And there are, let's see...four other Bat-books that I'm definitely planning on reading already. <br /><br />I'll definitely check it out in trade when it gets to a library, though.Calebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01391759187396994380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-194271195493155962009-05-31T14:10:27.785-07:002009-05-31T14:10:27.785-07:00Caleb,

You liked Runaways a lot so you want to add it back on but considering a lot of the reason you liked it was that Yost was writing it wouldn't it make more sense to follow Yost onto his next new book (being Red Robin, I think), instead of adding Runaways back on given that he won't be writing it?Matt Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11471002482074216223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-86901186489206660332009-05-31T12:21:38.796-07:002009-05-31T12:21:38.796-07:00Different Baron Blood.
