A couple of years back, the digital comic book distributor Comixology had a special promotion, where a bundle of about 26 first issues was completely free for the day. I was lucky enough to notice the email from them before it was too late and got the books. Included was Archer & Armstrong #1 from the 2012 ongoing series. I'd never her of the original series, so that was my first experience with the eponymous characters. As far as I recall, it was a pretty enjoyable read, and I intended to pick up a trade at some point. And then, I never actually went and did that. So when I found out that Valiant was doing A&A: The Adventures of Archer and Armstrong, I opted to pick up the first issue as soon as it came out. About a year later, here's the last issue.
