can get exceptions from some subjects also.
IQSSL is conducting courses under "College of Quantity Surveying". The course is in three levels. Completion of the course is the first step to became a charted QS.
I Know some of QS's in middle east with NDT,HNDE qualifications are doing there Msc also.
IQSSL T.P - 0112595570I disagree with QS's comment on Civil Engineering Diploma holders.Dilan is correct.Civil Engineering Diploma holders are having a sound construction background.That is vital in the field to carry out a job as an Quantity Surveyor (both pre-contract & post-construction works).Civil Engineering Diploma courses also covers most of the subjects that covers under QS courses.But I also agree that Civil Engineers must improve there knowledge in the field of QS by studying professional course (specially conducted by College of QS).
ReplyDelete@ sajeewa:
Thank you for the comment.
But the your saying "Civil engineering diploma courses also covers most of the QS subjects" is not correct.
Aim of a Civil engineering course is to generate a Civil engineer, and also aim of a QS course is to generate a QS.
Civil Engineer and QS are two different professionals.While a Civil Engineer mainly responsible for the Quality of a product, QS mainly responsible for the Cost of the product.
Both courses are designed to provide required knowledge for each profession.The knowledge required for QS and Engineer are different.
But there are some subjects common for both Engineering and QS courses, for an example Land surveying and IT; but not most subjects only a few subjects.
While Quantity surveyors studying the Quantity surveying as a Diploma/Degree Civil Engineers are studying Quantity surveying as a subject.- Anonymous26 October 2010 at 10:53
I think this is not problem with profession, There is hidden truth, It is QS has good demand in Industry

IQSSL is the most professional way to become a Quantity Surveyor.But why can't they provide a suitable Qualification like a Diploma or HND....Become a CHARTED QUANTITY SURVEYOR through the IQSSL is not a easy thing...So they should provide BSc equilant Qualifications to level 3 students.
ReplyDeleteReplies* "Those who pass Level 3 Examination are eligible for applying for Technical Membership of the Institute. Technical member with one year post qualifying experience is on the same Level as a Graduate Member......"
* "Qualification for Middle level management - Level 1(QS-Grade 3)is Graduate member of Technical member with 1 year post qualifying experience"

Corcino was selected off waivers by Dodgers from the Reds on April 17.
Corcino appeared in five games for the Reds, starting three, in 2014, where he went 0-2 with a 4.34 ERA.
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
He is batting .417 (5 for 12) with one triple, one home run and three RBI in his last four games. He also had the game-winning hit in the 10th inning Thursday against the Dodgers.
"Right now with the way he's playing, he's earned it," manager Bruce Bochy said, per CSN Bay Area. "I like his at-bats, and not just the hit to win the game, but the quality of the at-bats has been very good. I look at the patience he's shown, particularly with two strikes. He's not panicking. He's quiet up there and not expanding the zone. He's keeping his composure up there. He's not chasing."
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
"He was hitting off a tee, going to right (field), pulling the ball, hitting soft toss," Bochy said. "It was really amazing. He had incredible bat control today. He was going toward (the right-center portion of the cage) and every ball was to the same spot. It was pretty impressive."

In his one appearance this season on Thursday, Bolsinger started and allowed one run on five hits in 5 2/3 innings for a no decision.
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
Colby Rasmus started in center field for Marisnick, who is batting .389 (14 for 36) with one triple, one home run, two doubles, five RBI, six runs and four stolen bases in his last 12 games.
by Shawn Krest | CBSSports.com
Nolasco was originally supposed to start for Class-A Cedar Rapids on Saturday. Instead, he'll take the mound on Sunday, per the Star Tribune.
There is a 90 percent chance of rain on Saturday, which led to the change in the schedule.

