Deal No. 1: Someone explain to me why a comic retailer would hand out free issues of Invincible Iron Man to get people interested when they don't carry Invincible Iron Man?
And as if to taunt me the news stands have a translated TPB of the exact arc I've become interested in to two thirds of the price I would have to pay for it at the comic retailer (if they stocked it). Only problem is that I have absolutely no desire to read them in Norwegian. Keep Jernmannen or whatever he's called out of my sight.
Deal No. 2: Why oh why does the library only have the first season of the Onedin Line? I can't stop here, the clipper Pampero has just gone down outside Cape Horne and Onedin's invested in Frazer's steamboat and Callon's trying to stop him and aaargh.
And why doesn't the internet pirates interest themselves in a seventies TV series about a crabby Liverpudlian owner of a shipline (with a suspiciously Yorkshire-sounding accent)?
If you can't tell, I've really been searching for a new obsession after Star Trek.
