So, where’s Kirby Collector #51?
Kirby fans: Really, I’m working on it. Have been since July. So many things have jumped in the way of getting it done, but I hope to have it to press (finally) be the end of next week, and shipping by the end of October. Be patient; it’ll be worth it, I promise!

I thought I’d stocked our local inventory with plenty of copies of our sale items, but after the first week of the sale, [...]

What’s a LEGO convention like, you ask?
Over Labor Day weekend, I went to BrickFair in Vienna, Virginia (just outside Washington, DC). This was my first true LEGO convention, and was quite an eye-opener. While there was a very vital LEGO presence at Comic-Con this year, BrickFair was an entirely different animal. It was more intimate (there was an estimated 3500-4000 people [...]

My new name
According to my three-year-old daughter, who just spent close to 30 minutes vehemently fighting against my repeated demands that she go to bed, I am officially a “poo-poo baby”. Gotta say, while I’ve been called worse in my day, I’ve never had quite that combination of astonishment and hilarity from an insult before. It’s tough [...]

Biggest Sale in TwoMorrows history is on!
This is it! Starting today, we’re having the largest sale in our company’s 15-year history: $2 magazines and 50% off books, as part of a “Back-To-School Blowout” sale, now through September 30, 2008.
We’ve had other sales, on a much smaller range of titles, but never anything to rival this. I took my 6-year-old daughter back-to-school [...]

Late Comic-Con update
Comic-Con International: San Diego’s been over for several weeks now, but we’re just now getting unburied from the pile of work and orders that accumulated while we were gone. I take wife Pam and our girls there every year, and we always stay an extra week for vacation, since we’re shelling out the airfare money. [...]

Hot time in San Diego
I’m writing this from the lobby of the San Diego Convention Center, taking full advantage of the free wi-fi offered this year. Comic-Con International 2008 has been in full swing for four days now, and it’s massive to say the least. Another amazing year, with undoubtedly record attendance.
It’s Saturday morning, and so far we’ve have [...]
