A long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away... No. Wait. That's Star Wars. You know, I really hate doing this. This solicitation stuff? Hate it. I mean, it's a collection of previously published stuff. Trencher. The repo guy from beyond. Ring any bells? No? Then maybe you should consider buying this, because God forbid, you ever land on Jeopardy and Trencher comes up as a Final Jeopardy answer and you passed on the Trencher collection because they were reprinting that X-Men thing where they kill Wolverine... again... and you wind up looking like a dork on live TV and... Is solicitation copy supposed to run this long? The Boom Studios Editors interrupt Mr. Giffen's rambling to explain that this trade collects Keith Giffen's memorable run on Trencher issues #1-4 originally published by Image Comics. It's 100% pure bastich, baby!