However, there are a few minor issues left to be ironed out, according to Heyman. It will likely take another day or two to finalize the trade.
MLB.com was first to report this afternoon the Rangers were in talks with the Angels about a deal for Hamilton, who was a five-time All-Star for the Rangers from 2008-12.
The Angels have not been happy since the news broke in February that Hamilton suffered a drug relapse. Major League Baseball made the announcement in early April that Hamilton will not be suspended for the relapse since it did not violate his drug treatment program.
Hamilton has yet to play this season, as he is working his way back from shoulder surgery. Hamilton is rehabbing in Houston and could begin full baseball activities next week, sources told FOX Sports.
Hamilton's tenure with the Angels was not a pleasant one. On top of his drug relapse, he hit just .255 with 31 home runs and 123 RBI in 240 games since he signed a five-year, $125 million contract following the 2012 season.
Hamilton had a great run with the Rangers, posting a .305/.363/.549/.912 slash line in five seasons with the club. He won the 2010 AL MVP award with the Rangers as well.

Doolittle is expected to throw 20 to 25 pitches from flat ground on Sunday and gradually move to the next step from there.
"It was the best I've felt," Doolittle said.
Doolittle tore his rotator cuff this past January.
by Shawn Krest | CBSSports.com
Manager Matt Matheny said that progress in Grichuk's rehab has been "slow", per MLB.com.
Wilhelmsen was placed on the 15-day disabled list in mid-April and has been rehabbing since. He will likely throw a bullpen session in Houston next week.

Harrell leads No. 6 Louisville to blowout win over Missouri St
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP)
Louisville's final home game for nearly a month was especially memorable because of its precision in a lopsided victory against Missouri State.
Certainly, the sixth-ranked Cardinals have room to improve in many areas as they prepare for four road contests over 23 days including a Dec. 28 showdown against in-state rival No. 19 Kentucky in Lexington. For now, the defending national champions look forward to building on its best overall performance of the season.
Montrezl Harrell had 17 points and eight rebounds, and Louisville manhandled the Bears 90-60 on Tuesday night.
The Cardinals (10-1) took control early and never let up against the Bears (8-2). They combined dominant rebounding and offensive accuracy during a 16-0 first-half run for a 19-4 lead in the first meeting between the schools since 2006.
Harrell was among four Cardinals with at least eight rebounds each, a combination that alone outdid MSU in Louisville's 51-30 domination of the boards including 20-10 offensively. They also outscored the Bears 46-28 inside and held them to 38 percent shooting to close a 5-0 home stand.
Asked if this was Louisville's best effort to date, Harrell answered, "I'd say so. It was a great win. The first half we really got into it, (and it) got us going."
Senior guard Russ Smith added 11 points and eight assists, while freshman Terry Rozier had 11 points and eight rebounds. Forwards Stephan Van Treese and Mangok Mathiang combined for 17 rebounds for Louisville, which shot 34 of 66 from the field (52 percent).
Louisville coach Rick Pitino agreed that it was the best he has seen his team play, adding, "I don't know what was better, the defense, the offense or the offensive rebounding. It was just awesome in the first half."
Jarmar Gulley's 14 points led the Bears, whose two-game winning streak was thoroughly halted by a Cardinals squad that controlled every facet of the game.
MSU led Louisville 4-3 before the Cardinals seized the pace with the big run. The Bears never got closer than 17 after that, spoiling Paul Lusk's 100th career game as a coach.
"They just dominated us on the glass," Lusk said. "They've got a lot of talent but they also play so darn hard. We just simply couldn't keep them off the glass. That was the telltale of the game."
Missouri State brought some impressive credentials into its second meeting against Louisville and first since losing to the Cardinals in the 2006 NIT. The Bears were runners-up to Virginia in the Corpus Christi Challenge, a four-game run that included a win over previously unbeaten Texas A&M.
They also boasted an impressive scoring combination in Gulley and Marcus Marshall, who had combined for nearly 27 points per game coming in and were developing into a strong scoring duo in just four games together. Against the Cardinals, though, they combined for only 22 points as Marshall finished with eight.
MSU's bench was outscored 32-26, 10 points below their average.
Louisville welcomed back point guard Chris Jones from a one-game absence because of a sprained right wrist. Rozier started but the 5-foot-10 junior came in five minutes later with the wrist bandaged and finished with nine points in 19 minutes.
The Cardinals were in the midst of their key run when Jones entered. The sequence was highlighted by Chane Behanan's thunderous one-handed dunk off of Van Treese's long lead pass and Rozier's steal of the inbounds pass and layup seconds later. Louisville continued to overwhelm MSU, which was outrebounded 20-5 through 13 minutes and 27-10 overall in the first half.
That statistic offered the best indicator of Louisville's defensive effort, which disrupted the Bears' dribbling, passing and shot selection. The Cardinals nearly matched their per-game blocks average (4.6) by the break alone, finishing with seven and answering everything MSU attempted.
"They switched defenses a lot," said MSU guard/forward Keith Pickens, who had four points. "It was sometimes hard to read. I think it came down to rebounding early. They killed us on the offensive glass."
Louisville's offense was just as effective, as the Cardinals dissected MSU's zone and muscled their way for baskets. Louisville also had 14 assists and recorded seven blocks.
"If we play defense like that, we can beat any team in the country," Rozier said.

