I just did (my first comic in a while, actually), and it had some interesting stuff in it, but felt a bit rushed and simplistic.Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08014014605639738887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5781642913058207208.post-62624289218178571082008-09-19T18:04:00.000-04:002008-09-19T18:04:00.000-04:00Richard-Yes, it is self-contained.

I like me a good Super-story, but I haven't been keeping up in years... but I keep hearing about this series.Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08014014605639738887noreply@blogger.com
