You forgot a bag? How did you get it back?

Posted: **Sun Feb 22, 2009 1:48 pm**

I just forget it when passing through customs of the conveyor belt. I called the airline and someone brought it through for me.

Christ. Looking at that list of comics in a straight list. Christ! Did you have to buy them a seat of their own?

No, they did, however, have their own bag.

(Which I forgot)

Madness! I made sure my bags containing comics never left my eyesight during the trip back.

My checked luggage was lighter than my carry-onboard bags.

I kept my signed comics with me,.

Not as many as me, I don't think.

Posted: **Mon Feb 23, 2009 6:24 pm**

That seems impossible, yes. Again (since I don't think you saw my wuestion previously): how many comics do you get monthly?

I'd actually like to cut that down to about 60 comics, but I think there are a few mini series ending soon and heavily delayed titles on that list.

Comics are too expensive and not good enough, as of late.

Posted: **Mon Feb 23, 2009 6:33 pm**

True. I've always made budget for 10. I might change that, found a shop which ships comics for way less than my shop, but I'd have to order each month from Previews. This means I might get 15 comics/month, but since I'd have to look every month what I'd want, I'd be much more pickier and change my list more often.

Posted: **Mon Feb 23, 2009 6:40 pm**

I was considering looking online to see what comics cost for online subscriptions.
I would not stop using my store completely, but might cut it down to 30 books in the store and then order online.

Posted: **Mon Feb 23, 2009 6:44 pm**

Can't help you there, the online store I'm thinking about is in Holland. They do ship outside Holland, but I doubt that with shipping costs it would really be worth it to you.

Posted: **Mon Feb 23, 2009 6:55 pm**

I`d be looking at a US site like mycomicshop.com, or, fuck, even midtown.

Posted: **Mon Feb 23, 2009 6:58 pm**

I know you said milehighcomics is expensive, but quite a few people I know here use it. Maybe they don't know about other stores, but I doubt it. I guess the dollar/euro rate has something to do with that as well, though.

Posted: **Mon Feb 23, 2009 7:13 pm**

I never looked at it for subscription, just back issues.

Just found a whack of comics to add.

FLASH: REBIRTH
LITERALS
SEAGUY
DARK REIGN HAWKEYE
SPIDER-WOMAN

Holy crap my crotch has been sore for the last 2 days. I should see the doctor, and yet, I am supposed to be on a plane tomorrow.

You don't already do that? No pre-order for you?

Posted: **Wed Feb 25, 2009 4:48 am**

Uh, yeah, but I've simply got a list at my shop. And I hardly ever change that since I'm too lazy for it and don't really like hopping around and get only bits and pieces. That, and I'm usually a bit behind the curve, so hopping on with the third issue of a run seems so... hopeless. If I've got to look at it each month, I know I'll be much more critical at what I get. That'd be a good thing, though.
