Its WEDNESDAY!

And you know what that means?
If you said "an evening service and/or dinner at our local church", you might be right, but not in my books.
Because today was also NEW COMIC BOOKS DAY! ^.=.^ I LOVE Wednesdays for that. No matter where you go in the world: if it's Wednesday, its New Comic Book day at your local comic store. Seriously - go check one out sometime! :D You'll find so many geeks there it may unsettle you!
But this Wednesday was unlike any other new comic book day. Today launched the 4th issue of "Haunt" - a comic published by Image and made by a team of some pretty amazing talent - including Todd McFarlane and Robert Kirkman. When issue #3 came out last month I had written in a letter to their fan-mail thingy because I was so utterly impressed by the writing and art of the comic. And it made FIRST LETTER this month when #4 came out! ^.=.^ You'll find it there in the back where they answer fanmail. :) I'm buying a second copy of it to have autographed someday. :P Yeah - I'm one of THOSE geeks.

Deep down I think every furry is a bit of a geek, and I love that about our community/fandom thingy. The world needs more geeks & nerds, because we still haven't taken over the world. (ONE DAY TRUE BELIEVERS! ONE DAY!) I think the extent of a person's geekiness is revealed on Wednesdays at the comic book store. And for that reason, I go there. Every Wednesday that I am able - I swing by my local shop and say hullo to all the nerds, fanboys, geeks, furries, Trekkies, Wars Fans, Warhammer weekenders, L5R lovers, D&D Proud Virgins, Magic: The Gathering groupies, Yu-Gi-Oh heads, and Pokemaniacs. Because on Wednesday, the weekly warriors of Hump Day come out to geek out about their favourite things, their guilty pleasures, and their Comic-Crack habits (if you have a comic-crack habit, please do not seek out medical attention - you're in good hands and even better company).
So this Wednesday, or maybe next - I encourage you to find out where your nearest comic book store is, drop in, and say 'ello! Not hello - "Ello", (but its close enough).
So that's all I've got to say about that - happy New Comics Day from me to you! And 'till next I scribe, ciao!
