You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

D won't go to the comic book store with me because he doesn't have any money. I said it's free comic book day but he just grumbled.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

My favorite of our free haul was Maintanence. Grabbed Wormwood as well and Rasl.

They were out of The Tick, wah!

I got Mouse Guard/Fraggle Rock, Aspen and Radical previews, and War of the Supermen.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Laga, I got a copy of The Tick if you would like it when I'm done.

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

Everyone was out of Atomic Robo and The Tick before I got there. I picked up Iron Man/Thor (nice), Irredeemable/Incorruptible (interesting, I'd heard about them), Green Hornet (totally fucking lame, only a few random pages from random comics), War of the Supermen (okay, signed by James Robinson, who is British and personable, what do you know), Fractured Fables (pretty amusing, signed by Derek McCulloch), DC Kids (adorable), and, because they had gotten it by mistake, Hulk and Power Pack (very enjoyable). I hit three different stores today.

I got Atomic Robo if you want it when I am done PC.

That would be great, DJ! I'm going to at least read my comic book store's copy today and maybe buy the first trade if they have it. I've only read a little of the series, but I know I'll enjoy it.

I will ask Jon to mail it tomorrow.

Well, I will if I can manage to get him to do it.
