That's not Boba Fett. Me and my nerd friends just tuned out this blog forever.
Hey man speak for yourself. I really like Star Trek but I can forgive her getting this one wrong.
Good. You and your bad grammar can hit the pavement.
Kudos to Mr. Langley's Cthulhu! I must say, I do love a good eldritch horror
Sounds like fun!
I bought a great autographed photo of a favorite NFL player (in his college years, no less) from Collector's World as a Christmas present for my husband a couple of years ago. We both love it.
Even if you're not into comics, you may well find a treat there; please support our local small businesses–especially unique ones like this!
