Any of the random foot traffic we would have lost because of the rain was made up by our Hulk out on the street.  He roared, he bumrushed cars at the stoplight, he climbed onto busses... ( well, figuratively!).  All in the name of free comics!

Our favorite customer of the day was a two-year-old boy who tried to take one of the Stormtroopers home, thinking he was just a very large action figure!

The comics and shirts arrived in a timely manner, much improved over last year when we were still receiving comics the week of FCBD. The shirts this year were also much better.  The fabric was less itchy, and the fit was superb.  My only qualm was that more of the smaller sizes weren't available.  The small and medium sizes were unavailable from Diamond mere weeks after they shipped, leaving some of our smaller volunteers in much larger sizes.

The titles available this year were awesome.  From Owly for our younger customers, to the independent titles for the people looking for something new, everything was great.  The only thing I'd change would be to have a rating of some sort on the cover to warn people of the content.  A simple 'G' and 'Not G' or 'M' would suffice.  Moms need to know if little Susie or Johnny is going to open the comic and find cusswords or nudity.  The blame falls on us, because we didn't warn them.  Less complaints means more satisfied customers and happier employees.
