dustbunny105My oldest niece may be coming over this weekend so I can foist some of my books and craft supplies onto her. She's learning crochet, apparently, so I'm hoping she'll be interested in the yarns I don't want anymore. Either way, a purge will help me a lot in doing final touch-ups on my room. Well, not quite final. There's still the matter of resetting the toy collection, which won't be happening until I get a couple new wall shelves and at least a few poster frames. But, y'know, apart from that.
Oh, speaking of books. Guess what I found out? So, I backed a Kickstarter for a Unico reboot comic some years back. Put the volume on my shelf and kinda forgot about it until last year. Finally read it and enjoyed it but realized it was the first part of a series. Which was certainly stated in the Kickstarter but I either didn't notice or forgot. Anyway, I went ahead and bought the next volume... Or, at least, I thought I did. Something that bugged me immediately was that the covers didn't match. That wasn't the reason I didn't read it right away but it has irritated me every time I've looked at them together, so maybe it was the reason I didn't think much of the rather obvious number one on it. Inasmuch as I did notice, I just thought, y'know, obviously this is Vol 1 because the Kickstarter book was Vol 0, right? Like, it was a pilot or proof of concept kind of thing? Yeeeah, no, as you've probably already determined, it was not. What I bought was actually a second copy of the volume I already had. The covers don't match because the first one was a Kickstarter exclusive. So, uh. At least I've got one with a cover that'll match the rest of the books when I get them, eh?
