jrob29 Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) I agree with the quality of card stock. Good looking book. The only problem with making a lunch run on wednesdays though, is that my books sit on my desk taunting me until I can get home, as they are doing right now.

krighton Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 some bindery ticks on the ones I've seen, though nothing major....should be a ton of 9.8s at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wushugushu Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Okay I loved the first issue. Definitely more dense than I expected it to be for a Hickman first issue but I believe that will be good since many of his first issues leave people "confused". Never had that problem myself though I've always been a fan of Dragotta and I thought he was complimented well by the colorist. Now I don't feel as bad having the amount of copies I ordered since there will still be people that miss out. Store where I have my pull list said my handful of copies were all 9.8 or better. He is going to sub 2 copies for me that he believes are mint. Hopefully more image titles coming out this year use a similar type of card stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krighton Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) here's some guys review in the CBR forums It was okay. Not a whole lot was new from what I have already seen in western stories. I'm one to support creators over characters, but I don't find Hickman's Image work to be as good as his Marvel work. Since when has he read a western that deals with the Four Horseman of the Apocalypse.....and he had the gaul to poo poo manhattan projects Edited March 27, 2013 by krighton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wushugushu Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I've stopped reading most of CBRs reviews since most of the reviews are completely illogical. Lot of the recent reviews I've read in the last few months just made me feel as though some of those people didn't read anything other than a synopsis/preview.

Jimmy Linguini Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 being in Canada, I usually avoid those online stores because there shipping fees equal out to ebay. Sorry for throwing a wrench in your search! (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
