I've always dug the artwork\style of comic books, but have never been one to sit and read or collect them. More of an admirer of the art form. That said, I do read the Star Wars comic strips regularly http://dailysw.blogspot.com/.

Anyway, with all the discussion of the future of the EU and in particular the comic books, I decided to look back at the early versions. The first ones, to be precise.

I discovered that they were combined into a paperback many years ago. Now that is something I'd sit down and read. Don't care that it's B&W, don't care that it's smaller (shut up Frink). ;-)

What are the board's thoughts on this? There are plenty of them available used;
