Which circles back to my complaint about modern day comics. Why the hell would you label something as issue #1 if you need to know boatloads of continuity that happened prior to that issue?

There's no such thing anymore as being able to just pick up a single issue and enjoying it without knowing hundreds of issues worth of backstory and then having to commit to picking up the next several issues just to get the full story. I hate it. I want to be able to just grab a single issue, read it, and enjoy it a complete tale.
