This week, my Wednesday off was a little different. I had some errands to do, so I decided to go to my local comic book store then, instead of waiting until Saturday. Actually, nothing on my pull list was published this week, and normally I wouldn't bother going to my local comic book shop, Acme Comics in Longwood, Florida http://acme-superstore.com/. But this week, two $1.00 reprints of first issues were released that caught my interest. I had some extra spending money to spare, so I decided to try them. I've been aware of them, but have not really read them before.
Hellboy #1 (Dark Horse Comics)
Usagi Yojimbo #1 (Dark Horse Comics)
I have read the first Hellboy trade paperback, Hellboy: Seeds Of Destruction, before. but I couldn't pass up the chance of owning at least one issue of that title. I've also enjoyed listening to several podcast interviews with Usagi Yojimbo creator Stan Sakai, but had never read any issues of his title before. This was a perfect opportunity to familiarize myself with the rabbit samurai.
