When things get me down, when I’m starting to frown and think Marvel Comics just might have blown a gasket and gotten turned around somewhere that I don’t want to follow anymore, I am seriously seriously lucky to have one of the new Amazing Spider-Man writers come into the store and set me straight. To show me an old panel caption or two that brings a smile to my face. To tell me things and gags in his upcoming issues that put my mind at ease and to commiserate on issues that we just don’t think live up to the mighty Marvel manner (sometimes in very frank terms). To remind me that hey, some people are taking this way too seriously and unknowingly pull me back from being one of those people.
Yeah, people don’t talk this way, but sometimes… don’t you wish they did?
Attitude Adjustment
I am one lucky gal.

Thank you, sir. I can’t wait for a Brand New Day.
