I went to free comic book day yesterday and got a bunch of stuff. Most of the comics are really thin, so I don't count them for my reading. I did get five thick ones though, so I'm going to count them. I read one of them so far, and it was awful!

Hah a ha, yeah I've seen two distinct schools of thought as far as Free Comic Day goes.
Some store-owners think: Time to off-load the ones that don't sell! And get rid of pretty bad comics.
Some store-owners think: Time to get new readers! And try and entice new customers by giving away really good comics.

So it's really up in the air, what happens!

Awww, thank you! I only get to play with neat things like the monthly treasure items because of Alice's awesome thread and whoever sponsors it. :qh: It's so much fun though!

Yup! I was hoping they were good comics, and they wanted to pull in new readers. But I think they were just unloading crap! I haven't started the other four thick ones yet, but yeesh, the one I read was REALLY bad! Even counting that comic, I'm STILL seven books behind!

Were all of your acquisitions from the same place, Sanssouci?

Thank you!

I love bees, so I'm hoping to get the full avi set and the full room set!

Yes, they were all from the same place. They were giving out 3 free comics per person. So my partner and I each got 3. Then they were giving out 2 free older comics per person from last year. So I grabbed two that I wasn't sure if we had gotten last year. He didn't take any of the old ones. Then they gave you the 5 free thick ones if you bought something, and my partner bought a game.

I also want to have everything, but I doubt that I can get it :_:
