I love that even the acronyms for your book titles are longer than most other book titles.

Do you? Because you sort of sound like you don't love it.

I legitimately do. I think I'm going to take it in the opposite direction. My next book title will be half a letter.

I hope it's half a "W".

I’m very excited for WTFPFH? and appreciate your candor in discussing its origins and your motivations behind what it’s success will be measured by. But also, where’s that chocolate milk update?

I know, I know. I can't always give the people what they want or they will get sick of it. I have to try and sell them comic books too.

The record store looks amazing. Looks like I'm going to have to get this and the record cover. Damn it. If I don't it'll keep me up at night and my soul won't feel right.

I really love it when an artist does the coloring too. Jamal Campbell comes to mind. Since we're talking about buildings and places if love to see Tyler's take on a comic shop or a strip mall. There's something kind of depressing about a strip mall. Most strip malls I see are kind of run down. Almost all of my lcs were in strip malls too. Very much the opposite of a record store. The record store was life growing up. So was the comic shop, but I'm different ways. My comic shops were dirty and musty. The record shops were either bright and vibrant, very punk rock, or had a coffee shop vibe.

I went to a shop in Colorado that was a coffee/comic/record store. I about shit my pants.
