Very enjoyable. Some nice art here, especially on "Adventures of Grant Butler." The Padlock Holmes story is delightfully nutty, though since both the hero and the villain have jutting chins and hooked noses, it's hard to tell them apart.

At 34 pages does anyone know what's missing from this book?
   By
I'm guessing it's the inside covers that are missing.
   By
Old questions never die... There's an examination of the work of Emile Mercier happening in the reading group, and a question was asked about if there were missing pages from this comic. As everyone probably knows, it is normal for comics to have pages are a multiple of 4. This one has 34, so there should be 36. Crashryan suggests it may have blank inside covers. Can't tell from page 2, but on page 33 you can see the heading of the article bleeding through, so that's probably not the case (or only for the inside front cover). Will check to see if there is an explanation or more pages.
