"The First Death": now in the money-wasting hardcover edition!

[pith]

As if it weren't bad enough that LKH and Co. spread this story out over two comics when, with her overuse of narration, it barely needed one, now it's compiled in a hardcover. Yes, just like issues 1-6 of Guilty Pleasures, except at least with that collection, you got six comics, not two comics and a "character handbook".

(I think LKH is the one who needs the character handbook, not the readers, but hey, that's another post entirely.)

Anyway, for those interested in inflicted the pain upon yourselves or loved ones, enjoy. Because, in the grand tradition money-draining comic editions, there's not only the main cover (note the compensating-for-something size of her name on the cover) but also the obligatory variant cover.

I seriously wonder who's buying these anymore. Granted, I haven't done extensive comic shop research, but at the comic stores I go to, the Anita books are not flying off the shelves by any stretch of the imagination.

One foil to your logic, mon ami -- it's summer here in Australia. Burning stuff isn't exactly recommended given that it's bushfire season right now.

Y'know, a guy tries a little humor...

::sigh::

:D I did get it, but...well, I'm stewing down here. I think my humour's gone to Canada and is currently enjoying the ski conditions and hottubbing with snowbunnies. I'm insanely jealous.

You know, if it's doing all that, I think I'm jealous. We haven't had a proper snow around my neck of the woods for a looong time.
