So, I just learned that my LCS is closing due to this Coronavirus thing. They actually have a couple other locations, but they are not close by. This may well be the thing that ends my comic “career”. The prospect of finding another comic shop (if I could even start a box at a new place considering how much my pull list had shrunk) makes me feel grumpy. Right now I’m just getting GL stuff, Justice League, and Young Justice, and if I’m honest I don’t really care about Young Justice, don’t like the recent direction of Justice League as it ties in with the depressing Metal junk and darkness. GL I will always be a fan of, but there isn’t enough of it, and it, too, has a bunch of stuff I’m not that excited about these days. I was getting a 20% box discount. If I lose that, even if it goes down significantly, it just isn’t going to feel worth it. And I just can’t see going digital. I’m not reading on my phone, and have no other digital devices that I’m not sharing with a house full of people. Plus I don’t really LIKE reading comics off a screen.
So does anybody have anything to try to talk me out of just giving it all up? It’ll be a bummer coming right on the heels of essentially losing my Star Trek novel hobby, too.
