Habibi - I finally finished slogging through this monstrosity. It took me a month and half to get through this nearly 700 page book. Two thing struck me as I was reading this: 1. This came out in…"

"Or just the INFORMATION, so you can go to your LCS with a list?
That one. I'm concerned about missing something I want simply because I don't know that it's available. Sure, my LCS might order something I'm not aware of and I could buy it off the…"

"So, to review, is it the ability to ORDER that is your concern, Jeff? Or just the INFORMATION, so you can go to your LCS with a list? I guess that makes me ask, who do you order from, or how do you order, from publishers not on the current Diamond…"

"Don't know what I'm going to do when this resource goes away entirely. As it is, there's no Fantagraphics, no IDW, etc.
