@cainmark @hormeza

Sure I'll put one of these in my front yard.

I'm sorry, I don't mean to ignore Mastodon...believe me, I'm glad it's here. And it could very well be the place that's still around after the others fall. I need to check in more often.

Hoo boy, haven't popped in here in a while and things were operating a little differently than I remembered. Ah well. At least the owner of this instance didn't go crazy, change the logo to a random letter he found in some fontbook somewhere, and welcome back people to the platform previously banned for supporting Nazism. So there's that.

@welcometogeektown And I've had a relationship with that shop in the past...that's an idea. Thanks.

For someone who's been in the comics retail business as long as I have, I know suprisingly little about getting my own comic published beyond a DIY-fanzine level. Have an idea I'd like to Kickstart, but will require 1) many creative hands and 2) some idea about what I'm doing.

Well, okay, I had a little bit of business today. One of my pull box customers came in and picked up a months' worth of stuff, so that helped.

Beginning to think the Chinese restaurant next door closing for today AND tomorrow had the right idea.

Ah well, too much work to do, gotta be here anyway, might as well have the doors open.

Not trying to be a crook, just trying to make a living. I can't can't sell this $10 comic for $80 so I'm not paying you $60 for it.

"We brought in some comics to sell."

Great!

"We looked up all the prices online."

Great! I'll go through these fast as to waste as little as my time as possible, since I'm never going to come close to whatever prices you've made up!
