I too miss Borders, but sometimes I do go to Barnes and Noble for comics that I may have missed at my comic store. It is nice. And I like that your mom was reacting like that. That is such a typical mom reaction. lol My mom swears she is going to always put me on some episode of Hoarders becaue she firmly believes I have a problem. But it sounds like you got some really cool loot! I'm glad you got some good stuff. And I really hope you enjoy the latest Adora's Search for Honor! Hope all is well.

And my apartment by where I go to school is not close to any comic shops either-I have to drive to Cleveland or Strongsville to find a good geek shop.)I quite often force us to go to the bookstore just to buy these comics I don't normally find -but this week I scooped up like over twenty bucks worth of comics and also a copy of "Scary Monsters" magazine which is sort of like "Famous Monsters of Filmland" was back in the 60's, it's like the last remaining good monster mag that is about the classic monster movies and the 50's -60's cheezy monster movies that I love-so anyway, the funny thing is I felt like I was a little dorky kid again, cuz I was gonna buy all these comics and then I picked up the magazine(which is like nine dollars) and my mom was like giving me shit about spending all that money on that stuff!haha I felt twelve-even though it was my money she was still thinking I could spend it on something better!haha-but I reminded her that there are way worse things you can spend money on than reading material!<br /> But I swear-in addition to the Mag, I bought like Swamp Thing, Justice League 0 and the new one with Cheetah, and the new Wonder Woman-and the Spike :In a Dark Place (Buffy Spin Off)-but in all fairness, where am I gonna find all those titles? I might as well buy them when I can!Where do you buy your comics?<br />P.S I saw there is a new Adora search for honor-can't wait to read it! spazzblisternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4132358890134520474.post-91874117518186177122012-10-28T20:47:21.868-05:002012-10-28T20:47:21.868-05:00Well... the night was interesting to say the least...Well... the night was interesting to say the least. I will be posting about it soon. A mess. a total mess. But that is a good idea about hanging onto the smaller size. Though I do hope that they can expand upon the costumes next year.

I also could have sworn I saw that blonde in her hair too, so you are not alone! I really hope they bring Canary out soon! And Green Arrowette sounds like a total fun mess. As eye rolling as that stuff can be, sometimes it can be funny like, "That was really a story?" And I would die if there was a Diary of Arrowette. I would love that.Michael Lynn P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03371185397200027726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4132358890134520474.post-33137530040083191752012-10-27T20:42:42.405-05:002012-10-27T20:42:42.405-05:00Rock on that you are gonna be Pizzazz, and I too h...Rock on that you are gonna be Pizzazz, and I too hope you post some pics in constume! It's great that you were able to exchange your torn costume too. Hang onto the smaller size if you can - if these aren't released again next year you may have a cool Jem collectible on your hands..

Remember those? There would be like a plastic face mask of the Frankenstein monster with a string to put it on with, and then a poncho that you were supposed to wear that said the name FRANKENSTEIN in big letters and had a picture of him on it. I always thought those were hilarious because I would imagine the monster wearing that in the movie. Frankenstein wearing a shirt with his name on it an picture of himself. Always made me giggle. Anyway I got saddled with TWO papers I had to write for school and a presentation all at the same time and didn't get to do the column. :(<br /> But maybe I'll just make a monster movie someday where the monster wears a poncho with his name on it! Note to self: do that. <br /> Also I think you will be very happy with a scene in this weeks Arrow where Katie Cassidy gives us a little glimpse of her bad ass side that could be an indication of her future canary-ness! she doesn't go all costumey or anything but she definitely proves tougher than she has seemed so far on the show. And at the end of the scene I could swear I saw a little blonde in her hair! (though maybe I just wanted to see that and hallucinated it.)<br /> -and opposite of that, hilariously, I was reading a Green Arrow comic from 1960 that you simply have got to read if you ever get the chance. It introduces the character of Miss Arrowette!! And if you were upset about Wonder woman as a secretary in the forties this early 60's comic should mortify you. She has a lotion arrow! And a hair net arrow and like make up and powder puff arrows. She of course she gets captured but makes sure to put on strong perfume to lead Green Arrow and Speedy to the scene where they can rescue her and remind her that "crime fighting is a mans job!" -haha-but actually she kept on coming back in later issues and interfering in the manly world of crime fighting. She was pretty cute though-I will have to see if they retconned her into a more modern less sexist version in the post Silver Age. Or maybe she has a blog of her own called "Diary of an Arrowette"!spazzblisternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4132358890134520474.post-29658279562245523022012-10-26T16:58:14.163-05:002012-10-26T16:58:14.163-05:00Hey Nastyroker!

I probably wouldn't celebrate it as much as I do if it weren't for my friend having a birthday on Halloween. <br /><br />And one of the goals is to wear a costume that disguises you, but there has also been a trend in the last few decades where people dress up like big events in pop culture. Of course, I'm really only in it for the candy. lol <br /><br />I also really hope people know who I will be dressed as. It will be a shame if people are clueless about that stuff.

I always thought you have to find a disguise of a monster, zombie or something like that. The only time I was on a Halloween party, I painted my face white/grey, wore a jacket and tall hat and carried a 1,5 meters high wooden Axe in the hand, I was a mixture between Frankenstein and an executioner. Ah, I also had and a plastic head with hair on the other hand.<br /><br />I wonder if people would recognise you as Pizzazz, as you say, you'll have to explain many clueless people who you are.Goghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04011186898064397549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4132358890134520474.post-87190503844503014392012-10-25T19:19:27.490-05:002012-10-25T19:19:27.490-05:00Awesome Miss M!
