I am from Massachusetts and was visiting a friend in Tampa area. I mentioned to him that I had a hard time locating this graphic novel (gn). He said "I know some guys who will have it". We then rode to Read More Comics in Brandon. When I walked into there and saw all the graphic novels and comics on hand, was like "holy ****!" Sure enough, You guys had the GN I was looking for. I wish I bought a couple more while I was there. You guys have an awesome shop with a great inventory. I wish I brought more money to spend because I would have!

The guy running the place at the time (Just remember he was a DC fan) was friendly and helpful. Next time I am in the area I will definitely be stopping by with some more cash to buy stuff.

I am entering a contest for me and Scott to appear on the variant cover of a Star Trek comic. I would be a Red Shirt taking a phaser blast for Scott, who would be a Kirk Shirt. Below is the email I sent to apply for it:

I have been going to Read More Comics in Brandon FL for two decades. Scott Rienbeck is the best retailer I have ever dealt with. Anytime I want a comic, it is almost always there. If it happens to not be there, he’ll get it to me in a flash – whether it’s a DC title, Star Trek, Dark Shadows – whatever I want to read. And although he is mainly a “Marvel Guy” himself, he always engages in conversations with me about Green Lantern and other DC heroes. He strongly rebukes his employees about saying any negative Green Lantern comments. He will subtly let his customers know that I am a huge GL fan if they start any GL disses.

He went out of his way to see the midnight premier showing of GREEN LANTERN in 3D IMAX in faraway Tampa with me back in June, even though he would have preferred to see it locally. I look forward to going to Read More Comics on Thursday, just to chat with Scott and whoever is in the store.

Some stores have huge inventories, and are like museums of figures and so forth. But nothing replaces the personal touch. When I go to Read More Comics, I know Scott is going to be glad to see me – as a customer, and as a friend. He has great parties at his store on Free Comics Day, New Year’s Eve, and “Black Friday”. Everyone has a good time. There are a lot of comic book “geeks” who have no lives. But, for a while at least, they come alive like Geoff Johns’ Green Lantern, at a Read More Comics event.

If I was in Read More Comics, and some loony tried to shoot Scott, I would take a bullet for him. Or a phaser blast.


Thank you for your attention, and live long and prosper,
