So I was in one of my LCS's and there were these kids, 12 years or so, running around gawking at stuff, when one, a girl, says
"OH Wow! Lady Death is my favourite"
uh, yeah, I thought. So when I got up to the counter I told the owner to please set the girl straight, give her real comic, like Kabuki.
he gets all,
"Pffft! Kabuki's not a real comic"
well, being a loyal Mackaholic (tm) I started telling him how it was, and so on. Well, he went on to say how Mack had screwed over Image to go to Marvel, and how he sucks cause he's always late, and he's a bad guy, and blah blah blah.
He couldn't even say where he heard all this shit.
So I lay into him on the whole Icon thing, and how it takes longer to paint a book, but the 'bad guy" thing got to me. If you've ever met David you know how nice he is, hell he gave my buddly like $40 bucks in free books.
Mack was nice to every person that came to his booth, always had a smile and a thank you.
After that he had nothing to say.
so, in conclusion.......Just do Mack! _________________

I love how he says "he's late" when the book is bi-monthly.
I remember that the latest issue was on Diamond's 'delayed books' list, and yet we got it in our shop that day.  _________________ the 01/05 book of the week:

Hardly. He's the exact awesome. I love him. _________________ -Michael Wheeler
