Even with these handicaps, at least one other of Rockslide's people did manage to have some impact in the world. christ

So let me make sure I've got this straight: in the first panel where Spider-Gwen ever appeared, it says "Gwen Stacy of Earth-65, your new favorite." And she became everybody's new favorite? That actually worked?

Since DC brought back something as obscure as Prez, is there any chance they'll bring back Tailgunner Jo, the unstoppable cyborg who shares his body with his ten year old daughter?

Did Mark Waid get him in his Brave and the Bold book? I remember him threatening to do it. That was a fun little book from what I can remember. It starts with Batman and Green Lantern when they were the two hottest DC characters, but quickly brought in the new Blue Beetle when it felt like he was being built up to be a big deal. Of course the Legion shows up, and Lobo/Supergirl ends up being the team up I never knew I needed.

Yes, I hear Rhyno's store keeps it in stock but it's not selling well there, go swing by to help the sales of Zombie Tramp to help justify keeping it in stock  No seriously, just looking at the covers alone I'd say stay away.

I mean, it basically just looks like a modern Johnny the Homicidal Maniac. The sexualization seems too ironic and cartoony to take as a serious attempt at being titillating. I won't commit(and have used up all my Christmas money anyway) but I'll give it a shot if I see it around.

No, I sold it to her adult husband who left it out for her 10 year old son to find so it was clearly my fault.

I've decided to believe that Zombie Tramp is about a crimefighting undead rock band, and there's a complicated pun involving superheroes and Supertramp that the entire series is built around.

SynthOrange posted:Did you apologize for this? Oh hell no. I've had mothers come in and try to return open packs of Magic cards, blaming us for turning their children to Satan, numerous times. We never apologize for the sale it's usually "I'm sorry but there's nothing we can do about that." Like seriously, you blame the store your husband buys his comics on for his bad parenting? gently caress you. I bet it's somehow my fault those fucksticks named their kid Lady Rainicorn.

My favorite thing about making the weekly shipping posts is discovering all the weirdo fringe comics, since I always click on a new #1 to see if there's anything neat to feature in the obscure stuff. That week the thousand Double Take comics came out was great.

So I'm willing to give her a shot and see where all leads.
