I want to saw one thing about this episode and the Free Comic Book Day Unicron book. I don’t have a local comic shop as you know of course. The closest actual comic book shop is between 1 1/2 – 2 hour drive. Though I have decided despite this long distance I plan to make the trip to this shop on FCBD. I am hoping it falls on a school day , if this happens I plan to drop my kids off at school that morning and start making the trek to the store. I figure in doing so I should have plenty of time to check the place out as well as possibly check out a 2nd store that is in the same area. Here is to hoping my plans work. If so , I more than likely will be coming home with “many,many” comics. (Points if you can get the reference)