Ludlowville Falls In Autumn I

PLEASE NOTE: The "Fine Art America" lettering seen on the screen exists only to limit online theft and WILL NOT APPEAR ON THE FINAL PRINT. Image �2012 Michele Steffey, All Rights Reserved. Unauthorized use prohibited.
A foggy, overcast day in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York provided a peaceful and somewhat dreamy mood at Ludlowville Falls, punctuated by pops of late autumn color.
This image displays especially well as a canvas print or a photographic art print.
If you like this work, please check out the other images in my Finger Lakes gallery on this site!
The Finger Lakes are a pattern of lakes in the west-central section of Upstate New York in the United States. The lakes originated as a series of northward-flowing streams, further sculpted by the continental glaciers of the Laurentide Ice Sheet. Many creeks and streams, interspersed by numerous waterfalls, traverse steep gorges to feed the lakes with water from rain and snowmelt. The eleven Finger Lakes from east to west are: Otisco, Skaneateles, Owasco, Cayuga, Seneca, Keuka, Canandaigua, Honeoye, Canadice, Hemlock, and Conesus. Cazenovia Lake to the east, although smaller, is sometimes called "the twelfth Finger Lake. Oneida Lake, to the northeast of Syracuse, New York, is sometimes included as the "thumb," although it is shallow and somewhat different in character from the rest. The Finger Lakes area is New York's largest wine producing region, and the region has been designated the The Finger Lakes American Viticulture Area (AVA). Over 100 wineries and vineyards are located around Seneca, Cayuga, Canandaigua, Keuka, Conesus and Hemlock lakes. Because of the lakes' great depth, they provide a lake effect to the lush vineyards that flank their shores. The area is also known for education, with well known institutions of higher learning including ivy league Cornell University in Ithaca, fine art notable Ithaca College, and Wells College in Aurora. Nearby New York State Parks include Taughannock Falls State Park, Buttermilk Falls State Park, Watkins Glen State Park, Filmore Glen State Park, and Robert H. Treman State Park.

