The Wulfs Den

It makes me sad when I find out there are only trades of a comic.

On another note. Kick boxing has started after the winter break. We are going to be focusing more on traditonal Muay Thai rather than American Kick Boxing.

What does that mean you ask?

More upright grappling, flying kicks, knees, elbows, clinches, and other fancy, hard to do stuff. It's going to be hard. Very, very hard.

I am now off the banana republic to try and return washed merchandise since it shrunk from something that fits me to something that would fit Stocky after one wash.

And no, it did not go through the dryer.

Fuckers.

Will you be doing downward elbow strikes? Those are very, very, very nasty. Only bad people do those. MMA says no.

Have you got a change in instructors or something?

Incidently, which trade were you talking about?

Asked my retailer, he doesn't have "Selina's Big Score". The contrary would have highly surprised me.

No change in n insturctors! How did I not notice before.
Fights in Calgary are changing from more traditional kick boxing to Muay Thai, so he is switching the training to more Muay Thai.

Also, it seems like I am going to Vancouver Saturday to watch a hockey game, yay!

That meant to say no Darwyn Cooke, I'm surprised.

And sad.

I'm reassured, I thought you wall post on Facebook was about the NYCC. Twilight at NYCC would make me reconsider going.

Do any of you gentlemen happen to frequent used book stores?

XIII · Post by **XIII** » Sat Mar 20, 2010 12:43 am

My comics shop is also a used book store.

That's awesome.

So, is your comic guy grumpy or nice?
Was talking to a gentleman yesterday and we agreed comic store owners tend to be very grumpy while used books stores guys are generally very nice.

Arn, did you ever read the Hunter that Darwyn Cooke adapted, or tried the Parker Novels?

XIII · Post by **XIII** » Sun Mar 21, 2010 1:30 pm

He is kinda grumpy but stays nice for regular customers.

I read the first Parker novel and also the Cooke adaptation. I liked both. I have the 2nd and 3rd Parker novels in my "to be read" pile by my bed.

Hey Wulf, I got your Gotham Central issues. I'll try and get them to you as soon as possible and will PM you for your shipping address later.

I am starting to believe, after reading some current Grant Morrison and Alan Moore stuff, that some of these comic writers might have just done too many drugs, and cannot really tell a coherent story any more.

XIII · Post by **XIII** » Sat Mar 27, 2010 2:50 pm

What's Alan Moore writing these days?

wolf_2099 · Post by **wolf_2099** » Sat Mar 27, 2010 6:37 pm

Not much currently except a little thing here or there for Avatar Press.

I was reading a little of his avatar stuff, the new neonomicon issue, then some older stuff, Supreme, Wildcats, etc.

I just had drinks with Chris Claremont.

Woo and hoo.
