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

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.

Holy mother of the gods and all their half-human spawn, that variant is Rob Liefeld terrible. She's supposed to be pointing her gun between her arm and her ribcage, backwards!? What the shit is this? Reservoir Dogs!? And why for the love of hell is Edward smiling?

Because he's thinking about how he's gonna kill the comic book artists.
