[Cousin Itt]

I just read through most of Sandman Mystery Theatre. Good stuff.

As for non comics I'm reading President Nixon alone in the white house at the moment.

 

[Watchman]

Excellent

Very much so but what's not excellent is what happened to my previous Young Liars and Invisibles collections which I just finished buying new ones. Also, have you ever read Stray Bullets? It's a lot like Young Liars and I think you would like it.

No, I haven't. That's the one he didn't get to finish, right?

What happened to your collections?

 

[Watchman]

No, I haven't. That's the one he didn't get to finish, right?

Yeah, it ends very abruptly but up to that point it's very good.

What happened to your collections?

They were up in an attic and unfortunately that box was under a spot where melted snow was seeping in. Water and comics do not mix well.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Yeah, it ends very abruptly but up to that point it's very good.

Cool, that sounds like YJ, too. I'll check it out sometime, definitely. I have a stack of **** I've let pile up though that I need to whiddle down. I'll put it at the top of the 'To Read' list.

Damn, man, that sucks. Snow's such a drag sometimes, though I dig snowmen.

I don't. Bad experience with snowmen. Tried to eat my soul. There was definitely some magic in that hat I found...black magic.
