    Holy crap, that’s some good comics.

    BQ: Outrageously bitchy woman was the first person to come into the store Saturday . This woman got pissed and stormed out when I was trying to get the info I needed to help her. Brushed it off and didn’t let it get to me. Sunday morning, my boss forwards me an email her husband, who I had zero interaction with, wrote to corporate saying how rude I was. That got to me, and I just got madder and madder about it until I finally called my boss and told him to start looking for my replacement.I’ve been so sick of this shit job, with shit pay, where I am entirely overworked for quite a while now. This finally pushed me over the edge. That guy never stepped one foot into my store, nor did he call.

    TL;DR: Raging bitchhole gives me the push I needed to get going with the job hunt.

    Also, level 20 in Star Trek Online. Wheeeeeee new ship! Pew pew pew I’m shootin’ Klingons.

  19. This week is full of great books, I’ll have a hard time choosing which to read first–well, after Batman–it’s one of my favorite problems to have.

    Batman: Hard to contain my excitement for this
    BPRD: I wish this was longer, so I could enjoy more James Harren art.
    F4: This got off to a decent start, but I’m hoping the pace starts to pick up.
    Fatale: The second of four one-shots, I’m interested to learn more about the curse, so this should be fun.
    Manhattan Projects: I don’t think I’ll ever tire of the historical craziness found in this book, the stranger it gets, the bigger I smile.
    Popeye: I’ve enjoyed this, but I might drop it because it just isn’t must read. The stories are fun and all, but the nostalgia factor that got me pulling this in the first place is wearing off.

    Saucer Country: I’m still bummed this is canceled. Ryan Kelley’s artwork is a real treat though, so I’m just gonna enjoy these last three issues.

    BQ: Sadly, I didn’t do anything very cool this weekend. I guess the most interesting thing was playing “Monster Tag” with my 2-year old nephew and his 3 imaginary friends. It consists of running around in a circle and yelling monster tag. He really likes monsters, which is a bond we share, so it was pretty fun.

  20. “Batman #17”, “Before Watchmen: Comedian #5”, “Todd, the Ugliest Kid on Earth #2”.

    BQ: I got my tickets to Gem City Comic Con after only 4 days of waiting!

  21. Fantastic Four
    Wolverine and the X-Men
    Manhattan Projects
    Walking Dead

    BQ: Nothing much, I hurt my back friday so I was mostly lying in bed. I missed a gig because of my stupid back. Oh well.

  22. Batman 17 I think Alfred is dead and his Head is under the dome with an apple shoved in his mouth because the Joker wants to show Batman he is just like everyone in Arkham Asylum by having Batman kill him.

    BQ: Watched all four Spider-Man films and realizing Spider-Man 3 sucked compared to the others and realizing that my 17 year old self was crazy or absolutely stupid

  23. BATMAN
    BUFFY
    FURY MAX
    PETER PANZERFAUST
    STAR WARS

    BQ: Visited the parents!

  24. Awww. Ron missed out on the relaunch of Uncanny X-Men.

    Come to think of it, remember when Ron said he’d quit reading if Marvel ever renumbered Uncanny? He went back on that. But little did we know he would quit the show instead!

  25. Batman #17
    Uncanny X-Men #1
    Star Wars #2
    Ultimate Comics X-Men #22
    The Walking Dead: Govenor Special

    BQ: My wife and I took our son to his first NHL Hockey Game in hometown Ottawa!!!!

  26. It’s a double shot of DC and Images Comics this week. With Batman getting a double shot within the DC Comics double shot…

    Batman
    Batman and Robin
    Clone
    The Manhattan Projects

    BQ: Saw SIDE EFFECTS in the theaters on Sunday and it was the first great movie of 2013. Seriously, people should watch this cause it’s an amazing thriller….and sadly Steven Soderbergh’s final movie.

  27. GHOSTBUSTERS #1
    WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN #25
    THE WALKING DEAD #107
    THE MANHATTAN PROJECTS #9
    PETER PANZERFAUST #9

    Really excited for walking Dead and Batman, both had HUGE cliffhangers. I think I will just read them alternating one page at a time. Unfortunately with my new job getting to the LCS before saturday is going to be tough.

    BQ: Not me, but my fiance got a “job” as a wardrobe assistant on an indie feature film.

  28. Batman #17
    Cable & X-Force #4
    Scarlet Spider #14

    BATMAN AND ROBIN #17
    THE WALKING DEAD #107
    THE MANHATTAN PROJECTS #9
    BATMAN #17

    BQ at a trade show they held a jimmy buffet concert to wrap things up. I can still taste tequila ?

  30. Uncanny X-Men
    Fury Max
    Bedlam
    Peter Panzerfaust
    Batman
    Cable & X-Force
    End Times of Ben & Bram
    Todd the Ugliest Kid On Earth
    Before Watchmen Comedian
    B.P.R.D.
    Star Wars
    Manhattan Projects
    Demon Knights

    On the fence about X-Men #41, last issue, cool cover with everybody, Ultimate X-Men cause Brian Wood and the cover is sweet, and Secret Avengers cause I loved Rremenders run on em and this is basically a S.H.I.E.L.D. book which is cool but think we have enough Avengers.

    BQ:Sounds lame (maybe not on here) but watching the Walking Dead comeback with a group of friends that I rarely see all at once then came home to a new girl in my world to close the night right. Actually that’s not lame at all.
