Aug 16, 2009In summation, Mr Chaykin has always royally entertained me over the years. From his captivating 'Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser' debut in 1973 right up until I had finished the final page of this book I have always felt that I was reading the material of one of the best panelogical producers in the entire history of comics.
