So I found Volume two at my local creepy comic book store. I was accosted by people playing Warhammer, but it was worth it.

Where is your comic book store? Because this exact thing happened when I got Volume one way back when.

Dragons Lair in Austin Texas. I go in every now and then to pick up Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep. Just happened to notice they had Vol. 2 of Gunnerkrigg, but not the first. So I ordered that and the third on Amazon.

Vol. 2 will get a new printing around the release date of Vol. 3 according to Tom, so might be worthwhile to wait for that to look around.

Dragon's Lair is one of the least offensive comic book shops on the planet. This says a lot about Dragon's Lair, and it says a lot about how poor comic book shops can be.

My local comic book shop is run by a sleepy stoner who plays WoW all afternoon and likes to talk about books. It's down a little medieval side-lane and being the UK there are absolutely no concessions made to try and persuade customers to hang around or socialise, so it always has that quiet library feeling. It also has grilled windows and no sign, so the only people who ever go there are either lost tourists or locals inducted by comic-reading friends. I'd been dropping in there for something like six years before I even learned it had a name. :3: I have no idea how it survives.

It's actually an IRA money-laundering front. You terrorist-supporter.

Or, alternately, the attraction of it being almost a secret store means that everyone that hears about it goes there almost exclusively. Being a poorly-kept secret can be good for business.

I wish there was a store like that here.

I got this title for the dumbest fucking possible take on sea shanties. Specifically, I derailed the meme thread because sailors in the 18th century weren't woke enough for me, and you shouldn't sing sea shanties. In fact, don't have any fun ever.
In my experience, wargamers are always way too interested in their wargaming to pay any attention to anyone else. I am baffled that they would take time away from their dice rolling to bother to heckle you about Gunnerkrigg.

I'm curious as to what'll happen when she leaves her body. Usually her hair starts grappling things, but now it's a braid! Maybe it'll revert back to unrestrained.

Ok. So I've been avoiding this for the longest time thinking it was gay as hell. But it wasn't. I started reading it yesterday and finished many hours later. Awesome story, artwork is fantastic and the only complaint I have is that the plot sometimes moves at a glacial pace.

I got just one question though! Whatever happened to Annie's scar? The one that only showed up when she went ethereal?

The Molly Weasley of the Forest. :derp:

So Kat and Annie decided to scale some buildings just to talk? Guess they wanted to get away from any possible distractions. Also, I hope this isn't some awful foreshadowing.

I don't mind her hair, but this is the first time I noticed how flat she is. Maybe because the characters aged and the art-style became more realistic.

Or maybe I'm becoming that guy :smith:
