So. Tempted by Dean's evil tempter blog, I wandered into the world of comic book stores and single issue offerings once more. I now remember why I quit this habit some years ago: I hate cliffhangers, waiting, and I can never make the comic reading last too long. It took me longer to wade through annotations to the two issues than reading the comic itself.

But. Yes, it's quite good. Artwork very much like Wolverine: Origin - beautifully done, and of course, reads just like a Gaiman piece; it would read well on its own, but when annotated takes another life of its own, down avenues and streets that are otherwise invisible.

So. 6 more to go. I hate waiting.
