Jersey Gods never really caught on, and couldn't last in the market with so many similar books.

and then that other moron Erik Larsen got involved aswell, and I was off again, and the usual nonsense that comes out "I cant believe you work in a comic shop", "You should be sacked for not liking Random Shit Indy Book", "I'm going to contact your manager and get you fired".


I need a link to this :lol:

Can someone point me in the direction of those Kinko's books. They sound AWESOME!

Can you link us to where it says this on the Image website?

The Bass is like a religious fanatic, the importance of his spreading The Word supercedes minor things like facts or, "what really happened". And like with most demagogues, large or tiny, there are usually at least a few who fall for it every single time. :lol:

Did it ever occur to you that you get in heated arguments about your stances less for your views themselves and more for your propensity for name calling?
Plenty of people around here only read mainstream super hero books and the most backlash I've ever seen them get is the recommendation that they check out Sixth Gun or Mouse Guard sometime in addition to Avengers or Batman.
