I started with New Kid first, which was actually quite a good move for me, I later realized. It was of general theme, er, or 'light'. Humorous too. I set it apart from the other stories because of its teenage theme. The Others are just so mature-- Deep, angsty, and philosophical.
I liked the other stories though (specifically the Sci-fis), much more than New Kid. Just for the simple fact that they made me *Think*. And have a lot of Action too (not those kind of action! Hehehe). Mysterious and dark, just the way I like it.
Read New kid first as an introduction to Com's writing, lest you be shocked by GFD and Savage Moon. Magic man is good too.
