Corbit Wilkins of Captain Comics in Boise, Idaho has been saving up his comments for this Talk Back:

Hello!  I just wanted to say a few things that have been on my mind:

Thanks for putting out this info newsletter!  I find it very informative, quick, and easy to access.  Thanks again!

Although Diamond does a good job as our main distributor, I find it ridiculous that they continue to allow Spawn and other books to be listed in the Previews, when we all know that the book being solicited won't be available for 6-12 months.  Yes, we can usually make adjustments to our orders -- but this extra step each and every month is a step we shouldn't have to take.  For example, today we just received our order for Sam & Twitch.  This book has a May01 item code!  May 2001!  That's just ridiculous!  Responsibility should rest on Diamond's shoulders as well as the publishers.  So fix it!  Please!

Thank you to Decipher for the Countdown program for the Return of the King!  What a great idea to get customers into the store each and every week!

Thanks also go out to CrossGen.  I know they have had troubles lately, but they have always gone out of their way to help the retailer, and I really appreciate it!  They call to get my opinions, solicit and ship on time, and have been more than happy to help with our CrossGen promotions!  Thank-you!
