    I only found this out the other day, now I can’t wait for it. I love Casey’s indy books.

    If I see this on the shelves of my comic book shop this week, there is a good chance that I will be picking it up.

    Yup.  I went ahead and pulled this based on the iFanboy recommendations.  Thanks, guys!  Another $5 that could’ve been alcohol.

    Burnham’s art saves this one-shot.  Not bad form from Casey… but not anywhere near his best either.

    Did anyone else have any problems with the printing?

     

    My copy had, on two seperate occasions, 4 pages missing and instead a reprinting of the previous 4 pages, which ruined the two big action scenes.

     I hope my comic shop replaces it, because for the most part seemed very fun, fantastical and tounge in cheek – not everything has to be serious!
