    Howdy! Hey, what’s up with the “Because y’all can’t get your stuff in on time” at the begining of this page? I’ve noticed various blog crawlers have picked that part up and attached it to the beginning of our (AMERICANS UK)press release.

    Should I be sending more comic events directly to you, Sarah? Jim Hanley’s Universe is having a rock and comics thang on 9/19 also.

    Thank you,

    Jef UK
