So, this is the fifth 'Kade' story I've read and it makes less sense every time. The second sample story was '100 Girls' which was well done and mildly interesting but nothing I'd get into. Finally, there was 'Clockwork Girl' which comes off as a mechanical Pinocchio/Frankenstein mash-up. Not so good. It seems like Arcana is perpetually on the verge of taking off with bunches of new books, but nothing has really broken out yet. Probably the most interesting thing of the entire book was the back cover. A pretty weak group shot of 60 some characters including Madman, Pro, Shi, Badger, Dawn, 10th Muse, ShadowHawk and Savage Dragon with the tag "War of the Independents - July 2008."
