    Heh, Paul must be crying.

    Trussed-Up Hooker: Blueberry are my favorite!

    Paul Sager, runs Continental Comics, one of the stores in Northridge. Which I think is down to them and the Valley Golden Apple. There used to be two others, I think.

    While we're pimping Valley LCS's, Imma give my shop a shoutout.

    If you're in Woodland Hills, go to Collector's Paradise. It's like the Meltdown of the Valley. It's off of Winnetka and Sherman Way. It's not huge, but it's not small either iI's got a great little event room, a fantastic selection, a great pricing/rewards system for subscribers/purchasers (Rare TPBs never cost more, and autographed issues never cost more either.) and Edward is frankly the coolest shop owner I've ever had the pleasure to do business with.

    By the way, it should be mentioned that Earth 2 Comics Northridge IS the Golden Apple Northridge. They bought the location and gave it a change. Same place.

    I guess I won't see Johns @ the comic shop anymore. Oh well, he wasn't easy to talk to, anyway.

    Crap. Shows you how long it's been since I've been in the Valley.

    Fascinating. Congrats to all parties involved.

    Do any other comic creators own comic shops? I seem to recall Marv Wolfman owned part of one?
