Surprised they didn't ask for the furniture in the bargain.

What really kills me when I order from the U.S. is if the shipper jacks up their brokerage fee. A $26 dollar wack from the HST (on a $200 order) turned into a $116 dollar customs fee.

That's a lot of Pacific Palisades ...

.... that you will probably bang your head against when you sit up too quickly.

Crisis, Longshot, Grimjack, Miracleman, Squadron Supreme for me (and others, but those are what stick in my mind).

Just finished Nadel's Crumb bio, also working my way through Robert Musil's "The Man Without Qualities".

I've occasionally ordered from Russell Books. Good prices and free Canadian and U.S. shipping over $75. www.russellbooks.com

Unless you count that angry emu rancher, but that was a special case.

For what it's worth, I worked as a newspaper editor for 20 years, and I can't remember a single time when the wishes of an advertiser was considered while we were covering a story. Defamation did come up with some regularity.

Here in Ottawa we've got Purple Urchin. www.purpleurchinsoap.com

All those I.C.E. games were murder on the math impaired - but they did a great job with the feel of the setting.

There was a fair bit of late 1970s and early 1980s games in there as well - Star Trek, Mercenaries Spies & Private Eyes (still have a badly beaten copy of that around somewhere), TSR stuff, The Fantasy Trip, Aftermath, Wild West, Skull & Crossbones, Twilight 2000, MERP, Runequest, Marvel Supes ....

D&D around 78 … Tunnels & Trolls and Villains & Vigilantes shortly afterwards, but they didn’t stick. I did enjoy Call Of Cthulhu and Champions in the early 80s.

This entire comp is fab:

Perhaps with a side order of "Backstabbers".

Hard to go wrong with those Kent Soul reissues.
