“Oh, you’re the new guy!”

October 26, 2011 @ 22:46 By: gordon Category: Comic books, General, Out and about

As I mentioned yesterday, I’ve basically resigned myself to the fact that I’m probably going to have to make weekly excursions to a comic book store because it appears I may have started following some comic books series. Today being Wednesday, I made the first of what’s likely to be many treks down to one of the local comic book stores (the Ottawa branch of Silver Snail).

I picked out copies of Green Arrow #1 and #2 and joined the line for the cash to pay for them. A couple of days ago I had emailed the store asking if they could put aside copies of the first two issues of Green Lantern: New Guardians, so when I was next I mentioned this. The guy behind the counter asked me my name and when I told him he said, and I quote:

Oh, you’re the new guy!

And then the girl behind the other cash register looked over from whatever she was doing and said exactly the same thing.

Anyway, enough about that… it’s time to carefully read my purchases before I put them back in their individual bags with boards.
