Now we’re getting somewhere. They dragged this prison thing out too long. I guess it was only 2 and a half months, but it was also 11 issues, 5 of them oversized….

The craziest part of this story is, as the sticker indicates, I didn’t get this concluding chapter as a kid. I have, in fact, never read it. Most of the time I…
