Taking a Side Trip to the Outer Limits
While on the trip to the mountains we spotted the “Outer Limits Comic Books” store. We just had to stop in. I was able to pick up the last issue I needed for Dark Minds, Vol. 2, a complete Dark Minds mini I didn’t have, and the last issue for a couple of Star Wars mini’s I was needing. Didn’t have any manga that Logan needed though, but we did find some Top Cow Battle of the Planet Manga issues.
Star Wars on Blu-Ray

This might be an expensive purchase for the library, but if your library has started purchasing Blu-Rays this would be a great addition to your collection.
