Great to see that the Giant Editions in three of the Big Four series are back, the first since 2010.

This month (Feb) sees Longarm and the Ambush at Holy Defiance come out (my copy arrived a couple of days ago and I'm currently halfway through it).

March sees the release of Slocum and the Glitter Girls at Gravel Gulch.

April is when the 16th Gunsmith Giant comes out: The Further Adventures of James Butler Hickok.

Just need Signet to start putting out Trailsman Giants now.

Now we're hoping they'll decide the same thing for 2014.

Was the decision made to do them again due to an increase in western sales?

I'll give it a day in court.

And I believe the upswing is in Westerns in general, and not specifically Gunsmiths, or adult westerns.
