Ran into the dude who got me into collecting comics at a laundromat in Austin

I was folding my kids' shirts at this place on 6th Street and this guy walks in with a trash bag full of longboxes. He recognized me and reminded me how he insisted I read the original Secret Wars run back in 2015. He said he still stands by the Beyonder being the most overpowered character ever introduced. Any of you ever have an old comic buddy pop up out of nowhere like that?

Three longboxes in a trash bag is a whole new level of commitment.

Wait, hold on. Three whole longboxes in a single trash bag? That has to be like 250 pounds of comics and cardboard, right? I mean, that bag must have ripped open before they even got it to the dumpster. Maybe it's just me but I feel like you'd need a contractor bag and a buddy to help lift it.
