*read as single issues* 3.5* I read some of these quite a long time ago so I don’t remember them that well but overall I‘d say I enjoyed these special issues. I especially liked the ones dealing with earlier versions of the pantheon. Of course I couldn’t get as invested in them as in the main series but they were always interesting and there were also some hints for what was going on in the larger story. So overall I would say it’s certainly worth a read.
