Which is awesome. I loved the last volume so much and I ended up just falling for this character, so I got this one in paperback. The last volume might have had more humor, but this one felt more substantial: getting into the character more and playing with him. And also bringing back Apollo.
Part of the reason I didn't want to wait at the library for this book was that Apollo was coming back in the new series, and I wanted to start reading that immediately. I wanted to get the backstory, and after reading volume two and then the first two in the new series? I probably could have read the newest series first, but I'm glad I didn't: this sets up a lot of the little moments in the new series, and explains a lot that added to my enjoyment of Midnighter and Apollo.
It also turns out that I ship Midnighter and Apollo, so I'm glad I got to this. I was missing Apollo without even realizing it, truth be told.
Just a beautiful, meaningful look at this character. I love it so much!
