Newbury is a chain now (I don't know if it always was), so there are ones within driving distance (and convenient parking) -- ones that don't involve navigating the streets of Cambridge (and Somerville and/or Arlington, depending on my route). I like my local indy shop. Ben gets Yu-Gi-Oh and sports cards there, and I bought Fray there. They have an enormous collection of old stuff, too.
I got stupid. The money was too good.

Despite the name, the amount of comics they have may vary by location. I'd expect the in Boston/Cambridge stores to have the Buffy comic, but I'm not so sure about further out of the Hub; they've been more of a music store (and lately general pop-culture geegaws) for yoinks now.

The Dark Horse website had a store locator that included both non-Newbury shops, and Newbury shops in the suburbs.

Really? He looks pretty healthy to me. Personally, I think Aline\'s a lot more scary looking....

But Aline has always looked that way. Robert's aged a lot since the documentary.

Fair point. Though he\'d probably look younger without the beard.
