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.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

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.
