Thank you. I realized after I wrote this post that I wasn't taking into account the best part of this was for me to actually go to the stores around the country over time and pick up said cards. Well, let me know if you want them, james. Feel free to PM me. Thank you

I've decided I want to get business cards from comic stores around the country and then get them framed as one big collage for my comic room. Any help in obtaining cards would be greatly appreciated. OF course any self addressed stamped envelopes would be provided I've got about 25 I've hung onto for some reason. You're welcome to them. I'm gonna say that they're all at least 20 years old and some 30+. Thank you.

Some Quick Reviews:
Aquaman #63. Written by Jordan Clark. Art by Marco Santucci. Part 2 of a Jackson Hyde (Aqualad) solo story. He helps Xebel fight off an invasion from the Trench. Plus Black Manta, his grandfather and his mother all get "screen time."
A nice interlude from the main Aquaman story with a focus on Aqualad II. 7/10.
Maestro #2. Written by Peter David. Art by German Peralta and Dale Keown. Continuing the origin story of the Maestro by the writer that created him. I'm not sure we needed this story but I love any Hulk story written by PAD. 7/10.
Fantastic Four Antithesis #2. Written by Mark Waid. Art by Neal Adams. The Silver Surfer and the Fantastic Four go into the Negative Zone to find the missing Galactus. Only he has the power to defeat Antithesis - the Negative Zone version of himself.
This is a total guilty pleasure project. However it is better than Neal Adams' recent projects for 2 reasons. He has a writer (Waid) and an inker (Mark Farmer) instead of him doing the entire project. It is predictable and slightly mindless but it is fun. My biggest complaint is the way Neal draws the Thing's face. 6/10.
Flash #762. Written by Joshua Williamson. Art by Howard Porter. Barry Allen and the Reverse-Flash race for the last time in this fast-paced conclusion. And Joshua Williamson finishes his epic 101-issue run on The Flash. Great ending to his run on the Flash. Overall his high points on this title numbered more than the low points. 7/10.
I agree 100% with your assessment of FF ANtithesis 2. When I first saw the promo for this I thought maybe we would be getting devolving Thing back to how he originally looked. Also it is a guilty pleasure of mine as well. Though I do find the story nonsensical. To the point I'm thinking Adams is doing some of the writing. It doesn't have the crisp writing style of Waid.

I was listening to Comic Geek Speaks podcast Amazing Spiderman 121-131. One of the hosts brought up that Gerry Conway had mentioned that Gwen Stacey's death could not be done in todays world. And I started thinking about this and I ask you; are there any classic stories, Dark Phoenix Saga, Killing Joke, Green Lantern /Green Arrow Speedy drug issue. Teen Titans child trafficking that would have the same impact as it they did in the times they were created or even be published? I am thinking more of today's world and sensibilities and no so much about social media ruining endings. Because we know that would be a given!
