BONUS REVIEW by "Doc" Schaefer
While I'm not sure if this qualifies as a Secret Files edition, most of the stories here are creative and interesting. But by far, it is the Batman/Detective Chimp story that steals the show. It also shows that Tom Taylor know how to write a good chimp story. It also proves how this generation really needs a Brave and the Bold title! My only real complaint with the stories here is that most of them end and feel incomplete. I kept thinking that two pages got stuck together but I was constantly proven wrong. It is worth the price of admission however. I give it 7 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
