i could not be more excited about this. i've lived in greenpoint for 8 and half years and i've been wanting a comic book shop around here. clovis had some good stuff, but it wasn't a great selection (as in variety, not that what they had was bad). there used to be a goth store in the mall on n. 5th that carried some comics, but again, not a whole lot.
i do hope they'll carry a healthy amount of zines because there are so few places to get them in the city at all. not just around here.
i know where my paychecks are going to start going, now that i don't need to go all the way into manhattan for them.

people move away from nyc all the time, why this article about buffalo of all places? people move to florida, texas, virginia. this is just an ad for buffalo.
that said, i'd like to hear stories about people who move away from here to places they didn't grow up and don't already know people. because for me, i grew up in westchester and live in brooklyn, but i think about moving to another state all the time (not buffalo), but what would i have there? not family. not highschool friends. and apparently not my boyfriend, since he refuses to move away.
