The first long story making up this volume - The Ti Girls - has some funny bits but is far too long for what is, essentially, an inside joke. But the second half of the volume - "The Love Bunglers" - is surely one of the crown jewels of the comics medium. Understated yet emotionally overwhelming. Just beautiful.
