It was so nice to meet you today, @1steveburton! #planetcomicon #planetcomiconkc #generalhospital
Reading this one now and so far, so good. However, I was a bit thrown by the heroine's nickname since it also happens to be the nickname most of my family and friends call me, lol.
Picked these beauties up today. On the shelf at a nearby Walmart a bit early. 😁
