I stopped by and picked up a free comic along with The Wife and The Kid. In addition, wifey picked up Serenity and Supernatural prequel graphic novels and I snatched up a copy of the Death of Captain America.
I hardly ever go to that shop given that parking is a real pain in the ass, but I'm glad I did given how long it has been. The independent shops need more support and purchasing online cannot compare to the smell and atmosphere of a locally owned shop. I'm far more likely to find something interesting and unexpected at a brick and mortar than online or in the very limited selections at a B&N or Borders.
