    Oh wow, I expected this to be way bigger and possibly uncomfortable to hold. I'm definitely upgrading to this. Rodríguez' art style gives a visual reinforcement to the story being about kids, with adults as the secondary characters. That was something that was lost in the adaptation, I watched an interview with the showrunners and they talked about wanting to change the direction of some adult characters which made me think they didn't understand which made the comic unique.

    Hi! I dunno if you'll ever read this comment, but in case you do, may you tell me which version would you suggest to buy between the compendium (showcased in this video) and the slipcase (paperback volumes, not hardcover ones)? They cost the same in my country, but I'm scared the compendium might be waaaaay too delicate or too hard to handle. Also, is there a big difference in the pictures sizes or the frame around them (in the compendium) shrink them down to a similar size of the paperbacks? Hope you gonna answer, thanks in advice ✌️

    I own all 3 Master editions and I liked the series overall because it is unique and it has great artwork, but the characters decision making seriously holds it back. Its one thing when a character is supposed to be an idiot, but the majority of the character kept making dumb decisions all the way to the end. If the characters didn't keep making dumb decisions, the writer would have to get more creative with the story, but those constant stupid decisions makes this series a 6/10 instead of 9+/10.