WILKES-BARRE — For a diehard fantasy-football fanatic, it's no longer a case of rooting for the home team but a matter of rooting for his or her own team, one created and pored over and rearranged perhaps countless times.
Millions of fantasy-team owners engage in growing numbers every year in this battle tied to the National Football League, and the name of the game is usually besting and beating your closest friends.
In this world, nobody really cares which NFL team wins or loses anymore. Instead, it's all about who scores.
For years, groups of all sorts have gathered in garages, hotel rooms, bars, patios, basements, living rooms and cabins to hold the drafts at which they choose — with varied reasoning — the players who will make up their fantasy teams. With any luck, an armchair coach's selections will rack up enough collective points to catapult him or her to victory and perhaps a big pot. In Northeastern Pennsylvania, the time-consuming, friendship-cementing pastime has taken hold every bit as much as it has across the rest of the football-watching land.
Justin Eddy, Brian Harris and Randy Knappman are three friends who participate in multiple fantasy leagues.
Knappman, a 31-year-old jeweler, is in 11 leagues. He has been playing fantasy football for 14 years. How can he keep track of 11 teams, more than 100 players and still have a real life?
"I just root for everybody," he said. "I probably have whoever scores on one of my teams."
Eddy, 32 of Pringle, works in the electronic security business, and Harris, his best friend, is a 34-year-old businessman from Newport Township. Harris once bragged he was ranked 87th in the world by some fantasy-football website. His friends just scoff at the boast, noting they are ahead of him in one of their leagues.
And that's what it's about — winning and points, points, points. You can never get enough points, diehards say.
"We had a guy in our league who was losing, and he didn't care about his team," Harris said. "He wouldn't make any changes, so we kicked him out."
But they remained friends.
Eddy takes it to a different level. A devout Denver Broncos fan, he struggles with picking up players on teams playing the Broncos.
"I can't root for a guy to score because it would hurt the Broncos' chances of winning," he said. "I don't want anybody playing against the Broncos to do well."
Websites do the work to compile the statistics. In the years before website development, league leaders would have to rely on newspapers to accurately report the statistics from each game. That took a lot of time and effort, and mistakes could be costly.
Even while getting interviewed about their little addiction, Eddy, Harris and Knappman constantly checked their phones to catch instant updates on player injuries and statuses for the coming week.
"Oh no, Larry Fitzgerald and Roddy White are both out," Knappman shouted. "I have them both on one team. I gotta find out who's available."
The pace is constant and frenetic. As Harris said, it's not about the money, even though some fantasy leagues offer big payoffs.
"I just want to win," Harris said. "I want to beat them."
As a league commissioner, Harris said, he sometimes has to make decisions "for the integrity of the league." That gives you some idea as to the level of commitment fantasy players make.
"Fantasy football is so popular now that the major networks make reference to it all the time," Harris said. "If a guy gets hurt or has a huge day, you will hear them say, 'If you have him on your fantasy roster … ' ESPN and the NFL Network have fantasy-football shows."
All three of the local guys have significant others and children, but, make no mistake, fantasy football is not talked about much at the dinner table.
"They know not to bother me on Sundays between 1 p.m. and 7 p.m.," Knappman joked.

Hugh Jackman (Lost 20, Gained 30)
It's hard to keep track of how often Jackman gets jacked, but he's played Wolverine six times already, so there's that. For Les Miserables, though, he needed to look the part of a prisoner in pre-Revolutionary France, so he lost about 20 pounds before filming – and then gained 30 during production as his character became stronger. At one point, he admitted, he stopped drinking liquid for 26 hours to hollow out his cheeks and eyes: "I do not recommended it."
The Bottom Line:
Sure, dehydration will make you look thinner, but it's extremely dangerous.

Mapped wave envelope elements for acoustical radiation and scattering
Astley, R.J., Macaulay, G.J. and Coyette, J.P. (1994) Mapped wave envelope elements for acoustical radiation and scattering. Journal of Sound and Vibration, 170, (1), 97-118. (doi:10.1006/jsvi.1994.1048).
Full text not available from this repository.
Wave envelope elements provide an alternative to boundary element methods for the solution of exterior wave problems. Applications to date have been to axisymmetric geometries and have involved the use of large, but finite, wave envelope meshes compatibly matched to denser, near field meshes of conventional elements. In the present paper the wave envelope idea is extended by the inclusion of an element mapping, taken directly from infinite element methodology, and by modifications to the residual formulation. Taken in conjunction, these two measures permit the outer boundary of the wave envelope region to be moved to infinity while preserving the boundedness of the acoustic mass and stiffness integrals. The present formulation is developed initially with reference to a simple one-dimensional model and is then applied in two and three dimensions. Comparisons between computed results and those obtained from analytic solutions, where applicable, and from boundary element codes demonstrate the effectiveness of the method.

