"But boy, I'd sure like to have them all!

"Ha! Of course I still trust you. My opinion was biased fromt the start, as I explained, and I'm just jealous everyone else had a better time at the party than I did. I'll add the book above to my Amazon to-buy list. (Along with Danger Street, which…"

"I finally read this, and was a bit disappointed. Mainly because the bar had been set so high here.
That was my fault. :(
I still recommend it to anyone else (who likes super-hero comics), though, keeping in mind Cap's caveat above.
