-   -   $2.99 for a Comic? Too Much? (http://i-mockery.com/forum/showthread.php?t=69704943)

I remember in elementary school we had a seminar about oral hygiene and we all got some Crest sponsored comic adventures starring four ethnically diverse children and a walking tube of toothpaste with sunglasses where they all TEAMED UP to fight evil plaque and tartar (I think plaque was represented by blobs that looked like Slimer wearing sashes that said "PLAQUE" on them).

Then at the end of the comic book there were activities like "WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING SHOULD YOU FEED THE TEETH?" where there was a list of vegetables and something like cookies that was supposed to be bad.

Man I loved that comic book >:

I found out how to dodge the dreaded $2.99 price tag. I just found out that the comic store near my house is now having sales days where all his comics are 25% off and he gives you a hand full of free comics to go with your purchase.

And has anyone else noticed that Marvel story lines are completely awful these days? I'm sticking with DC.

Also, There is one good reason to go back to regular paper and ink....I just bought a few comics recently and the freakin pages were stuck together because of the high gloss they use on it. If a comic store goes over a certain number of degrees.....bye bye comic. Go back to the old paper I say.

I WORKED IN A COMIC BOOK STORE FOR YEARS. IF IT WASN'T FOR TPB SALES WE WOULD OF CLOSED 2 YEARS AGO.
GOOD NEWS-DC IS GOIN' BACK TO JUST $2.99 A COMIC.
BAD NEWS-JOE QUEERSADA IS KEEPIN' MOST MARVEL BOOKS AT $3.99.
I USED TO COLLECT 70-80 BOOKS A MONTH....NOW I'M DOWN TO 12.
