She was in the story because she was the link to Bloodshot's past and the reason all the assassins came to town when Bloodshot did. Plot device, pure and simple. :)

#46 was written [by Simon Fuhrman], pencilled, inked, colored and lettered (and stored as an inventory story). Mark Moretti re-scripted it over the original art, so--yes--it DID stand alone. Issues 46-48 were inventory stories brought out of storage when they knew it was time to close shop.

For a side-by side comparison of the orginal v. published #46, you can go here.

we seem to have found a topic ant'ny enjoys!!!

that is really cool! i never realized you were quite the bloodshot aficionado-i thought he was merely your favorite...

i'm planning on reading (or re-reading) all the bloodshots...i'm still missing #32 though-i think...

so once jillian and he became an "item" did gilad ever enter the picture-ii'm just thinking back to ew 1 and 3 i think...he seemed to treat her like a little sister, and cared a great deal for her.

I don't remember Gilad in any Bloodshot book after Birthquake...The two went from frequent appearences in each others titles to none...but EW went WAYYYY downhill in the later issues anyway... :x
Why waste time learning, when ignorance is instantaneous?

After all the plugs, have you STILL not gone to my Bloodshot website? Pack a lunch. You might be there a while.

The last time Gil was almost around was in the LAST STAND special. I wrote a FanFic tale about the Gil/Jill/Bloodshot triangle, once...
