| Read this yesterday, after having finished the scan. Overall a good, enclosed story. You don't get the imperession of wasted potential as with #32. Though it wouldn't be a very outstanding issue, were it not for - Spoiler:

the Raider dying at the end. This really surprised me. Sure, they don't show him die and in #34 he is referenced as "vanished", but if you think about it, he even leaves behind a son who'll now be an orphan. It seems pretty extreme for a Disney comic, especially after portraiting him much more likeable than your commonplace villain.

| Sure, it was all just to set up #34 (which I consider to be an even better issue), but... - Spoiler:

Dammit does this series pull on my strings I even did like the way Kronin dies. Yeah, keep begging, you ass. You have it coming for replacing Raider in Pikappa...
So yeah. |

| Well, a really good one, for me. Really well done and surprising. But... I don't know if everyone here (except italians, obviously) have already read the issue after this ("Nothing Personal"), but if you didn't, well, it's a very surprising issue too. Maybe more than this one. At least, those two issues are two of my favorites. |

| Nothing Personal almost rivals Fragments of Autumn in being my most favorite issue. - Spoiler:

And it was also the first time I got introduced to Raider. I'm serious, that issue was the first one I read that had Raider in it.
Just like how I was first introduced to Xadhoom in Metamorphosis... It was also the first issue I ever read, so those half-evronians were the first evronians i was introduced to.
... I really got introduced to this series the wrong way.

I got introduced to PK with the last issue of the second serie. And I've read the third then. And I DIDN'T know that. You're not the only one who got introduced to this series the wrong way.

| I just read this, you can find my comment in another thread. I'll just say that Raider was goddamn awesome in this issue, he jumped a few steps up in my list of favourite PKNA characters. |
