I feel bad for this book because it keeps coming out on BIG weeks. I'm assuming it still sells very well and doesn't really need the hype, but I also thought there'd be more chatter.

@ohcaroline I know it seems to get swallowed up by the big release weeks. I just get the feeling that this is the book Brubaker is putting the least effort in promoting buts its still so solidly written and with Rucka on its been great!
Posted by JMF on 07/23/08 at 09:02 AM@JMF & ohcaroline-- I think this book is so solid we just always assume every issue is gonna be awesome. This latest arc has been one of favorite's since Bru's first one in the prison.
Posted by Kimbo on 07/23/08 at 09:46 AMAnyone know how long this arc will be? I have been thinking about checking this out and was wondering when a good jumping on point would come along.
Posted by xebix on 07/23/08 at 10:19 AM@Kimbo It was dragging for a little while there, I thought, but the arc with Rucka has been more than solid.
Posted by ohcaroline on 07/23/08 at 10:20 AMMoving on from the whole Milla fiasco has really helped. This arc is great so far, and Lady Bullseye is up next I think
Posted by cutty on 07/23/08 at 10:27 AMWhy does everyone hate Milla so much?
Posted by JohnVFerrigno on 07/24/08 at 08:39 PMI love this issue... it feels like Daredevil: Matt and Friends... I love it when the supporting characters really come through like this
Posted by gat0rl1vebeatz on 07/24/08 at 11:04 PM@xebix- this is part 3 of 4.
Really great book, I havent heard a lot about it. Ben Donovan was a pretty bad ass.
Posted by Molotov on 07/24/08 at 11:19 PMMan, I am loving this arc! I'm not a huge DD fan, I jump on & off the title, but Brubaker, Rucka & Lark are absolutely killing this story. I would read this team writing anything, even Ant-Man ... (maybe).
Posted by WadeWilson on 07/25/08 at 04:10 AM@johnferrigno - i don't think its so much that she's a bad character, instead its that she turns matt into a bad one-note character

So no one wants to talk about this book im Surprised. I thought with the Buzz that the book seems to be finally picking up again it would be rife with conversation?
