BONUS REVIEW by John 'Doc' Schaefer

Again, DC suckers me into coughing up a whopping $7.99 to read a new version of a classic title. But unlike the last Vertigo one-shot revisit, this time I don't even get a short story starring a classic hero who previously appeared in the older title. That is the official way of saying that I get no Space Cabby, no Knights of the Galaxy, No Interplanetary Insurance Inc, no Adam Strange! What I do get is 9 short stories that are part science fiction, part Twilight Zone pathos. And while entertaining, there was no real bang for my bucks. And since my bucks here are almost bordering on double digits, I expect more and with names like Kaluta, Baker, and Allred involved I should be getting it.
