EDIT: This is very thought-provoking. I love it.
EDIT the 2nd: One Manga.com, you are a fine piece of work sometimes. I wanna see Nami wake up and kick Absalom's arse in the latest chapter, and you won't even show the pages! Hm...I'll have to try again, later.
(And finally; after literally saying "Nami, wake up!" at the pc screen these few weeks, it happens! Though from what I hear, Absalom seems to disappoint me more by not being a very formidable opponent in combat. Maybe he doesn't hit girls...I dunno. *waits to finally read 471*)

Sis has now gone to London, to start her phD in developmental Biology for 3 years. She won't get many days off, but she's planning to come for Eid ul-Fitr in October. *hopes so*
I think that so far I'm not as "badly affected" by her departure, as I was a few years ago. Instead of moping around the house, I went to Birmingham town today for Forbidden Planet. I got Persepolis 2 (well, I mistakingly thought it was the FIRST one, but still what a find!) and three more of the Transformers classic comics as graphic novel collections. FP is amazing with the collected paper and hardbacks - because they came out about a year before the movie, they're available at discount prices that are CHEAP, and if you pick up three with a blue sticker you get the third one free!
I picked up two that were at 2.99 each, and a third with the blue sticker that would've been 4.99 had I not brought the other two down to the checkout counter. How sweet is that? :D (One was from the point in the Marvel comics when Budiansky was writing, and the other two are from when Furman took over. They're interesting, but did the penciller he worked with have to give them PUPILS? It's...weird.)
Something that I saw, today: outside of Tesco's, some guy was preaching to people that 'Death is unnatural' and a result of sinning.
"Rocks fall! Everybody dies!"
