Most of their stock is GNs, anyway. And Desert Island Comics, in Williamsburg, is even more indie.
Gimme some milk.

Relatedly-ish, Noelle Stevenson doesn't go to comic book stores anymore.
Somewhat unfortunately, the best way to guarantee the success of her new comic, Lumberjanes, is to pre-order it through your local comic book store.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I've been to Bergen St Comics with Scola (*coughBRAGcough*), and if any place can get by just fine without Marvel/DC monthlies... yeah.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I would read "Adjective Avengers". IJS.

I can't believe how many Avengers titles there are. Has it always been like that? When did they become the new X-Men?
Oh hey can we talk about how great Ms. Marvel is? Because it is great.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Ms. Marvel is indeed great! Everything from the concern trolling to the dialog about costume choice totally worked for me.

I admit, when I got the first Hawkeye TPB, and there was the stuff with the dog, I stopped reading it, because it looked like the dog was going to die (because, face it, that's what ALWAYS HAPPENS), and I knew I couldn't handle that shit (I had just lost my job and gotten married, so I was a leeeeetle stressed out).
I eventually read it.

I don't have the source, but a friend who recommended the book to me says that Fraction has said that he's never killing the dog—and knowing the origin of Lucky, I completely believe him on that—and that Clint and Kate will never hook up.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Clint and Kate will never hook up.
Which is as it should be, forever and ever, amen.
