Wow, I've really got to commend BOOM! for the way they've handled Irredeemable trade releases. The first trade came out the same day as issue #5, and now the second trade comes out the same day as #9. I've often wanted to catch up to monthlies on series I follow in trade, but the gap makes it so difficult I usually stick with one or the other.
I'm suprised more publishers don't try this. Especially with titles that have great word of mouth like Irredeemable.