We actually get to see Royal Canadian MOUNTED Police. Excellent action on a hijacked train with action, adventure, romance, music, terrorists. Really - what more can you ask for?
- Trivia & Quotes
Quotes (8)
Buck Frobisher: What are you doing in my toilet? Benton Fraser: I've come to debrief you, sir. Buck Frobisher: Something wrong with the door?
Margaret Thatcher: What about the fellow with the big ears? Randal Bolt: Ross Perot? Margaret Thatcher: No. I was talking Mickey Mouse.
Benton Fraser: I give up, what is the perfume your wearing? Margaret Thatcher: I'm not wearing any.
Margaret Thatcher: (Regarding their kiss.) You realize, Fraser, that what happened between us can never repeat itself. Unless of course the exact same circumstances were to repeat themselves. Robert Fraser: By "exact same circumstances", sir, do you mean we would have to be aboard a train loaded with unconscious Mounties that had been taken over by terrorists and were heading for a nuclear catastrophe? Margaret Thatcher: Exactly.
Buck Frobisher: I've found the brake. Robert Fraser: What makes you think it's the brake? Buck Frobisher: It's written right on it, "brake". Robert Fraser: Huh, could be a ruse. Buck Frobisher: To what end? Robert Fraser: Something criminal. Buck Frobisher: Are you insinuating that an entire design crew has deliberately mislabeled the key elements of a train? Robert Fraser: It's possible. Buck Frobisher: I'm talking to a lunatic.
Notes (1)
Music used in this episode included Ride Forever performed by Paul Gross and written by Gross and David Keeley.
Trivia (2)
Benton Fraser realises that his father must be a ghost and not a figment of his imagination, as Buck Frobisher can see him as well.
In the scene where an unconscious mountie is thrown off the train and lands on the farmhouse dinner table: in real life, every bone in his body would probably have been broken! (submitted by Phillip F.)
Allusions (2)
Thatcher: No, I was thinking Mickey Mouse. This is a reference to the famous Disney character. The RCMP used to have problems controlling their image for products and promotions so they contracted the Disney Company who now control any RCMP related merchandising.
Three of the hijackers were named for well-known playwrights: Albee (Edward), Brecht (Bertholt) and Racine (Jean).

Art Briles removes name from Texas job search
Baylor football coach Art Briles took his name out of the running for the Texas vacancy Friday morning by expressing plans to remain in Waco on his Twitter account and by releasing a statement through school officials.
"I have no desire to pursue other coaching positions," Briles said in the statement.
Briles, who led the Bears to an 11-2 record and the first Big 12 championship in school history, has been mentioned as a candidate for the Texas job and the Washington Redskins job in recent days. In Washington, Briles would be reunited with quarterback Robert Griffin III, who became Baylor's lone Heisman Trophy winner while playing for Briles in 2011.
Briles, 58, appeared to slam the door on both opportunities Friday. On his Twitter account, @CoachArtBriles, he posted: "Contrary to reports and rumors I am a Baylor Bear — 2013 Big 12 Champs." Briles' post appeared shortly before 10 a.m.
Soon thereafter, he issued a statement through Baylor school officials, expressing that he had no desire to pursue other coaching opportunities.
"As I've said many times, I am both humbled and honored to be the head coach at Baylor University, and believe we have something special going here," Briles said. "I look forward to leading the Bears onto the field next fall and McLane Stadium and defending our Big 12 championship that our players and coaches worked so hard to win this season.
"There is tremendous excitement for our program's future, and I look forward to many more great seasons at Baylor."
Briles recently signed a 10-year extension with the school but there had been speculation that Texas officials would be willing to pay the reported $4 million buyout to bring Briles to Austin to coach the Longhorns. Mack Brown resigned as Texas coach last month.

