lessee, besides that... oh, yeah...
the perhapanauts annual is out on stands! (and some stores might have even ordered enough copies to have an extra on the shelf...) still haven't seen in in person yet (my local shop DID order 10 copies, but diamond figured they'd rather have 10 extra copies of rex mundi instead...d'oh!)
didn't pick up much at the shop, just ed's hulk book and the avengers classic with that SWEET art adams wonder man cover. (and be sure to check back here or todd's blog on friday to see art's AMAZING cover for 'haps 1... still can't believe how amazing it is... ) i was telling todd earlier today that avengers 9 was the first "expensive" back issue i ever bought growing up (and come to think out it, probably the only one). back in the day, my pal fred and i would have our excursions to ac bookworld in fall river, ma... and since we needed a ride to get there, it was a big deal... we'd save up to pick up books (he was the x-men/alpha flight guy, i was always leaning towards the avengers)... being a big beast/wonder man fan, i was dying to read his first appearance (having read the stuff where he came back), so i saved up the then outrageous amount of $20 to buy it...
well, back to the haps!
