“Jaime and Gilbert said that the decision to relaunch the series as a trade paperback annual is based on where Love and Rockets sells best — general bookstores. Indie comics have a higher profile than ever before in bookstores, but mainstream superhero fare is still the bread and butter for most comic book stores, since [...]

Here is my second disc…the ‘B’ side… The gaps are soundbites from movies/TV. 2.I Want a Warning-Idlewild I just wanted another action packed beginning. 3.Light To Follow-Polyphonic Spree I like to think of these guys as a more melodic and mainstream Danielson.
