The collected edition looks pretty, but I wasn’t aware that there was enough of the story printed to justify soliciting an entire collection. I guess that their current strategy is to print just enough episodes of a story to whet the appetite, then shift the reader to the collections. Which seems like a weird approach if you want to retain readership in the magazine that’s at the center of your brand.
