Lord Karnage is perhaps my favorite book in the Classic Game Room-verse, and now it's available for everyone to buy on Amazon for those who missed the Kickstarter. Is this edition better? It depends. It includes an exclusive 1.5 bonus story. It's funny, but short (10 pages or so) and not vital to the continuity of anything (if there is a continuity in this universe). Also it includes Lord Karnage Deconstruction in printed form, which is like a commentary track of the rough sketches of the book. This was included digitally for Kickstarter backers, but it's nice to see it in printed form.
Conclusion: If you already own the Kickstarter hardcover book, there's not that much to get here. The paper quality on the KS book is much better (I hate the paper he uses on his Amazon books). The KS book was horizontal and this is vertical, so when he uses the same comic strips, most of the pages have unused space. But if you don't have the KS book, definitely get this as it's a third of the price (20 compared to 60 bucks). And the KS book is not available anymore.

It's hard to make reviews of books without spoilng them. All you can really do is show your enthusiasm. Although I heard there has been studies that most things can still be enjoyable after spoilers. I wonder how real that is. I appreciate you posting your enthusiasm for CGR stuff. It is gratifying for all of us fans.
