Did anybody else get this? It only cost me a couple of dollars with my discount, so I picked it up. It has Frank Miller's script for the issue, and reprints the entire issue in Jim Lee's pencilled art, without inks or color. I was hoping it would be only the pencilled art, but the text is there, too. There's a new cover by Frank Miller, depicting Batman punching the hell out of a cop. Bet you never saw that coming, eh? It's a decent buy at the price I paid for it, but honestly, I don't recommend it at full price unless you're a hardcore fan of the series, or one of its creators. Jim Lee fans will probably find it worth their money just to see his art showcased in this way, for instance.

I didn't even know about this, thanks for the heads up. I don't know if I'd actually buy it, but it would be nice to at least take a glance at.

The comic selection has been dismal lately...I'm not sure why, but no place seems to be updating their titles. I might swing by tonight to see if there's anything new, though.

HERE is the description from the DC website that lists the special features. You do know that there is a panel on the left hand side of the site that lists the weeks comics relating to Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman? It at the latest gets updated on Wednesday morning, usually Tuesday morning.

I don't suppose you could scan in the cover and email it to me so I can change the webpage, DF? I personally don't really plan on picking this up anytime soon.
