Free Comic Day

Today is national free comic day. Liam was very excited for this. He had seen the ad at the local library, it was sponsored by Nite Flight Comics, where I buy my comics. The library opens at 10 AM. We got there around 10:30 AM.

The parking lot looked empty, hmmm. this was the first sign for me that this was not what it was going to be. Then we get in and I see the sign Liam told me about. Then we see the Free Comic. The look on his face was one of complete and utter disappointment. The comic was not quite what he had expected. I felt bad for him but did try to warn him.

While at the library Garrett found me a comic call Helm. It reminded him of me. It has a large guy in his Y fronts holding a sword above his head and wearing a norse helmet. Yes and he saw me. The comic was funny. You can see it here.

When library time was over I had to go to a funeral. Had to is a funny expression, I wanted to go to a funeral. That sounds even funnier. But a friend of mine, their mother died, their brother had died a few weeks earlier and then another brother a little while before that. It made me feel very mortal and wonder how I will be remembered.
