Geek me out.
Hi all.
I'm going to be moving to Albuquerque in about 2 weeks, and while I'm sure y'all are sick of questions on the subject I don't think these two have come up (at least recently).
I'm something of a comics geek - I worked in a comics store a few years ago, and read a number of relatively eclectic titles that comics shops will often only order ahead of time for customers. Can anyone recommend a store (and possibly contact name?) that I could call ahead to, let them know what I'd like and set up a standing order? I'm primarily looking for somewhere that'll be happy to let me only pick up my order every month or two, know their stuff so they can let me know about new titles I may be interested in, and is also hopefully close to where I'll be staying (near the intersection of Juan Tabo Blvd NE and Eubank Blvd NE). Anyone have any good suggestions?
Secondly, I really ought to get back into roleplaying. Can anyone recommend a roleplaying group or community that meets on a semi-regular basis? While I'm not completely opposed to going to the University to find somewhere, I'd ideally like to find a collection of graduates, so I'm dealing with people of roughly my own age (late 20s). And, for the sake of my sanity, no Dungeons and Dragons?
Thanks.
