For those who don’t know what The Guild is, I would invite you to check it out at http://www.watchtheguild.com/. It’s a hilariously funny web series. After 4 seasons of the show, we learn about some of the backstory with this trade.

Felicia Day is a wonderful writer, and has a firm grip on what’s funny. I watch and read the series and I see parts of myself in the people that make up The Guild. If there was a member who obsessively collected comic books, I would see a reflection.

The story of how Codex/Cyd Sherman develops is well worth the read. The art isn’t the best, but it works well for this trade. Combined you have a great trade that is well worth adding to your collection. If you’re a gamer, I hope you see the humor in it as I do. If you don’t see it, you’re taking yourself too seriously.

Add this trade to your collection. It’s an odd size, but worth the add and the read.
