22 page comics? why not?[] Reply:March 13th, 2007 at 6:52 amStocking them is a MAJOR prboelm. Also, they need to be boarded and bagged to ensure collectibility . And why would anyone want 22 page comics if the same storyline gets collected into complete trades?[] Reply:March 14th, 2007 at 10:08 amBut it's NICE to have 22-pagers. Feels original. It's also MORE LIVE. I don't have to wait 6 months for a TPB if I can get a 22-pager every fortnight or month. I can read the same storyline in scans too, no?TPBs are for philistines. []
