You probably don’t remember me from last year, but I finally was sent back the copy of Absolute Batman 1 graded from that chaos in Midtown Comics last year. Thanks, @ssnyder1835.bsky.social & @nickdragotta.bsky.social !! I can handle conventions, but NYC Midtown lines are something else for me.

Talk about underpaid! Teachers today have to resort to leashes with elementary school kids for liability reasons(not losing them; taking them all from one place to another). Each generation they’re making it harder for public school teachers. Don’t blame them one bit for the leashes.
