Yeah, I totally get what you mean. I do think you should try giving HSBC a chance in that case. Even if you don't end up liking it, it's good to form your own opinion rather than letting others tell you how to feel about it. And if you wind up disliking it, there are plenty of other fan-continuations of the comic for you to sink your teeth into, like Homeslice, Burning Down the House, and Act 8 (or was it Act Omega?). Hopefully you find something that you enjoy.
