But my experience is different from yours; I picked up the series about halfway through, loved the stretch from Li Sung to Assante, and was left cold by Grendel Prime.

I didn't discover Grendel until Tales had finished, and embarked on a very similar collecting quest to yours, eventually snagging pretty much everything, including the original Comico issues. There might still be a Tales miniseries or two I've not read though.Nick Jones (Louis XIV, the Sun King)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17716508525331235684noreply@blogger.com
