You can check out Phoenix Comics. They have two locations. Where are you coming in from and what brings you by? I would say come back in April (27-29) for the Calgary Comic Expo.

Hello, my name is jeff and I paid for my latest comic purchase less than an hour ago.

I read a short story once where the husband and wife were divorcing. The husband was getting his comic boxes ready for moving. The wife looked on them as all the vacations they couldn't take, all the renovations they couldn't have, all the restaurants they never went to. Though it was fiction, versions of that are probably common.

 

I think comics become an addiction when owning them, drawing them, reading them, buying them, or talking about them are hurting a person.

 

They can strain your time, your social acceptability and your pocket book.

 

But they can also be enjoyable, be low cost entertainment, a teacher of story-telling and drawing.

 

Me, I get an endorphin rush when the new book comes in the mail, but I don't think that that alone makes me addicted. They have done me far more good than harm.
