OK, I spent $300 on new comics in one afternoon yesterday.
Jeez.
I hadn't been to either of the two shops where I buy my comics for a few weeks, but I didn't realize it had been that long.
The first shop, where I get my British and Australian stuff, I walked out with seven issues of THE BEANO, ten issues of COMMANDO and four issues of THE PHANTOM.
The second shop is the one where I get my American stuff. I came out of there with two issues of COMICS REVUE, one POPEYE, one DONALD DUCK, two WALT DISNEY COMICS, three MICKEY MOUSE and five issues of UNCLE SCROOGE. At least I get a 5% discount there as a regular customer, but bloody hell. A lot of those comics are $4 in America, but here we are paying $7 or $8 -- call it US$5.50
I didn't think it was that long, but you can't argue with seven weeks of THE BEANO sitting there waiting for you.
