the whole thing and not just issue 4.

Hey, don't give short shrift to issue 4; it's the 4th of all issues.

This is THE Batman Noir story and the best writing about Jim Gordon, in my hollow opinion.

..and talking of the unrated media of comics, my latest purchase. Even my partner loves these stories.

Now I get to dig into all the New #1s that I did not pick up thanks to this sweet Xmas gift.

Young adult fantasy novel-- good.

Takes place in one of my favorite places-- Forest Park, Portland, OR-- very good

Written by the most literate songwriters of recent years-- Colin Meloy of the Decemberists-- great

Added bonus-- illustrated by Colin's wife, Carson Ellis, including local architecture.

This is a great win-win.  I'm about 60 pages in and I love it.  I just have to fight off everyone else in the house who wants to read it.
