I'm actually planning to reread the four Essentials in a couple of months and see how they hold up. I think Volume 3 has most of the Gerber stuff and is the best of the set.G.G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14139897093825738777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428368519992378050.post-64283271133944806522010-04-11T09:39:50.319-04:002010-04-11T09:39:50.319-04:00Well, I've just bought this...hoping for a bit...Well, I've just bought this...hoping for a bit of Englehart magic. At the very least I look forward to early Perez; the end of a writer's run IS rarely the time to catch them. But so many swore by the Stainless One, I couldn't stay away, and I remembered him fondly as well (I was busy crying and sleeping when these came out, and hope I won't feel like doing the same when I'm done).<br /><br />What i want to know is: do you have your take on Gerber's DEFENDERS on this blog? I haven't run across it and it's time to Sleep. I love that run to pieces. Those characters helped me work out my novel's plot, when I threw them into the mix (you can find it on my own blog, plug), complete with illustrations.<br /><br /> Also...I may have figured out that you, like me, are from Georgia (see Tebow, Martinez, best of 2009).Cecilhttp://ceaseill.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428368519992378050.post-66366473064414945222010-03-25T09:14:59.076-04:002010-03-25T09:14:59.076-04:00Ah, this pains me.
