Metropolis Mailbag 3

Say It Backwards has its first anniversary is Friday. I can't believe that. I should probably do something for that. So far my three most talked about posts have been about bootleg toys, helping kids with cancer and Lex Luthor having sex with the Parasite. I love the internet.


Some emails I've received

1 How've you been?
Meh. I've found a place to stay*, that's something. Still irregularly employed. I found something, but it didn't work out because of some very ugly things.

2 How's Ben?
He started school a couple of weeks ago! How awesome is that? He's really happy to be back, too.

3 You still doing the plush Mxy thing?
Yeah, it's just all things like that are on hold until after the Charity fund raiser.

4 You didn't finish ______ series of posts
I know. I'm really bad about that. I'm sorry.

5 It's good to see regular posting from you again
Thank you!

6 You didn't mention Jim Mooney's passing
I know. I feel kind of bad about that. I loved Mooney, to the best of my recollection, he was the first comic artist whose name I knew (well, besides Curt Swan). I just didn't know what to say. I'm going to do something about him soon.

7 Composite Superman is lame.
You're lame!




*You've seen me mention moving soon. I won't have much room at the new place, so I can't take much with me. I have to get rid of almost everything. Action figures from lots of different lines (including every 25th anniversary GI Joe figure; I got REALLY carried away with those), minimates, Lego, DVDs, comics, and just whatever else pops up as i finish packing. I'm not looking to make a fortune, just find good homes for some cool stuff. Buy my stuff so I don't have to throw it away! Mention SIB and I'll throw in some free swag like a Superman lunch box or something. Also, I started getting snarky and punchy writing up auction titles and descriptions. I'm a terrible salesman.

DISCLAIMER: The auctions I mention here have NOTHING to do with the Ben's Charity Art Auction. Those will be under a completely different ebay title, paypal and and bank account. Those start on May 3, 2008. This is just me selling some stuff so I have less to pack. PLEASE DO NOT CONFUSE THIS WITH THE CHARITY AUCTION.

I hope you guys don't think the plugging is too tacky.
