We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Attention: Anyone going into a relatively well-stocked comic shop this week--can you please check and see if they have a copy of Buckaroo Banzai: The Prequel Issue #1? I have #2 on order but my guy couldn't get #1 for me.

Lesson learned: Read the Previews a little more thoroughly so I don't miss stuff like this.

If anyone can get me a copy, I will reimburse you for the comic and postage.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Oh, hey, Top Shelf is having a $3 graphic novel sale (and some other titles that aren't $3 but are still nicely discounted: [link]

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

My store didn't have it, sorry.

Cash, I'm going to my store today, so I'll check to see if your book is there. But I won't be able to report back until the evening.

Oh man, this is great. Batman (first name: Goddamn) in the Sims.

Batman wanted a robot station. I foresee a mechanical Robin in the near future. Batman fears using a public toilet. This might also be canon.

If you keep reading later entries there's more mayhem as Batman tries to reach his goal of becoming a ballet dancer. And buys cake from Lex Luthor.
