Such a fun listen. Especially over the frustration of no 11/12 on the app. Classic DC digital!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read this one but do love the explosion of Sci-Fi in this era of early Baxter/New Format DC. They're all in the cheap bins if you look long enough. Spanner's Galaxy, Sun Devils, TailGunner Jo, Camelot 3000 (why is this in the cheap bins!!!!), or my fave Slash Maraud. Interesting concept to do this in 3 issue chunks. I wonder if sales were good they would continue it in 3 issue chunks.
Yes, in retrospect this was a very interesting experiment.
DeleteI remember Slash Maraud! Or maybe I just remember the house ads.
