And gee, look at that -- it's got terrific artwork by Sean Phillips, too. Those guys must know what they're doing.<BR/><BR/>Word confirmation: jlabmn.

The two "seasons" were my favorite read every month they came out and I am still holding my breath for Criminal to match it. What was the name of that third henchman who hated Carver? I can never recall but he was a great villain.Winterteethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02260144482236463864noreply@blogger.com
