On the road this morning at 6:30. About 6:40 a disoriented guy was stumbling towards me. As I got closer I realised he had no top on. As I passed him I saw he was naked save a shirt wrapped around his waist. I though for a second maybe I should offer him my shirt and I could go home and get another. But really he was probably an idiot and I should not help him. Plus I really liked the shirt I was wearing. So I went on my way. There was some neat stuff around today, I almost bought a Los Angeles newspaper from 1951 that had a full page of Comics, Nancy, Abbie & Slatts, Mary Worth etc. If it had been a sunday comics section I would have snapped it up.
What i got:
5 Walter Foster art books for $2 each. I already have the cartooning and animation books in this series but thought it would be cool to snap up some more since they were cheap. They had come from an estate sale and had belonged to a lady that painted. There were another 40-50 books in this series there as well as many painting and illustration instructional books. I have to be careful not to get carried away.
King City #6 - $2 - Am waiting for a collection of Brandon Graham's series but for $2 I couldn't resist. Probably should have bought Orc Stain #1 which they had as well.
Bruce Lee - Words of the Dragon - 50 cents - I was a Steve McQueen fan when I was younger and my best pal was Bruce Lee fan. I still love Mcqueen, especially Papillion but probably lean more to Lee these days. Hell, they're both great! I always got a kick that Bruce's wife's maiden name was the same as mine. This is a book of interviews with Bruce.
Bone vol one - $2 - Already bought this a few times but makes a good present for folk.
Stalin's Nemesis The Exile and Murder of Leon Trotsky - Free - (found on the ground on my way back from the market.) My knowledge of Trotsky stems solely from Geoffrey Rush's portrayal in the Frida Kahlo film. This looks like a comprehensive look at his life.
