"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Someone was saying that

Me! I overheard a rumor and posted it here.

I've never been to Dark Carnival.

It's actually a great store. Smallish space with odd off rooms and an upstairs and packed to the ceiling with stock. Disorganized, but in a way I don't mind.

But it's inconveniently located if you don't have a car.

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

Me! I overheard a rumor and posted it here.

It was not you, but good try! It was someone at my comic book club.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Here's a nice obit: [link]

Basically, the original owner, Rory Root, passed away in 2008, and the store couldn't recover from that blow.

I was looking through old issues of Fantagraphics Amazing Hero’s and Comics Journals and found some nifty pieces of art from a few very talented fellows before they were stars….

"I've got a gun! I've got a mother-flippin' gun!" - Moss, The IT Crowd

My first day of Emerald City Comic Con can be summed up thus:

I spent the evening in a bar with Darick Robertson.

Let's see what day two will bring.

Whoa, lovely and unexpected Will Eisner tribute by Google.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Day 2 of ECCC.

Watched Adam Hughes draw. OMG, feel so unworthy.

Also, got some good contacts.

Also, 6ft tall transvestite Wonder Woman.

My feet! My eyes!

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

This week's Young Justice was okay, but the scene with Red Tornado was priceless.

And wow, these kids, aside from Robin, really don't care about their secret identities, do they?
