I mentioned a while back that I want to do a site for my favorite comic shop, and it made me think of something. See, whenever I talk about my renewed love of comics, I get some nonsense from some people. Actually, most of my friends either think it’s cool (because many of them were into comics at some point in their youth and now miss them) or they just pretend it’s okay. After all, most people have some sort of hobby that seems weird to others. Like macrame or model ship-in-a-bottle-building, or…I don’t know, but comics are cool, so shut up.

Anyway, even though I am a new comic lover, I have to admit some stereotyping. Even I, a comic lover, expect a certain…character type in the shop. And to be straight, I don’t see it. No, the shop is not a haven for Star Trek geeks and super fatties and kids that need to be scanning the acne treatment reviews. I mean, yeah, there are some total freakazoids in the comic shop, but I would probably count myself pretty high among their ranks. Still, these comic-loving dudes have nothing, and I mean NOTHING, on the horror show that shops at Wal Mart, so there.
