Nailbiter Vol. 2: Bloody Hands by Joshua Williamson
3.0
I...think they could've pulled this off, but it should've been a little later in the series.
This is like the "22 Short Stories About Springfield" episode where we get little vignettes that are loosely connected to our main storyline.
Which is do-able, but I think it felt like a misstep to have it so early in the story, before we really know the characters, before we have a good grasp on the basics here.
Also, Bendis pulls a John Byrne in Trial of Galactus, showing up and riding a bike around town to do research for a comic. Which was a little "Dafuq!?"
This feels like something you do in issue #245 when you're like, "Um...what if someone was writing a comic IN the comic?"
Bump in the Nailbiter road.
