Anyone else been reading this series? If so, what are your thoughts about there finally being some conflict in the book?

Well I've only read the first 2 issues, but honestly, I've been pretty disappointed with the book. I guess it's pretty much what I expected it to be, but I was kind of hoping for more meat to it. Is it worth making it to issue 4?

I'd say it is, but I also really enjoyed the first two. If you're interested in keeping on with the series, I'd say read until #4. That will probably determine whether or not you'll want to keep on with the series.

I like the series. Happiness or disappointment with this (or any series) has a lot to do with what you expect/want from a comic vs. what it delivers.
I read the stuff on the web first, thought it was charming, was something different from the other 160 comics I'm reading every month, and that's a GOOD thing.
That said, I've not read #4 yet, but I thoroughly enjoyed #1-3.

Cool. It should be right up my wheelhouse, but for some reason, it hasn't clicked for me yet.

i checked this out in the store when #1 came out, because i was genuinely interested. however, i read the entire issue in about 2 minutes while i was standing there, so i figured it wasn't worth the $4 for the issue and if it turned out to be really great i'd hear about it and could grab the trade.

yeah, they do read ridiculously fast, which kind of sucks at 4 bucks a pop.

I haven't read #4 yet, but I really liked the first 2, then liked #3 a little less mostly because it didn't seem to have as much of that happy/smilely soul as the first two.

Ummm....minor point, but all 4 issues of this series have been $2.99, NOT $3.99

And that is fine for you to have as an opinion. Better to say (accurately) "It's too fast a read for $2.99", than "it's too fast a read for $3.99".
Personally, it takes me about the same time to read Li'l Depressed Boy as it does to read an average issue of Avengers which is, in fact, priced at $3.99.

You might not dig the ending of #4 then.
