This was a big issue that caught readers up to everything in the opening 8-9 pages, which was really helpful, because I am a monthly comic reader, and I forgot stuff over the eight months this was missing. What I remembered, or was delighted to have the book remind me of, was how charming and funny and fun this comic can be--anytime I put a comic down for a break because I am laughing is a good sign. This was a really, really good comic, sexy, funny, propelling the plot forward, always aware of propelling Jon and Suzie's characterization forward. Good fucking stuff. Oh, and the Fiona Staples cover is crazy.
