Strangers in Paradise, Phantom on the train

Reviews

One chapter left on the third Strangers in Paradise pocket book. A twisty yarn that started off oh so simple and sweet. Diving toward the end it was certainly not that kind of bore. Events went balls out of its mind midway through and the characters are growing and learning, a strange feeling, a welcome change to the reading. This is good stuff. Really seeing that connection with the people. Emotional as they are.

The final chapter was tackled on the train. A dreary place which for the past few weeks has been very conducive to sleep. Very. Staying awake is pretty hard when there are people eyeing off that slim spot on the seats.

A location and scene wherein a stranger sits down on the left and opens up an issue of The Phantom to read. From the look of the weight, it wasn't the recently released monster issue. More on the side of a regular fat one. Still, it was odd to experience this. Sure bet he didn't know what comic was on his right.

There is no train of sense.

Counterside Noise shoots trash talk, staff picks and anything else comics related and not so from the loins of the Comic Shop in Liverpool.

A place to pick up busts, statues, Simpsons toys, Transformers, T-shirts, action figures and anime as well as a place to find some storage and collecting needs.

Don't get ahead of yourself or you'll forget about the comics.

Speaking of which, wonder what's coming in this week?
