GRENDEL without Wagner's art seems rather pointless, but we'll see.

I believe the proper term is "their." :-)  Modern Comics should
have shown more imagination, and had 3 separate 5 issue
miniseries, each issue of which stands on its own, and all 15 of
which combine to form one mighty epic.  Too bad.

To be followed by a Robotech series, where the original issues of
three different mini-series would be fed through a blender and
pasted back together into a single maxi-series.   (Yes, I know
there is a Robotech comic book - but you could have fooled me.):-)

Why not?  Get the Mutant junkies to try Cerebus, and add some
excitement to the tales of an earth-pig born.

Is it about the time of year for the annual team up poll again?
If so, I'm willing to collect all entries and post a summary.
