The Nano Event
Really, I think we all know that the nanobots are going to rule us sooner rather than later, right? Sure, nobody ever talks about it, but a moron could see it coming a mile away. This book is all about their rise to power, using toys that look suspiciously like Pikachu’s to spread their evil seed. This comic is a quick read but funny as hell, all about the nanobots being dispatched in the brain of a man who has parasites attacking his brain cells. He freaks out, flees from the hospital and the nanobots are left to fend for themselves. Their last, desperate attempt to kill the parasites causes problems that none of them anticipated, and saying anything else would be giving too much away. Good stuff, read it. E-mail the guy and see what he has laying around, unless the nanobots have already gotten to you…
Chris Staros over at Top Shelf told me that although the Mini Burger set isn’t available on the web page, you can still order it through their online catalog. Just go to the ordering page, click on #4 at the bottom (additional comments) and write in that you want the Mini Burger set for $19.95. They have it in stock, they just haven’t updated the site in a while. From what I’ve read, it’s worth it. There might be two bad ones in this bunch and a couple of mediocre ones, but the good ones are good in ways that you don’t usually see in this country.
