Today was an adventurous day here. While we go to the book store at least once a week and my son has been given comic books before we had never made a trip to a legitimate comic book store. Today that changed.
While watching a vlogger hangout from the Geek and Sundry channel I was listening to Amy Dallen talk about comics and decided to research if there was a store even anywhere near us. I was in luck and scored. Somehow I missed that there is a comic store only about 3 miles for me. WOAH! SAY WHAT................
Sorry, I got excited there for a moment. So, yes, I found a comic book store. Now that made me super excited. While I am not big into comic books, I am trying to be, as I was just never really introduced to them! So midgey, that's what we sometimes call the little one, walked into the store his eyes lit up. He immediately in the first 3 minutes had two comics he wanted us to buy and within another five minutes after that, we had added a pack of Pokemon cards. I was please that I got out of there for under $15 bucks and I think that overall it was a great experience. I will say that choosing to go on the afternoon that they were having the "Magic the Gathering" tournament was a maybe not a smart idea. While there was nothing wrong it was a little crowded, and I was the only girl in the whole store.
I will say that I will be going back for myself, because when I was walking out the door I caught sight of Doctor Who and Buffy and I feel that I must see what those comics are about. Yes, I know that they are about the show, but I need to see if comics are going to be my secret long lost love that I knew nothing about!
Are you a comic lover? What is your favorite comic?
