Best things about this cover:
  • You must be this tall to ride Manning Lee Stokes.
  • Cigarette holders—I don't really get them, but as visual affectations go, I like them a lot.
  • I actually really love the arc of the title font.
  • There is a reason the show was not called "Mission: Difficult."

Best things about this back cover:
  • "Armed with a gut-searing greed"? Uh ... Clean-up on aisle Metaphor!
  • The Iron Buddha would be a cool wrestling name.
  • The Bloody Cache would not.

Yi Sun-Sin, of course, had Oo working in Seoul, and soon he had known about the American who was coming to find a million buried dollars. And they started making plans. The fact that Oo had been a former houseboy of mine made his chances good.

I'm trying to decide what my favorite part of this passage is: "Oo," "houseboy," or "of course."
