Gratz Brian!

Of course now I hope it actually comes in when they said it will, so I can buy it as a Birthday present for a Comic Book fan I know.

That’s great! Congratulations!

I’m currently reading through five-plus shelves of unread books I already own, and I’ve promised myself I won’t buy a new one until they’re all finished. But this is officially the top of my list for new books to buy.

Is that something they’d know about already?

Brian,

Let me add my congratulations as well.

I’ll be ordering a copy (thanks to Blackjak for the amazon.co.uk link).

If I hadn’t found a random link to “urban legends” in Google, I would never have come across your excellent “Comics Should Be Good” site.

This site and your book makes me happy – I prefer to read about comics than read comics these days. For those Proustian moments.

I can’t wait for the extended comment section at the end discussing the proper use of trademarks v copyrights v patents!

Fantastic! At long last!

Pre-ordered through your link, and let me know if I can help somehow with letting the world know (besides the obvious telling people at all my sites)

That is supremely cool. Those Comic Book Legends Revealed need more attention. And the cover is great.

Congratulations, Brian!

Congrats!

I don’t know whether I’m more impressed or jealous. The only book I ever had my name on was the instructor’s manual for a political science prof’s local government textbook when I was a grad student in Tempe about 25 years ago. Not *quite* the same thing …

I pre-ordered mine from amazon this morning. I’ve enjoyed your blog way too long for free not to support this endeavor. Good job, sir!

Can I get this through Diamond (i.e. my local comic shop)? I’m sure I would have ordered it had I seen it in the Previews…
