That's pretty sucky for the actual artists, that Urru's name is on there. He did nothing for these issues did he?

I forgot 2 take a pic but there names are on the back cover... better than nothing I guess Wait, so Runge and Mooney are on the back cover? I'm pretty sure that's what he said. Thanks for the pics Thorn! It looks great, very happy that cover was chosen, but I'm also upset Runge and Mooney's names aren't on the front.

Urgh. My comic book shop only had one copy of this and it was in bad condition. I traipsed around every bookshop in town looking for another version before eventually going back to the first shop and settling for the crappy one. How disappointing. Also, am I the only one who's copy is slightly bigger/mishapen than the other HCs? It doesn sit very well next to them. *sigh* [/rant] Content-wise though, the Betta George diary was hilarious. I especially liked his annoyance at not being considered canon. Only skimmed through the Q&A, but it looks good too. Recognised a few names.

Pat your question is posted so is Enisys' and Ethan's if it is the same Ethan from Slayalive their are a lot of Ethans.... The other artists names are added in the descriptive bit at the back tellling you about the book... "Experience all the action, drama, deception and demonic humour you've come to expect from (Spike: Shadow Puppets) Brian Lynch this time joined with artists Nick Runge, Stephen Mooney and David Messina".So their names are on it just not on the front for some reason. Loved the Q&A nice extras too. Was showing it to a guy at work who hasn't been reading ATF, he was quite inmpressed with what he saw, so hopefully he'll buy the Trades and give them a read. Good job Brian, thanks!

Arg too long to wait. Mine's not even in the post yet. Sucks to hear about bad condition. I got a badly misprinted one last time, and the replacement had a buggered top right corner. Hope it doesn't repeat itself.
Cheers for the pics though Thorn. Looks good.

I just bought it for £13.91 at amazon.co.uk(including shipping). I think I might just dump ebay for amazon. Just a quicky now and then, but I've switched loyalty (the HCs are more expensive on ebay. That picky slut).

Well i got mine today and was well pi$$ed off with it. I won the concept cover for #11 (the chess idea) and every cover except mine was there instead they had mooney's 'A' cover in black and white, What a let down I want who ever is responsible to be given 'evils'

Wow, that's odd... You should say that over at the IDW board so they can include it in the next hardcover.

I love this book *hugs*
I really like Runge's work too tbh. He might actually be my favourite artist of the run.
That chessboard cover needs to be in HC #4! It was a great cover! There should be plenty of room in the next book cause there's no fan voted covers left for 13-17.

If they don't start adding in the missing cover in future reprints of HC #3, they should definitely have it be the first cover in the cover gallery for the final HC.

Personally, I find Runge's work in these issues to be not only the worst art of any Buffyverse comic, but some of the worst comic book art I've ever seen in my life. I'd really like to know what people see in it, because I certainly don't.
