Starting with Claremont, then talking to DAK, I notice how writers love to work with the same characters repeatedly across years of titles, to create a sub-continuity. It would've been elegant as a plan, but it also makes a lot of sense, doesn't it, to tap these familiar elements when writing at deadline speed!

I wanted to stop by and tell you how grateful I am to read such creative writing and look at such dazzling, innovative artwork (Liam Sharp). As far as this Man-Thing collector is concerned, you guys hit a home run with that series.
