So: Deadpool MAX ended with issue #12, cover-dated November 2011. Gsh, so long, Mister Deadpool Max, and with luck perhaps someday someone will bring back your comic book with a brand-new #1 issue...
...maybe, the very next month.
In the words of my Grampy Bull: what th' Sam Scratch is goin' on here?!? Sure, I know it's all the rage for comic books these days to end and start again with all-different brand-spankin'-new number ones, but when a November book is ended and a December book starts and there's no break in the storyline or characters why don't you just call that one #13, huh?
Why, that's ridiculous. Imagine if restarting a comic book every time a storyline finished had been the rule rather than the exception, huh? Go ahead...imagine it! You'd have this...
...followed by this!
...followed by this...
...followed by this...

Heh. Hit the nail on the head. I don't understand this whole numbering system, and I have NEVER liked fractions, so it just makes me sad.
Gotta give you props for bringing the Paul Simon in the title. "Hearts and Bones" indeed.
