Grammar Rage

[the_other_sandy]

So, yesterday was Free Comic Book Day, and I braved the crowds at Dreamland Comics because I wanted to pick up Grimm #0. The story was decent enough, but, umm, Nick finds it hard to "tow the line" between cop and Grimm? Monroe has a "Pilates regiment"? Was this thing proofread at all? It was noticeably full of bad grammar, misspellings, and dropped words. I suffered secondhand embarrassment on behalf of the writers and letterer the whole time I was reading it.

And I really want to see the military uniforms of the Pilates regiment.

Did you see Dreamland posted some pics on their Facebook page? There I am in my pink jacket standing outside in line! LOL!

Yeah, I noticed that the pile of Grimm was much less than most other books there. Good thing we both got there early enough to get one!

I ended up getting Star Wars and Superman as well. SW was actually pretty lame, but I enjoyed the Superman one.

I didn't realize that was you until you pointed it out, but yes, I did see you in the pictures.

I was wondering if there were fewer issues of Grimm to give away, or if it was just that popular. It was probably a bit of both if the pile disappeared in half an hour. I know most of the people I saw carrying their free comics around seemed to have a copy of Grimm. I was kind of surprised how popular it turned out to be considering how small the fandom is.
