I snagged Casino. Thanks! (I'd take Big Lebowski, too, but I don't want to be a jerk.)

There's places other than Amazon to order books from.

I think the point is that it's selling really well

Not exactly. We got married by Elvis in Las Vegas with a handful of friends present.

Whatever it is, it's apparently not "publication" which is a thing you'd think a comic book company would want to do, but what do I know?

So yeah, I assume NFTs.

My wife has been going into a big nostalgic Star Wars deep dive and that's led me to the current Marvel comics. I think they're by and large quite good, even as someone who until very recently just never really got too invested in the franchise. I don't ever really see them talked about in BSS though, and there definitely doesn't seem to be a dedicated thread.

Is anybody else reading these? If I whipped up an OP would that be appealing to people or would I just be gabbing on to myself about Dr. Aphra?

Edit: Oh! Never mind! I found the thread hidden way back in June 2021.

I'd love to hear your thoughts, but as you've discovered, I think most people (including myself) fell off them after the last relaunch.

There's some good stuff in the early bits, though.

Joseph Michael Lisner looks exactly like the person who would draw Dawn, yeah.

According to Wiki there was 30 issues of Dawn published between 1989 and 2005.

DragonCon used to have a Dawn lookalike contest.

I popped hot on a rapid test this morning after two negative ones Tuesday and yesterday. I feel like 90% okay, just have a mild sore throat and cough. I'm way more annoyed that we had to cancel our elopement celebration BBQ tomorrow. On the plus side, it means we can eat the brisket and pork butt tonight instead of waiting until tomorrow. Wife, of course, feels totally fine and her rapid test is negative. (She went and got a PCR test for obvious reasons, but we won't get those results until Monday at the earliest - I dropped one off Wednesday that I'm still waiting on.)

Mine was X-Men Classic #3, which reprinted a Roy Thomas/Neal Adams issue of Uncanny where they fight Magneto in the Savage Land, which is probably as good an intro to comics as you can get. I think I still have it somewhere.

I guess I had a bunch of Archie digests before getting into superheroes, but I certainly couldn't tell you which I got first.

EDIT: That was better suited for industry terribleness.

Also I made a summer thread over here since this is about to hit six months old
