Bob Evans

Could use a 6:16 departure time.

Looks like he's managing a Macy's parade helium balloon.

As ordering manager at a comic store, this goes for graphic novels as well. And if two or three customers buy vol. 1 of a series, we're definitely stocking vol. 2 on release.

True.

Delivery guy snagged it?

I still buy some, and the quarterly, at Barnes and Noble. But not the game included issues anymore. I have a lot from years past, though. Mostly unpunched.

I had a subscription for a few years in the late 70s / early 80s.

That is one awful cover.

I knew an old labor lawyer, who, before he came to Oregon used to represent some fairly mobbed up unions in New York, and he used to say "It's not that I don't trust you to keep a secret, it's that I don't trust the people you're gonna tell."

I gotta give it up to the writers tho. If NYC elects a Muslim mayor on the day Dick Cheney died, that is one hell of a slow played story arc. Every time you want to fire 2025's writers room they give you a little narrative resolution as a treat.
