There's always trade paperbacks, right? And, if you want, I could write summaries or try to scan the best scenes in the books or something.

Speaking of the Cucu Cola guy...at first I thought it was odd that he was drawn bigger than Fat Cat in the splash page because he was just a one-shot villain and Fat Cat was their arch nemesis. But it makes sense if this particular issue is focused on Gadget (and the flashback implies that it is).
