So I'm not going to lie, I love seeing my books in a Barnes and Noble or Borders or any bookstore, simply because I go in there all the time and buy every book that looks interesting. To finally have a few collected comic book editions in the stores, it's thrilling.
I went to the Barnes and Noble in the Grove in West Hollywood and looked in the comic section for ANGEL:AFTER THE FALL volume 1. When SPIKE:ASYLUM came out, it got prime real estate on the main comic table. None of this "see the spine and spine only" crap, it was full-on, gorgeous Franco cover OUT.
But I couldn't find ANGEL:AFTER THE FALL anywhere. Not too concerned, either they didn't get it yet, or it sold out. But as I was leaving, I saw a table that had a big sign that read EPIC ADVENTURES and featured a bunch of books such as LORD OF THE RINGS and so on. ANGEL:AFTER THE FALL volume 1 was among them. That was pretty pretty sweet.

Congratulations man, that must be so gratifying. :]
Can't wait for the next issue. It's been what, not even three weeks since #11? I feel like it's been forever. I neeeeeed Angel goodness...
I think it's funny that you see the book at Barnes and Noble but you plug the purchase on Amazon :P
Amazon FTW!
Yes congratulations. I too am really looking forward to the next issues of Angel and Spike.

Yeah, every time I'm in my beloved local B&N, I've looked for your Angel and Spike books but I've yet to find them (and this is even after enlisting the help of the sales folk). Maybe I should take the hint and just order them online already!
Yay! Congratulations Brian. That must have been a great moment. I'm very happy for you :)
