Explain, Chux. Are you still writing these every year hoping for that scholarship????

No, but Mrs A is in charge of administering.

Ahhh. Interesting. Heat is to Miami as _____________ is to Chicago.








Apparently they had to ditch that question because so many kids were answering Bulls!!!!!

Tim Sale was at my FCBD, signing stuff for a small fee that went into the Heroes Initiative coffers. There was too long a line, so i didn't hang out. Also, I overheard people saying "Who's Tim Sale? I dunno, some comic guy..." and it makes me want to laugh.

Those were the Liefeld fans. I have lots of stuff I'd like to have Tim Sale sign - his Batman stuff is some of my favorite comic art ever.

Heres what I got today

Amazing Spidey
Mighty Avengers
Avengers/Invaders
Dark Tower
Foolkiller
Invincible Iron Man
Iron Man:Viva Las Vegas
Secret Invasion
X-Factor: Quick and the Dead
Young X-Men

Star Wars Legacy #23 - Actually not a bad issue...for Legacy (which means its still not that good).
The Boys #18 - The end of another good story, with many disturbing things.
Secret Invasion #2 - An entire issue of confusion for the characters.

And some more leftover FCBDs: Love & Capes, Marvel's Best-Selling Authors, Imaginary, Devil Claw, and Gumby (yes, Gumby).

Stupid fucking Secret Invasion 2 was sold out today, so I'll have to wait.

I did get Mighty Avengers, Spidey, New Iron Man 1, the Tbolts one-shot, the final issue of the Logan mini and the Thor one-shot from last week.

Went and got some other comics at a store out of town: Avengers/Invaders 1 (piece of shit), Punisher 54 and Secret Invasion 2 (a bit of a letdown).

got the last two weeks worth of books:

DAREDEVIL BLOOD OF THE TARANTULA
IMMORTAL IRON FIST #14

INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #1
IRON MAN VIVA LAS VEGAS #1
MIGHTY AVENGERS #13 SI
SECRET INVASION #2
ABE SAPIEN THE DROWNING #4

haven't read them all, but i'm of a mind to agree with the assessment of avengers/invaders, though i heartily disagree with your opinion of secret invasion #2 - i thought that last page was freakin' awesome with the
