A reminder that I get no part of money from the secondary markets.

Just got my Signed Midtown Comics edition, after much trepidation over stagnant shipping updates and pouring rain today - luckily I caught my mailman walking up with box in hand, so i was able to grab it directly from him. Midtown did a better job of packing it than Amazon at least. Wrapped in a paper bag and bubble wrap inside the box - no cat food this time!

I'm more than happy to give you the money. Do you have one?

The money itself is of no concern. But I do grow weary of those people who assume I am hauling in the big bucks when someone sells my work at inflated prices on eBay or the like.

Very odd to see people complaining that the book ends on a cliffhanger. They KNOW the second volume is coming, right?

Perhaps modern collectors are used to story arcs being collected as stand-alone volumes? I wouldn't be surprised if they are planned that way from the get-go these days.
I don't believe there's been a failure to communicate the publishing plan on anyone's part.

Great rereading this in a bound form. I was lucky to get a signed copy. Will you be signing the other volumes in the future?

Mass signings are an ordeal. I have no plans to sign volumes 2 and 3.
