So apparently the covers on Justice make it invisible, since I’d had several people over the last couple of days look right at it on the rack while asking me where it is. I’ve had to resort to making a shelftag to draw people’s attention to it.
So pal Dorian and I were discussing the other day how the appeal of Scott Pilgrim and Sharkknife, widely praised on the internet, seems to be lost on us. I can sorta see how people would like them, but they really don’t seem to engage me on any level. Of course, the target audience for both books appears to be about twenty years younger than me, which may be part of the problem. I don’t like the idea that I may be too old for the “new cool” comics, but, well, tempus has fugited and all that.
Yeah, I know, “go to bed, old man!”
