Hello Chums,
How was your Free Comic Book Day? Mine was great again this year. Free comics at three local stores. No fourth store like last year - Dragonfyre comics has sadly gone out of business. But once again free books, sales and costumed people. Cool.

20. That's a lot of free comics.
At 3 AM I got out of bed to do it all again. New World comics was having a 24 hour sale. From 4 to 5 AM (Sunday) the deals were real. When I arrived I was amazed by the amount of cars in the parking lot. The store was full of people. The turnout HUGE. The graphic novel selection looked noticeably thinner than when I was there at 10 AM. I picked up numerous books and comics at very steep discounts. Now that's a great end to Free Comic Book Day!
It's time to start reading.

How dare they kill off the Batman??? First Captain America now the freakin' Batman? All the major story arcs suck, I've scaled way back on books- I'm disgusted.
See you soon in Syracuse.
You know, I'm aware they've killed off Batman in current continuity. However, I can't really stand current DC continuity so I don't buy their books. Where's some Tim Sale or Darwyn Cooke Batman books (or even All Star Batman and Robin The Boy Wonder) when we need them? See you in two weeks.
