No kidding. I like when a story compels me to pick up a book I normally don't follow closely (IE: Mojo Worldwide, for making me wanna pick up XMBlue, or the whole 'Newer Mutants' thing in Cable hitting me in the Blink/Exiles fan breadbox), but I do miss the days of stories being pretty self-contained and accessible without reading X number of issues of Y title.

Hell, it's part of the reason Gwenpool, Ms. Marvel, and New Avengers/USAvengers are nice reads these days, they stay mostly self-contained.

Every Walgreens in my immediate area seems to at least have two or three of her.

Haven't seen her in SoCal yet, but at this rate, I'm expecting her to pop up at any time...

One of the best figures of last year, in abundance and at a steal of a price? Hook up the board, son!
