I bought two copies of The Thing #6 and told the guy working behind the counter to give the second copy to someone who appreciates old school comics and doesn't subscribe to The Thing.
He said he knew who he would give it to.
Potentially a new customer!
It was also the last copy -- and they had to order more!
Later in the week I was travelling and stopped at another comic book store and asked about The Thing -- the woman who worked there said they used to get The Thing, but not any more...
Two steps forward, one backward...

So Dan--
Is it too early to ask about how issue #6 is selling?
As always, congratulations on another well done issue. The critics seem to like it too, which is a plus...
But the real test is the numbers, huh?
Any word from Marvel about The Thing's future?
Curious,
Tom

For people still hoping of the possibility of a reunion of Ben and Alicia after the setup in Dan's shortlived Thing series, looks like any chance of seeing it come true may hit a major snag this October.

The story we had to call “A Fantastic Four Wedding And A Funeral”…
Of course this could refer to Johnny and his current girlfriend or hey if indeed Ben is marrying someone other than Alicia, it could be another Lyja
Is this in continuity? What Hulk is that?

He was in the last issue along with the four characters to the left of him (his right). I assume he is either future or alternate reality Hulk. Hasn't really been specified yet.
What kind of stupid alternate reality has a Hulk that wears glasses?
As I recall, the Hulk wore glasses once or twice during PAD's run...
Yup, at least once. I remember Rick Jones pretended that he didn't recognize him with them on, ala Clark Kent. And that would be the 616 universe.

Well, looks like the possibility of Ben and Alicia getting back together is hurt even more...
