Yea, it was the MK version of Frank. The was a fun Omnibus was a fun read; though clearly not as dark and as gritty as his MAX run; it still contained enough death and black humor to make it enjoyable.

There might be. I'd have to check. I haven't read Runaways in over a year.

That kind of annoyed me when I brought the Omnibus. It contained the "Welcome Back Frank" story, which I already had. Aw well. No biggie I suppose.

Do you purposely arrange your books from right to left? All the numbers seem backwards to me. ^_^

Yep, all my books are arranged right to left. The American/western format is of arrangement (numbering and writing) is left to right. Eastern countries numbering systems runs right to left, which is what I follow at home.

My company only provides healthcare to executives and senior employees. A senior employee is anyone who has been with the company for 5 years or more. After the layoffs and salary reductions a few weeks ago, my company's bd. of directors decided to expand health coverage to all current employees in an attempt to appease the angry masses.

Obviously the decisions to reduce salaries, offer coverage and lay off people have been months in the making as, it takes a lot of time to revamp a company's healthcare policies and the offer of expanded healthcare was made on the heels of the reductions.

But it's so awesome I've got coverage.

Now I can get that rash looked at! :)

And this interests me a great deal. I'd like to know what else you have tucked away in your shelves. I mourn that we'll never have reviews of these graphic novels and tpbs. :(
