Hey Leaguers,
Apropos of nothing
Austin Books is a heck of a store. And they had a darn good Free Comic Book Day. I salute them.
Hi, Brad!

Austin Books IS a darn fine comic book store, and it has been well run since we were kids. I'm really not even a comic collector, but I still enjoy going in there to see what they've got to offer (they do a great job of stocking trade paperbacks and graphic novels that don't require you to keep up with a series on a weekly basis, so that's good for me).
