Love the series sad that it will only have 60 issues in all. And I enjoyed this issue.

Well, you could be sad that it only has 60 issues, or happy that that's what they planned for and it will end before it goes on too long and becomes boring, repetitive, jumps the shark, etc...

I for one am looking forward to the rest of the issues, and then looking forward to whatever they do next. (in an interview they said they plan to stick together as a writing/drawing team)

I jumped onto this series late--was the THIN-EX stuff established in earlier story arcs, or is this a bunch of new exposition?

[wiski]

I believe that's new for this issue, but it ties into stuff from earlier, namely The Church of the Immaculate Ova.

This book just continues to impress. I can't help but wait each week for the new issue.

loved this issue. And my cat has now appeared twice in the letters column! Last month they switched names with another cat and I guess that owner must have mentioned it to them (or maybe they caught the error themselves). I didn't say anything, figuring it was cool enough his pic was in the comic. But then this month they did a correction and reprinted the pics with the right names. So Rory is one of my very favorite comic books TWICE!

I am glad this has been a 60-issue run planned from the start. It makes the book feel quite purposeful and that everything has meaning. Definitely feels like we're starting to get some things tied together and I am so excited to see how this story goes. Plus we know we have a couple more Poyo secret mission books to look forward to, which are always SUPER entertaining.

At this point I will purchase any Layman/Guillory book without question. It's a team that is just killing it. The writing and the art are SO very complimentary.

And I know it sounds absurd, but I would LOVE to see Guillory guest art on Detective - maybe some trippy Mad Hatter arc. I know it is a crazy thought - but sometimes I love me some crazy...