Forensic scientist notes iOS 'back doors'
Jonathan Zdziarski, a forensic scientist and the author of five iOS-related books, has posted slides from a recent conference talk titled "Identifying Back Doors, Attack Points, and Surveillance Mechanisms in iOS Devices." Zdziarski's talk, which he gave at the recent HOPE/X conference in New York, reveals an overview "of a number of undocumented high-value forensic services running on every iOS device," including "suspicious design omissions in iOS that make collection easier." While Zdziarski characterizes iOS devices as "reasonably secure," there are undocumented services that can bypass backup encryption, and can be accessed via USB and wirelessly — over WiFi and "maybe cellular." He notes the "personal nature of the data" is carried in a raw format, which would make it useless for tech support.
Notably, Zdziarski claims that commercial forensic software manufacturers are taking advantage of these backdoor iOS services to develop forensic tools that law enforcement agencies can use to easily extract data from seized devices. He notes that Apple is allowing packet sniffing without permission and is "dishing out a lot of data behind our backs." Although Zdziarski raises suspicion to the nature of these services and notes that they "shouldn't be there," several of the services he identifies are in fact well-known internal Apple processes for handling things such as device activation, background iCloud and iTunes backup, and iTunes synchronization—processes that by design need to function without requiring the user to first unlock their device. For more details, the slides are available here. [via ZDNet]

List of Amalgam Comics publications
This article needs additional citations for verification. (June 2009) |
Near the end of the DC vs. Marvel crossover event in 1996, Amalgam Comics released a series of one-shot comic books combining characters from the Marvel Universe with characters from the DC Universe. The first twelve Amalgam titles were released in a single week, temporarily replacing both publishers' regular releases. Half the comics in the event were published by Marvel Comics and half by DC Comics. A year later, the stunt was repeated, but without the crossover as background. Later, both publishers collected their issues into trade paperback collections.[1]
In the 24 Amalgam Comics titles printed, one-third of those printed included letter-columns by fictitious fans to give a larger background to the stories and to help give hints of what might happen in the next issue. The "fans'" hometowns were usually fusions of existing American cities.[2]
1996 - DC Comics[edit]
Amazon, written and drawn by John Byrne, featured Amazon aka Princess Ororo Munroe of Themiscyra.[3]
Assassins, written by Dan Chichester and illustrated by Scott McDaniel, featured two main characters, Catsai and Dare the Terminator. Despite their enmity, they team up to take on the Big Question and his gang.[3]
Doctor Strangefate[edit]
Doctor Strangefate was written by Ron Marz with art by José Luis García-López and Kevin Nowlan. The issue features the powerful mystic Doctor Strangefate. His comic also featured the character Access and highlights his adventures in between issues of the DC vs. Marvel miniseries.[4] This book was reprinted in the DC versus Marvel trade paperback due to its part in the overall story.
JLX was written by Gerard Jones and Mark Waid, with art by Howard Porter and John Dell. The members of the Judgment League Avengers whose powers are mutant in origin turn against their teammates and form their own team, JLX. They leave to find Atlantis. The JLX returned in another title in the 1997 series of Amalgam comics, titled JLX Unleashed.
Legends of the Dark Claw[edit]
Legends of the Dark Claw was written by Larry Hama with art by Jim Balent and Ray McCarthy. Dark Claw returned in another title in the 1997 Amalgam comics, titled Dark Claw Adventures.
Super Soldier[edit]
Super Soldier was written by Mark Waid and illustrated by Dave Gibbons.[5]
An experimental infusion of alien DNA transforms the human Clark Kent into Super Soldier, hero of World War II. After a suspended animation, he is revived in modern times. He fought against Green Skull, Ultra-Metallo and the terrorist organization Hydra.[3][6]
The main character also appeared in JLX as a member of the JLA, again a year later in Super Soldier: Man of War, and again as part of the JLA in JLX Unleashed.
1996 - Marvel Comics[edit]
Bruce Wayne Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.[edit]
Bruce Wayne Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. was written by Chuck Dixon with art by Cary Nord and Mark Pennington.
Bullets and Bracelets[edit]

