At first, I was hesitant because of the seemingly obvious bandwagon jumping-on, but then I remembered Uncanny X-Men Annual #6…

January 19, 2009 3:44 am @eyun - you mean "re-cremated her body". It was already pretty fried when she found it...
January 19, 2009 3:40 am I work Friday nights so I waited to download this on iTunes, and i sat at work tonight in the backroom, completely ignoring my duties and watching this on my iPod. I also would be dissappointed if Ellen Tigh was the fifth cylon, but I seriously doubt that they would give up that secret this early in the final batch of episodes. I like @jstumps idea that she's an aged Six. When this is all said and done though, I want to see a timeline of events, cuz for some reason, I feel like they're counting on people forgetting certain things that have been said and done that might conflict with whats happening now. If the humans built the cylons originally, and the cylons developed the skin jobs on their own, how were there skin jobs that long ago on Earth? Was it a seperate race that developed cylons and skin jobs seperately (kinda like how Aztecs and Egyptians developed similar systems of numbers and math at the same time with no contact with each other, pyramids too?), even though they said that all the bodies on Earth were cylon? Did humans first exist on Earth, build cylons, leave Earth to the cylons (who then nuked Earth and stuff) to go colonize the other colonies, and did they completely forget about that, build cylons again, and then the skin jobs found the toasters and organized the destruction of Caprica and the other colonies, forgetting that 5 of their models survived? I can see how the humans might block a lot of that from their collective consciousness, but wouldn't the skin jobs have records of them leaving Earth? My mind is (obviously) racing with questions!!!
January 15, 2009 12:41 am great review ron, ill probably pick up the trade when this comes out. im not a trade waiter or anything, but your words in this very review have finally convinved me that i should be reading this. while id prefer single issues, the trade will have to do since i came late to this picnic.
January 14, 2009 3:42 am All I need is clippers and an hour in front of the mirror. Thats right, I'm gonna shave the logo into my chest!
January 5, 2009 10:05 am Great book. Almost my PotW, until I read Proof of course.
January 5, 2009 10:03 am I love it when a reviewer addresses the creators directly. It always makes me feel like you want to bypass any assholes who feel the need to review your review. Which I'm trying really hard not to do, so I won't say "great review". Instead I'll just say, I totally agree with you. How many issues was this arc anyway?
January 5, 2009 9:59 am Awesome review!
January 5, 2009 9:58 am This issue was absolutely wonderful. Probably the best issue of the series so far. Easily my PotW, and more people should be reading this.
January 5, 2009 9:56 am I decided against picking this up. The quality of the first ish didn't outweigh the standard cons of Kevin Smith books. I think he's better with peripheral B list characters like Green Arrow and Daredevil, and not big flagship characters like this. His Batman would probably seem more in character 10 or 15 years ago, but not in the current comic book climate.
