    Driftwood: Well, I got about a foot and a half. Now, it says, uh, "The party of the second part shall be known in this contract as the party of the second part."
    Fiorello: Well, I don't know about that...
    Driftwood: Now what's the matter?
    Fiorello: I no like-a the second party, either.
    Driftwood: Well, you should've come to the first party. We didn't get home 'til around four in the morning... I was blind for three days!

    I'm choosing to lump this up with Alpha in that they haven't been given any decent chance to do or be anything (they were given a mini as sort of an AF-spin-off, then two [bad] cameos/guest spots in two [very badly written] AF series). I'm willing to give Claremont a chance with this one. What's he gonna do, make it worse?? :P

    ... now that I've seen the opening page, NOW I have some reservations: I mean "Honey Lemon" is bad enough, but "Wasabi No-Ginger" and "Fred"??

    Oi.

    BUT!! again, after reading the opening pages, the story seems strong enough (as long as Claremont doesn't drop the ball on page 6, so far so good).

    My problem with BH6 is that they have always been presented as if they should be in one of those early 60's Godzilla 'B'movies. They come across as laughable and a joke to be ridiculed. Their close association with AF prolly didn't help vol 2 AF and a lot of what was done with BH6 is reflected in AF vol 3.
