kinda made me feel more childish. i mean yeah I'm 31 and reading comics, but now i'm on my couch reading them on my big screen tv. maybe it was the production value that made it feel childish. hmm, maybe it was the idea that i was wasting valuable energy reading a comic on the tv while the book was sitting on my shelf. i don't know, just wasn't into it.  

 how about this? where is volume 4 hardcover!?
