Seriously guys. I'm fat. I would like to buy some of your t-shirts. Especially in a case where I'm pre-ordering, where's the harm in having a 3XL or 4XL shirt available?

[jaflanagan]

They cost more, and the margins are pretty thin as is.

[jon_samuelson]

Then charge me more. I'm used to it. I'm not all up in arms or anything, I'm just saying that if I'm pre-ordering a 3XL t-shirt, and I'm the only fat man who does so, that that's the only one that would need to be made. I'm used to having to pay extra for my clothes because of the whole tent-maker aspect, so that's not a big deal. And I don't mean for it to seem like I'm picking on you, but c'mon... everything has its profit margin, and I pay a little extra to keep that margin intact, that's fair. There are two places where a fat man should be able to go get a t-shirt, first is a Harley dealer, second should be the comic shop.

I can't believe that you thought the week was weak. All of my books were at least good, and a few were simply excellent.

We can't order just one shirt from the manufacturer. Believe me, we're not trying to be difficult. We're trying to make this work for as many people as possible within costs.

REVOLUTION!!!

I got two books this week. Not that I'm the greatest litmus test in the world, but that's gotta qualify as a pretty weak week.

Dark Reign: Hawkeye seems to be the perfect place for Clint to take back the mantle of Hawkeye. I would think that Bullseye being video taped in the middle of a heinous act will lead to Clint confronting Bullseye.

No way Bendis isn't writing that story, and no way is it happening in this mini series.
