    I think this might be the first time I’ve ever bought anything that featured both a swastika and the Star of David prominently. Should be an interesting story.

    I hope they kick Goebbels right in the groin. I know, cheap shot, but I think it would be fitting to give the prince of Nazi flowery, aspiring propoganda language a street-level, mundane everyday punch in the yum yums.

    Every time a comics has a swastika on the cover I am afraid my shop can’t order it.

    SPOILERS

    @JimBilly4 – I can’t think of a more fitting end for Goebbels than being bludgeoned to death with his own propaganda.

    I am not particularly fond of the way Tom fixed everything by sticking his hand in the "story".  I wanted there to me more to it than that (perhaps there is and that will be revealed later, but it felt too abrupt for my taste).

    The best part of this issue was the essay by Carey an Gross. Really interesting stuff

    Wow this issue was great!  Totally changed/re-defined for me the meaning of the title of the book – The Unwritten.  I thought it referred to books never written.

    I’ll add a ditto regarding the essay.  Hope it’s included in the collected trade. 

    @stuclach – You’re right.  It seemed like a too-simple fix for the problem.  We’ll see…  there might be more to it.  There’s definitely more to Tommy being shot.  He did ‘die’.  He’s probably not ‘alive’ to begin with.

    Art saved what was a slightly anti-climatic resolution to the stroy gone bad. He got mad at his father, starbranded up, and poof, problem solved? Still scored a 4, but that broke a string of 5s that was fairly unprecedented for me outside of JH Williams Detective.
