I remember trhat cover, but I'm pretty sure I don't own it.
Wow! A trip back in time....."How to beat Centipede" I suck at most video games. I have quick response time and excellent muscle memory for repeating tasks, but i have very poor coordination in general. Today someone placed a plastic cup full of plastic spoons on top of the microwave. I knocked them over and caught 7 or so loose spoons and 3 nested cups before they could hit the ground. Throw me a softball from 5 feet away and I'll drop it.
My favorite video games were Pulsar (navigating a constantly shifting maze) and Space Duel (which was like a two-player Asteroids upgrade).

I just realized. The actor on the cover is one that annoyed the hell out of me. I couldn't stand watching him and I don't even remember what he was on.

For a second I thought that was Billy Mitchell from "King of Kong: Fistfull of Quarters" on the cover.

Brother J,
Are you aware that Dave Sim has co-writing credits on a 2 page story in this Blip #1 anthology?
You'll see that it is also a sampler for Thieves and Kings, Shades of Gray, Dreamwalker and other indy comics you've either seen scanned or they will be scanned eventually.

Brother J, Are you aware that Dave Sim has co-writing credits on a 2 page story in this Blip #1 anthology? Nope, was not aware of that. There's quite a bit of stuff that Sim has done outside of Cerebus that I don't have. In fact, I still need to pick up quite a few issues of Glamourpuss and Cerebus Archive to be complete on those series. I guess that's what happens when you stop buying new books. |

I honestly think it's a smart decision to cut back. It's a catch-22. Seeing the obscure stuff is always fun. Having it available at your fingertips is fun. The money spent and the space it consumes is not fun... especially if it's just viewed as dollar box drek by everyone else.
