Craziness at the Comic Shop

I went with T to the comic shop last night (for his monthly Conan fix) and asked the guy working there if he had anything similar to Bear, which I absolutely loved. He had never read it and was barely aware that it existed. I was trying to describe it, and what I liked about it, which was quite hard because it's a weird little story. I mentioned that "In one issue there was even a Jane Austen story and it was hilarious!" He's suggesting all these others, then we walk to the new comic shelves and I stop and point: WHAT IS THAT?! huh? WHAT IS THAT?!

It was this:
How crazy is that?! The owner was like "Oh, yeah, that's issue 2, I think, yep, here's issue 1."

He was also looking for that Pride and Prejudice and Zombies book but they were sold out.

I read issue 1 last night, and it was like story boards for the movies. What was weird were the ads- you have a Jane Austen tale on the left, and a messed up looking ad for Wolverine or Punisher or something like that on the right. Very strange.

RSA and Kelly Green

In efforts to make my (hopefully thirtieth) birthday party as accurate as possible, I've joined the Regency Society of America, a "Community Board for the Regency Obsessed." So far people seem quite eager to help me find some regency style invitations to use as a guide. Very cool.

Also, just got the latest issue of Domino and I gotta say, Kelly Green just makes me happy. And in this kitchen, everything looks so fresh and just pops. Can't wait to own my own home...
