Customer Reviews

Ms. Boylan is right, but you can get the 2nd edition free

From Richard Nash, publisher: "Anyone who buys the first printing can tear out any page from p.111 to p.117 (where the problems are clearest), mail it to Soft Skull Press, 71 Bond St. Brooklyn NY 11217 attn. Scheherazade [don't forget the attn to line!] and we will mail you a copy of the second printing gratis." The five stars is for the material irrespective of the printing. A lot of the controversy can currently be found on the online message board of The Comics Journal.
