Comic Book Villains Page #2

Synopsis: Told from the point of view from Archie, a comic book collector, this is the story of a rivalry between two comic book shop owners. One does it for the love of comics, while the other shop, run by a husband-and-wife team are in it strictly for the money. The situation brews to a head when a sneak collector, Conan discovers a large collection of perfectly-preserved classic comics, leading the two shops to vie to acquire them, along with a "villain" who hopes to steal them first.

when he was visiting.

Well, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, he got this job

driving a cab in New York,

and he saved up

all this money,

and now he's

going to Europe.

Big deal. What's so

special about that?

Europe isn't--isn't here.

It's--

it's there?

Yeah, it's there.

It's somewhere.

Yeah, it's there.

It's somewhere.

Why would you want

to leave town?

Everything worth

having is right here.

Raymond's store.

Domino's pizza.

Very true.

Ah, conan, be careful

of that, um, counter.

The leg's broken.

You going to fix it?

I'll get

around to it.

This, um...

Cresswell character.

Should I know him?

He died.

My mom told me.

She met his mom.

Oh, really?

He was on old guy.

50, 55.

He was on old guy.

50, 55.

Collected comic books

his whole life.

I find that

hard to believe,

seeing as I know every

serious comic-book collector

in the tri-county area,

and I've never heard

of this cresswell character.

I meant he did until,

like, 5 years ago.

That was before

you opened the store.

But he started buying

when he was 8 or 9.

That's like 45 years

of collecting.

It's cool, huh?

And he's deceased, you say?

Too many burgers.

His heart.

Makes you proud

to be a comic fan.

Where--where does

this mother live?

Where--where does

this mother live?

My mom met her

at the doctor's.

She's like 100

or something,

extremely old.

Who, your mom?

Mrs. cresswell.

Oh.

They met at the doctor's

waiting room.

They don't exchange

numbers or anything.

My mom's hot.

She's trying to date

the u. P. S. Guy,

so I can't see her

giving foot rubs

to some old woman,

you know?

C-conan, have you told

this to anyone else?

Uh-uh, only you.

Uh-uh, only you.

Which wasn't exactly true.

In fact,

it wasn't true at all.

You remember that conan

was my archenemy?

Well, Raymond had

his own Lex Luthor.

Norman link

and his wife Judy

had their own store

across town.

They weren't

hard-core comic fans.

Norman realized

that there was money

to be made in comics,

especially if you

stocked a variety of cards

and games

and stickers and crap

that encouraged mothers

to bring in their kids.

And that's why

Raymond hates them.

And that's why

Raymond hates them.

He feels there's

no real love for comics,

neither Norman or his wife.

Norman, in turn,

hates Raymond as

a professional rival.

I think words

were even exchanged once

when they were

at a stop sign

and they both thought

they had the right of way.

I never go into the place.

I have Raymond,

so why would I?

But little did

ray and I know

that conan...

He liked to switch-hit.

Which is why,

earlier that same day...

Do you know a guy

named David cresswell?
