        yeah...there are 11 volumes in the series so far -- nm - Remlik Feb 19, 12:56 5
        
        I think he mainly is interested in that particular part of the series. So only a couple issues. -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 13:03 4
        
        sure. but to get the 'whole' story one must read the whole story -- nm - Remlik Feb 19, 13:19 2

      - okay, but what did the other girl do when the first mentioned girl take the other girl's supposed boy? -- nm - crash davis Feb 19, 12:05 5
        
        fakes a pregnancy and told the boy it was his and then after the second girl has her baby steals it and buries her under the gazebo in the back yard - decline Feb 19, 12:08 4
        
        I'm confused. Buries the baby or buries the second girl and raises the baby as her own? -- nm - crash davis Feb 19, 12:10 3
        
        buries the second girl - otherwise the whole nefarious plot would all fall apart. -- nm - decline Feb 19, 12:11 2
        
        Thanks. And going back to the boy, what does it do for his confidence in his own tech when it becomes clear that the Bat-condoms have failed? -- nm - crash davis Feb 19, 12:14 1

      - They all have the same sound. I'm not trying to be an asshole but there's very little difference between his songs. -- nm - Krusty Feb 19, 11:58 2
        
        I don't think you're being bad. I'm just having fun at your expense, just like I will when I get you a William Shatner album. -- nm - crash davis Feb 19, 12:04 1
