Is it wrong that, on the basis of the covers, part of me wishes GG was drawing this?

Looks like, whatever the continuity Megs is dumb enough to bring SS back to life.

That cover is so 80's! Man, they are really doing an excellent job with this I think.

All that time alone on Earth, Megs obviously got bored...oh god this is quickly heading into slashfic territory. But they are just like Kirk and Spock, those two.

I must be the Yaya this time. I'm not quite won over. Simon's story is decent and moves along at a good clip, but it feels somewhat of a retread. Andy's art... man, I just am not feeling it. He does have a good sense of space. Things are less crowded than in MTMTE and RID. But the dynamics, the sense of scale, the enthusiasm of his earlier work... totally missing. It might as well be Manny Galan come back for the way it's affecting me.

Jeez, the one comic I thought I wanted more than any other in the world. Call me Judas...

I'd like to go talk to 12 year old me, despondent after the cancellation of his favorite comic book... and tell him that, 20+ years later, everything would be all right.

The story was great. Loved the revelation at the end, altho' it seemed at bit almost TOO high-stakes-y, if that makes sense. In other words, it was a situation that would have never come up in the original series, for all sorts of reasons. But that's okay. PLus- BERKO~!

The art varied from great to a little wonky, particularly in the proportions and perspective dep't. Glad Baskers is along for the ride. Understandable- Wildman is trying to capture a style he used 20 years ago.

Overall- I had high expectations, and this met them, against the odds.

One more time- until the End of the Road.

But who's that to the right of Ratchet? That supposed to be Rung I guess?
