Amal: Hi. Are you guys planning on getting in the 30 Days of Night/X-Files crossover?
Comic Book Guy (who was in fact reasonably cute, skinny, and nonwhite, so fuck you, Simpsons): Actually, we have it already.
Amal: :D!!!!!!!!!!!!

Me too! Maybe I will save it for my birthday. That's actually a good idea, maybe...

[amalnahurriyeh]

I think this may be the first comic book I've bought too? I mean, I have a copy of Watchmen that I got at a flea market but...that doesn't count. In fact, this is the first comic I've read in *comic* form, not waiting until it's pleasantly bound and book-like.

*uses Scooly icon b/c it's the closest thing I have to a comics icon...*

Woot!

Also, that is the best cover. For sure.

It's a beautiful cover. The other one is OK, but, well, I want My Heroes staring out at me from the lovely plastic sheeting I've placed it in, you know?

I've been back and forth on whether or not to buy it. . .your excitement this post just convinced me.

[amalnahurriyeh]

I should note that I have not actually read the thing. But I can also testify that holding it in my hot little hands is the best thing I've done for my mental health in months. So, take that as you will.

and if it sucks it was only $4, knamean?

[heartequals]

I do! Actually, I went to the comic store (with no money, that was dumb) and they had issue two as well! I am excited to read it! (When I remember to bring money with me. Ayah)
