We got the shop about 30 minutes before it closed so it was leftovers for us. Still some fun stuff for the girls and the shop was giving away trading cards and old War Hammer figures.. I did score a few TMNT back issues too for pretty cheap..

I wanted to go with Cyn & Jess but I had to work

I'd have loved to see you and everybody there, but it was not to be.

Wish there was a comic book store around here. I could have gone to a library down in Puyallup tho but still too far for comics (a library? WTF? ). Went to a Civil War reinacment instead. The guy playing Abraham Lincoln was awesome.

Why is a library doing things involving comics "Wtf" worthy? I think a vast -vast- majority of libraries have embraced comics and graphic novels as a contemporary literary outlet.

I don't see why its surprising that they'd be involved with FCBD.

Another year, another free comic book day I miss out on

Ah well. I got to smash the hell out of five clocks so at least I made the most out of the day.

Well, I live in the same general area as Raph's Girl, if I'm not mistaken (I'm in Tacoma), and my local library doesn't have anything newer comic-wise than the old Animaniacs and Archies they had there when I was a kid. They don't even have any Super Hero comics anymore. Anything outside of early-90's non-action oriented ones has to be brought in from another branch.
