They might collect it, and if not, it will be in $1 bins at Mid-Ohio Comic Con next fall." <BR/><BR/>Ultimately I decided to wait it out, and I'm glad I did.Calebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01391759187396994380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-13241290059930541762007-09-10T13:36:00.000-07:002007-09-10T13:36:00.000-07:00I'd go so far as to recommend picking up the trade...I'd go so far as to recommend picking up the trades. Seriously, this is one of my favorite titles and a lot of it has to do with something you mentioned - the interaction between Jaime, Paco and Brenda. Plus the stories are fun, they actually make some sort of sense from month to month, and the writing just keeps getting tighter.<BR/><BR/>True, not every issue is gold, but none of them are crap, either, and it all tends to work toward developing the character and his world. (And yeah, the book picked up a lot of energy once Rogers was on his own).Maxohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07748486083449206825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-28367495780013884322007-09-10T09:50:00.000-07:002007-09-10T09:50:00.000-07:00I too was a tad on the skeptical side at first, bu...I too was a tad on the skeptical side at first, but was one over almost immediately. Do try and find some of the back issues. The one with Guy Gardner which I believe is #14, is both hilarious and touching, and brings in Ted Kord as well. <BR/><BR/>Great stuff.SallyPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05592635194271250605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-57754394627544338192007-09-09T23:30:00.000-07:002007-09-09T23:30:00.000-07:00You didn't like the first issue of BB?I actually t...You didn't like the first issue of BB?<BR/><BR/>I actually thought it was a really great, fun introduction to the character!Mike Haseloffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13245812535350962900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-68435378846346403972007-09-09T22:44:00.000-07:002007-09-09T22:44:00.000-07:00She runs afoul of Traci 13, a character I had mana...<I>She runs afoul of Traci 13, a character I had managed to have never read a story featuring before.</I><BR/><BR/>Oh, then you need to keep an eye out for the trade paperback collection of <A HREF="http://gadsircomics.blogspot.com/2007/05/review-dr-13-architecture-mortality.html" REL="nofollow">Dr 13: Architecture and Mortality</A>.Steve Flanaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03213873565793377832noreply@blogger.com
