"THE BIG GUY AND RUSTY THE BOY ROBOT:
When I was buying Storyteller in 1996-97, I also bought the slipcase to keep them in. As we all know, BWS brought the experiment to a premature close with the ninth issue, leaving some room in the box. As I was…"

"Paradoxman, as the science fiction portion of Storyteller, is the most memorable one for me. Unfortunate that it has never been collected. BWS certainly had his troubles with publishers over the years."
"PARADOXMAN:
It was very frustrating to read of BWS's difficulties with "OP" (Storyteller's "original publisher") in the Freebooter and Young Gods collections. The Young Gods one was almost not published because BWS could no longer find his creative…"

"YOUNG GODS & FRIENDS:
I remembered the Storyteller "going away party," but I had completely forgotten BWS's explanation for how these diverse characters could co-exist in the same "universe.""

Adastra in Africa in turn put me in the mood to read Freebooters (and I'll bet you can guess what's up next)."

Wow, what a conculsion! I had no idea how Kirkman and Finch were going to wrap this up, but I couldn't be more satisfied.

They're good fun. I think I'm scratching the itch I had as a kid when I couldn't afford those big lumps of colourful plastic that looked so cool in the ads.
Actually I'm downloading them as I just know I'm going to visit that site some day and see that they've been taken down...
If you happen to find out the creative credits for the different episodes and their publishing dates I'd be grateful for the info. I couldn't find them anywhere.
Here's a birthday present for you.
