BOP!



Creamy graphic novel goodness in the store today. We received a consignment of McSweeney's as extolled by Alex, the cycling Manga character, on Monday which is resting on the dislocated SF table and the temp graphic novels shelves (refit hassles, everything everywhere... Putting shelves back together and cleanign them form builder's dust and dirt at 7.30 am this morning,. new aircon not in so all of us hot, dirty and sweaty before we even opened at 9... Nice to know my 4 years at colelge weren't wasted, eh?). Still we got it in and it looks a nice package. Also a couple of BOP!s - Box Office Poison - in stcok through our mates at Red Route. I'm a latecomer to this series, but it totally rocks. And for some reason the scene with the staff in the bookstore imaging customers as hideous, evil aliens attacking htem by asking damn foola nd annoying questions like 'do you work here' while imaging blasting them with a ray gun and jet-packing outta there does kind of hit close to home...
