From Kotobukiya and the Dark Horse people, little boxes filled with Robocop mini models. (Though models are small by nature, otherwise they'd be full-scale.)



Robocop Mk II, the kind of law enforcement getting high on nuke every chance it can.

Tom Cruise ain't looking outside the walls into the world much these days. Not since the birth of Suri with Katie Holmes holed up in some bunker. And yet they still make much on the covers of the women's magazines.



Dip it in red, it's the Lord of Darkness from the film, Legend. The one starring Cruise, Mia Sara and Tim Curry.

Just shy of a week now before the Comic Shop strips the covers off and opens up large with the Phoenix reborn and moving sale at the end of this month.



Back and forth from 207 to 10a/170, the statues, Simpsons, busts and other merchandise take the walk along George Street. Nice smell if you can dig it, and if you can dig, won't you tell the asthmatics how?

Note the black lines in the lower half of the photo. That right thar be the back issue bins, or swimming pool, depending on how you like to look at things like this.

Beats the previous one by more than a triple. Quadruple perhaps?

See for yourself when the doors open up soon enough.

August 17 appears to offer nothing much entirely exciting or already interested from a few months back.

There's The Boys which Garth Ennis cites to out-Preacher Preacher. High ideals indeed, possibly money-changing interesting.

Flimsy newspaper Comic Shop News hits its one hundredth issue. All these issues and still making the fold over of the paper bag hard as ever. Unless of course the comics inside are rather stocky. And then it's not too much of a problem.

Ever since finding a box with a V for Vendetta mask inside, it's been the custom to wear the sucker all during the shift.

On a cold day things can be fine and it keeps the face warm. On a slight temperature shift, it's when the mop comes out and the need to wipe it down like a heavy dog.



And then there are times shortly after eating mustard sauce. In which case, things start to stink of a wooden face.

All in the Marvel Universe should by now know the true identity of Spider-Man as being that of Peter Parker. One person who knew a long, long time ago is Mary Jane Watson. Now married to the web slinger, she had much of her face behind a lampshade until the whole Gwen thing cleared up the dating stakes.



From Bowen Designs, made into a wallpaper. MJ slinging it cool and with Spidey's mask in her hand. Who wears the tighter clothes in their family?
