The tide of comic-related television and film productions continues most recently with the release of OCTOBER FACTION and LOCKE &amp; KEY. There&#8217;ll be so many more this year, I&#8217;m afraid&#8211;for me&#8211;the personal time commitment to properly watch them all won&#8217;t leave enough time left over to raise my children. (Who am I kidding, there&#8217;s probably plenty of YouTube videos they can watch to raise themselves.) The catalog this month is heavy on BLACK WIDOW and WONDER WOMAN offerings, as those two movies are only a couple months out. Both look to be spectacular, to be sure. But, my first love has always been the comic books themselves. (Don&#8217;t tell my wife.) As always, let us know if we can search our stacks for something&#8230;we try to cater to regular, normal newbies&#8230;crazy, intense collectors&#8230;and everyone in between (except for Sam Lesser&#8230; the dude is acutely subject to demonic influences). &#8211;Glenn<br \/>\nP.S.
