LOL! Awesome commercial!

And, I so totally recommend this book! I even ordered one for our college's art library so that I can read it. It really is amazing (oh, and I wish that they would make actual comics out of the concepts that they inserted in there, like Jia and all the others. I would SO read them!).

Thank you so much for reminding me that I must buy this! ^_^

OH MY GOD, THIS COMMERCIAL IS AMAZING. I only wish I had money now to buy that anthology. *sighs* DAMN NOT HAVING MONEY. And do any bookstores carry the anthology? Kinda of hoping Borders/Waldenbooks do so I can use the coupons I get every once in a while for them. :V

I'm not sure about Borders, but it's definitely carried on Amazon and Barnes&Noble. Those copies aren't signed, but the stories are just as awesome. :)

(and the artists are happy to sign copies if you track them down at a convention)

Heh, just did a search on Bborders' website (Why did I not think of this before? *facepalm*) and they have it, too. Guess I just have to hope they have it in stock next time I'm there, :B

(lol, that's the master plan, anyway! 8D)

You can always request your local store to order a copy for you. I know B&N does that free of charge.

Oh man, that was pretty funny. Very cheesy but the part at the end, with "Aang", was a surprise. "Whoa, wait a second, you're not asian..."

And wow, that blond 'fro really took me back. But not the kind of back I'd want to remember. LOL

Gotta pick it up, I love comics and history! I loved the green screen joke in the commercial.
