This thread's resurgance is very timely.

I just popped over to the local Borders here in downtown Detroit to pick up "Snow Crash" for my trip tomorrow. I knew this Borders was closing (the local Starbucks closed in October, downtown Detroit will soon lose the two things that made me feel like I was in an actual city), but I had no idea that everything was marked down 40%. They always have had a good comic book (trade papberack) selection and it did not disappoint.

In addition to "Snow Crash" (a novel) I bought the following TBPs:

Volumes 2-3 of "The Dark Tower" series (hardcover)
Volume 9 of "Walking Dead"
Volumes 3-4 of "Buffy: Season 8"
Volumes 2-6 of "Sandman"

I saved $80.

Woot!

Lady H_B, I'm sure, will be thrilled that her 35 year old husband just bought 10 more comic books.
