New Comic Bookstores!

I went to a new comic book store today. I thought I read about another one in the area but then never came across it and it only shows up on google if I put in something about cards and games which is strange. It's also closer than the other crap one. I've been planning on going to Pittsburgh Comics in McMurray, PA. Saturday and I am still doing that but was curious about this new place.

I was able to get two of the five issues that I wanted to pick up today, Wonder Woman #10 and Doom Patrol #3 as well as ODY-C #10. Kind of disappointed by their selection and how they didn't have any Black, Glitterbomb, or Chimera Brigade. I hope to get these at Pittsburgh Comics Saturday. I might also go to another comic shop in Pittsburgh since I will be that close anyways.

With the new shop I found, it wasn't bad but the selection was just okay and they didn't seem to have any dollar bins. It was also one of those comic shops that is small and cluttered kind of, that I've read so much about with how a lot of comic shops are but it wasn't bad really. It had a lot of good reviews that made me feel more comfortable with checking it out. It also did just seem kind of cozier in a way and is really the size of a comic shop that is not going out of business in a year or two like the one that I am not going to anymore. The person running it seemed nice but I still feel awkward about going to a new comic shop and not sure what to expect really. I think I will stop there on Wednesday's to pick up what I can find and the stuff I can't get, I'll get on Saturday's at Pittsburgh Comics.

I am still super excited about going to Pittsburgh Comics Saturday. I am already fantasizing about how I will be going there on Saturdays after my drum lesson and maybe going into Pittsburgh at times too to have fun there. I also love the idea of picking up a bunch of comics and stopping at a coffee shop somewhere and drinking a bunch of coffee and reading comics. We don't even really have any coffee shops around here too which is weird. I also love that Pittsburgh Comics has a podcast and they have a show all about new releases and things called Comics Now. Looks like it might be a cable access show which would be too awesome to live in that area and to be able to watch it but you can also check it out online.

Comic Books Oh Yeah! is on twitter.

If anyone is interested, I'm on twitter. Sometimes it's better to share stuff in 140 characters or less and retweeting awesome comic book things is even better than that.
