I don’t know where most of you live, plus I have no idea if any of you decided to run in the Boston Marathon. So feel free to use this space to sound off that you’re okay.

Tales from Direct Sales
Originally published August 7, 1998, in Comics Buyer’s Guide #1290
Reading that Diamond Comics was going to be endeavoring to implement a “street date” program certainly brought back a lot of memories. Several lifetimes ago, I worked in the direct sales department at Marvel Comics, and street dates were just one of the many issues and items that came up during the five years that I worked first as assistant sales manager and then sales manager, alongside (well, actually a few steps behind) the late, lamented Carol Kalish.
