Freakangels Tp Vol 03

Volume Three of award-winning author Warren Ellis' ongoing web comic, FREAKANGELS, is here! This installment collects the entire third arc of the post-apocalyptic saga into 144 gorgeous, full-color pages. Twenty-three years ago, twelve strange children were born in England at exactly the same moment. Six years later, the world ended. Today, eleven strange 23-year-olds are living in and defending Whitechapel, maybe the last real settlement in flooded London. They've made a new friend, and together they successfully defended their home from raiders--but the post-apocalyptic drowned London that the eleven Freakangels survive in is never a safe place, and never surrounded by friends. In FREAKANGELS: VOLUME THREE, the FreakAngels begin to address how to build their community while a serial killer stalks in their midst. Everything almost comes crashing down around them as one of their own breaks their most valued rule. Ellis' ongoing story of a flooded London is beautifully illustrated in jaw-dropping detail by Paul Duffield, and every page is as much a work of art as it is a compelling and multi-layered story. This third collection is also available as a Hardcover edition with an all-new cover by series artist Paul Duffield that is limited to just 2000 copies, and a Dual Signed Hardcover edition, limited to only 1000 copies, signed by both Warren Ellis and Paul Duffield!

I absolutely LOVE the free weekly. The question is, am I a freeloading prick if I don't buy this?

For those of you who read the weekly and got the other two trades, how does it feel in one sitting as opposed to the weekly 6 pages?

There are two things that change drastically from the free online version. One is the art, there's a lot of difference between the small images posted online and the paper version just in terms of size.

The other is basically the problem with Ellis in all of his other books. It's very decompressed and it's not super satisfiying in the free weekly. The large chunk in the trades is much meatier thing.

Worth it. Aside from Anna Mercury it's the best thing Ellis is doing right now.

What is Anna Mercury all about? I can picture the tight suit and the GIANT red hair, but I don't know the story.
