  1. Okay, not a comic, but still something added to my collection thanks to Ijiwaru Sensei Jr. Forget coffee table books. Put this book on cinder blocks and it becomes the table.
  2. Will these rather non-Disney-like shows eventually become available for streaming on Disney+, or will they be locked in a vault? Will a Region 1 DVD or Blu-ray of the Daredevil series be sold? Inquiring minds want to know.
  3. AI 2041. It is a collection of fictional stories, each one followed by an analysis, that predict how far the integration of technology and humanity will evolve over the next two decades. The stories are cliched, characters flat, writing uninspired, but the technology that may be coming our way is a combination of amazing and terrifying.
  4. Not loss, stolen, or destroyed, but I sold a run of Uncanny X-Men, Frank Miller's Daredevil, Captain America, and other titles in 1985 to help pay for college. Let's just say I'm spending quite a bit more now than I paid then to regather these comics.
  5. Too many people have the authoritarian impulse to ban or otherwise censor words, images, and ideas they don't like. Free speech now and forever!
  6. There are quite a few YouTube channels that discuss comics, but I think my favorite has to be Comic Tropes hosted by Chris Piers. He's not posting content every day, but I've found his content well-researched and informative. Comic Tropes Who are some of your favorites?
  7. Aren't most of the buyers of these books in their 40s-60s, or older? In 20-30 years, as this age group shuffles off this mortal coil, will prices nosedive, or are there enough younger collectors to keep comics in demand?
  8. I've found Arby's bacon, turkey Market Fresh sandwich ok. I have at least one a year. How many employees does CGC have, approximately? I remember when the minimum wage in Florida was $3.35 an hour.
