Stumbled over here from iFanboy. Wow, I must say this is hilarious. I've got a friend whom works at a comic shop and I'll pop in to say hi from time to time and normally hang out for a little while. I've been a comic reader for a number of years and just from eavesdropping or even having the misfortune of getting sucked into conversation with some folks, I've seen first hand some of these comments. Kudos! Keep it going.

Urgh, I know THAT one.
ReplyDeleteWhen I worked in a comic shop, I had to constantly tell people that we where a retailer and NOT a dealer. We get them direct, then distribute.
I managed to keep it that simple and not flip out (somehow) on a regular basis.
I can see why he loves Wolverine, since his fingers are actually claws.
