I've moved to digital for everything outside of stuff I can get in fancy hardcovers.

Yeah I just think I'm going to switch to digital when it comes to the new issues. It'll appease my wife. I'll still get old back issues to fill collections.

I haven't bought a floppy in years and don't intend to change that. Even if I wanted to, I don't have the space to store piles of paper. Digital is so much nicer. I'm almost even out of room for collected stuff, though I need to purge since there's lots of things I don't really want anymore.

I try and keep my floppies in good condition so I can give them to kids eventually. If you got a younger cousin, nephew or niece, it's a pretty good prank on their parents to just drop off an entire long box of comics and say "hey you wanted them to read more, right? unplug a little?

I'll probably buy floppies as long as my LCS stays open. I like going in every Wednesday and talking with the owners and other regulars. I tend to let the floppies build up and read them in arcs, then stick them in my trade-in box to take to the store once it gets full. I get store credit for the trades which I then use to try trade of series I'm curious about but don't want to buy in single issues until I'm sure I like it. It's a decent enough routine and it works for me.

I only buy floppies these days if it's a cool cover I want to do something with. For instance, my sister does roller derby and is in to bad rear end chicks doing bad rear end things, so I got her a framed copy of the A-Force roller derby variant. I have the Moon Girl Animorphs variant hanging in my house.

It's nice to be appreciated. Went to a small comic & toy show on Sunday and ran into a bunch of former customers who all said they don't like my replacement. Good feels.

Oh fun stuff. Tony Moore is doing a signing at a local tattoo shop this Saturday. He was supposed to head over to the store afterwards for a second signing but once I was gone I really stopped caring about making that happen for them since the owner of the tattoo shop is my friend and he is friends with Moore. Just got a pretty lovely text message about it from my old boss, he's just saw the event on FB and wants to know why he "cancelled" on them. I'm missing the job less and less.

I've seen far more of Tony Moore than I would have ever cared to see following his IG.
