  Huh. You're right. I didn't even realize that. Those pages
_are_ out of order in the collected version. Pages 4 and 5 are
apparently switched in the graphic novel. Man, I didn't even catch
that. Good eyes there! The Spotlight book has them in the correct
order, I believe.

  Okay, your copy is definitely messed up. The "Lori" story
appeared in one of the Genus issues, but I can't recall which one
(and the few issues of Genus I have left are in storage). I also
think the "Party Crashers" story was not in one of the previous
Spotlight books, either.