Speed Demon[edit]
Speed Demon was written by Howard Mackie and James Felder with art by Salvador Larroca and Al Milgrom.
Spider-Boy was written by Karl Kesel with art by Mike Wieringo and Gary Martin. Spider-Boy, the titular character, is a clone whose gravity powers enable him to mimic the wall-crawling abilities of a spider. This character returned in another Spider-Boy title in the 1997 Amalgam comics, titled Spider-Boy Team-Up. Spider-Boy is a crossover of the characters Spider-Man and Superboy.
The team returned in another title in the 1997 Amalgam comics, titled Exciting X-Patrol.
1997 - DC Comics[edit]
Bat-Thing - Someone to Watch Over Me was written by Larry Hama with art by Rodolfo Damaggio and Bill Sienkiewicz. The titular character Bat-Thing attacked people in the street of New Gotham City, and the detective Clark Bullock tried to protect the Bat-Thing's wife and daughter from the monster.[7]
Dark Claw Adventures[edit]
Dark Claw Adventures was written illustrated by Ty Templeton and Rick Burchett. This "animated series" version of the Dark Claw comic used an art style that mirrored Batman: The Animated Series and was similar to the Batman Adventures comic. Lady Talia pursued the Dark Claw to avenge the killing of her father, Ra's A-pocalypse.[7]
Generation Hex[edit]
Generation Hex was written by Peter Milligan with art by Adam Pollina. The comic featured a team of mutants, the Malforms, suffering prejudice and living by robbery in the Old West. Their leader, Jono Hex, helps them escape a trio of mutant-hunting robots sent by Marshal Trask and get revenge on his hometown Humanity.[2][7][8]
JLX Unleashed[edit]
JLX Unleashed was written by Christopher Priest with art by Oscar Jimenez and Hanibal Rodriguez. This second outing of the JLX sees them joined by Amazon. The Hellfire League of Injustice summons up the dragon Fin Fang Flame to destroy all metamutants. The dragon decides to incinerate the entirety of humanity, since "All humanity, after all, is mutated to some extent". The Judgment League Avengers and the JLX ally to defeat it.[7]
Lobo the Duck[edit]
Lobo the Duck was written by Alan Grant with art by Val Semeiks and Ray Kryssing.
The story revolves around the fearless, muscular, anti-hero bounty hunter Lobo the Duck and his shapeshifting canine sidekick Impossible Dawg who are investigating the murders of several Amalgam Comics superheroes, including Doctor Strangefate, Super-Soldier, Aqua Mariner, Dare the Terminator, and Hawkhawk.
Lobo only agrees to find the murderer(s) as the aforementioned heroes had paid him upfront. Lobo fights his way through Gold Kidney Lady, Doctor Bongface, and various other supervillains before he realizes that the end of the world is about to begin and only he can stop it.
Some other minor characters introduced in Lobo the Duck include Ambush the Lunatik, a fellow bounty hunter that was eaten by Lobo after angering him; Al Forbush, the owner of Al Forbush's Subterranean Diner; and Jonas Turnip.
Super Soldier: Man of War[edit]
Super Soldier: Man of War was written by Dave Gibbons and Mark Waid, with art by Dave Gibbons and Jimmy Palmiotti. This comic presented Super Soldier (Clark Kent) in the style of the Golden Age World War II comics. Clark Kent and Jimmy Olsen are sent to England to follow a mysterious cargaison of stolen equipment desired by the Nazis.[2][7]
1997 - Marvel Comics[edit]
