Darryl Collison wears tinfoil hat

during recent Alien Abduction festival on Queen W.

3rd Quadrant's new location looks nice. Very well lit, which is good, compared to the previous locale.

Technically, that looks like a tin-foil headband (which is, of course, more likely an aluminum-foil headband, which most agree is next to useless - oh for the heady days of pure lead foil! When will they come again?). Anyhow, what's he's wearing is akin to a microwaveguide straight from the top of the skull into the spinal cord: he's not so much blocking alien control signals, as excluding lateral land-based beams in favour of the Clarke Orbit Repeater Rays, the classic 'meat puppet'/'I couldn't control my body!' defence..

Actually, that explains a whole heck of a lot.

Where is 3rd Quadrant's new digs?

[thebitterguy]

Somewhere on Queen W near where Bakka is.

I am going purely by the photos.

Yeah. I've walked passed it.

Wait, what's the best way to dispell the notion that comic book geeks have no life and no actual understanding of women. I know, let's take all the posters we have of the most pin-uppy, I'm not wearing anything but two straps for a costume, my breasts are bigger than my head, female comic book characters and post them facing outward on to the street. That way they'll think these women are in here and we're having sex with them.

Seriously, it looks as if they were trying to block out the light coming in from the windows to replace the dungy basement atmosphere from the old store so that our regular clientèle can come in and feel like they're back in their parent's basement.

Wasn't impressed. If you might have noticed.

I got the impression.

I wonder if comics shops need to keep the natural light out to prevent uv fading on the wall stock.

Could have possibly chosen better window decor, in any case.
