Check Your A Plus X #3 For Rippage

[Rich Johnston]

My copy of A Plus X #3 is ripped. But it's not alone. There seems to have been an epidemic of rippage this week.

So if you're the kind of person who doesn;t appreciate joining up strips of paper to read the required speech balloon, then maybe you might like to search through the stack at your local store for a non-ripped version. If they have any. Some stores, it seems, don't...

Isn't this the second straight week for Marvel having issues with their stock? (X-Men Legacy #2 had particularly thin paper, if I recall.) The House Of Mouse Ideas needs to get in touch with The House Of Quality Control.

It is a trash comic anyways. Maybe this is Marvel's way of telling you that it belongs in the trash.

I don't understand why, week after week, there are issues with the condition of comics.

I'm sure it helps the diehard collectors think their values are skyrocketing, but for the rest of us, it's just a nuisance and nothing short of a loss for business.

Rich actually reads the comics? I'm surprised being he gets so many of his articles wrong about them.

[Mart]

Yup, mine's knackered too. Maybe AR stands for All Ripped?

My digital copy seems okay.

[CammyKnoxville]

There's something wrong with my copy too; it puts me to sleep.

My digital copy seems okay.

This is how Marvel boosts sales: the first copy you buy is damaged, and, afraid of asking your retailer to replace a damaged copy, you buy a second one.
