If it only to plug Queen City Comics and Talking Leaves, this doesn't deserve to be here

your right transpo...we should let you decide what goes on the site. This is a local site about local crap...you don't like it? I could care less so keep it to yourself

You could say "what is local about the toys at Treehouse toy store" too. That doesn't mean BRO should not cover the business. These reviews get people out buying and doing in Buffalo. Buy a comic or go to see a movie. Some people want to know that these choices are available here even if the content is not so relevant to Buffalo. I would like to know where Queen City Comics is located. I was very sad to see the comic book store in Allentown close.
Queen City comics is next to Mobil on the corner of Winspear on Main Street. It is also next to Just Pizza.
That doesn't change the fact that writing about a comic book has nothing to do with a business, and I am sad to see that this is going to be an ongoing series all week.
That is like someone posting a DVD review on here, and then telling you where in Buffalo sells DVDs, irrelevant.
Pardon me for not [deleted]. Relevant? There happens to be a little film called 'The Dark Knight' that's opening this Friday that's selling out in every theater in town (in Buffalo and out of Buffalo). Do we have such an inferiority complex that we need to toot our city's horn incessantly? I was under the impression that 'Arts & Liesure' focused on just that: Arts & Liesure. You're dissappointed that the series is running all week? I'm dissappointed that you had the werewithal to get out of bed this morning without setting your house on fire. I guess we'll both have to live with the cold hard reality of each other this week, won't we?

Tom, I took a sudden interest in these articles after we saw Batman Begins for the first time last night (couldn't catch it in 2005) - it was shown as the kickoff to Movies At the Beach in My Fair City, up at our port on Lake Ontario. It was a great evening's entertainment under the stars - although when the Batmobile was tearing up all those rooftops I kept thinking yikes! the Gotham City Preservation Board isn't gonna like that ;-). Our parks director gave a decent Batman trivia quiz beforehand (e.g. what year was the character Robin introduced, what was the name of the Bathound, etc, but they missed the best question: what is Alfred's last name?) The whole thing has me itching to see The Dark Knight.
I'll look forward to your next bat-article -- same bat-time, same bat-blog--?
Alfred Pennyworth...that one's easy. Glad you enjoyed it, Ra Cha Cha. The new one should be up some time later today. Cheers,
