* the paperback version of Dan Gearino's fine Comic Shop: The Retail Mavericks Who Gave Us A New Geek Culture is imminent, and Mr. Gearino has a preview.

I know that this kind of work getting into the market for this demographic is a big deal, and I'm happy for the books to exist and the readers to have fun, although having come from the old comics-as-unique-expression camp it's hard for me to praise demographic victories over artistic ones -- at least not right away.
