BooksIt's usually the case that the people you come across in comic shops be it staff or customers would like to work in the comics business in one way or another. Over the years we have seen some great small press comics produced by our colleagues and customers. Therefore we have started running Small Press evenings where like minded people can get together through their love of comics. More info will be posted shortly on dates and times if you would like to come along.

About me:
! We love comics soooo much and if you love them too we love you!!!!!!!!
Who I'd like to meet:
We feel passionate about comic books and we want you to feel the same. Our goal is to get everyone in the world to love at least one comic book. To let the uneducated know that they're not just for kids. They can be about love, hate, sex, politics, religion, life, death, anything. Sometimes stereotypical and sometimes the most amazing out-there pieces of literature you will every read. We want to bring comics from subculture to mainstream because we love 'em. We want to meet other people who feel the same and people who are just curious!

Hope for the Future is a new serial webcomic of three ordinary students as they stumble from one bizarre adventure to the next, beset by strange creatures, ghostly goings on, evil conspiracies and a fair amount of unresolved sexual tension. Also: nob gags.


New pages every Monday, Wednesday & Friday.

Hey there sweetie,

sorry about that I must have told you the wrong one.

That's funny because I tried that one a while ago too, the one I gave you, and it made me all angry because they sucked real bad, and they didn't pay too good either they offered like things and stuff instead of money.

But anyways, the correct site is

I N C O M E 1 2 . C O M

it's the one I am cashing $750 a week with putting in about 24 hours a week, sometimes up to like 30 hours if I'm motivated.

After you get your membership make sure you sign up with with the companies on page one in the members section because they are the ones that pay the most, I got $55 for one that took me 30 minutes today. You'll see what I'm rambling about when you start up.

Becky started taking them too and she's making $750 a week, it's making me so mad because I'm the one that showed her which one to sign up with now she's making more than me.

Alright well me and Jon are getting ready to leave now, just give me a call or I'll meet you on here and let me know if you have any problems with your membership.
bye

Hi hun,

so sorry about that I must have passed you the wrong one.

That's funny because I tried that one a while ago too, the one I gave you, and it made me all crazy because they sucked real bad, and they didn't pay too good either they offered like contests and stuff instead of money.

But anyways, the working site is

E A S Y 4 5 6 . C O M

it's the one I am pulling in $900 a week with putting in about 22 hours a week, sometimes up to like 30 hours if I'm motivated.

After you get your membership make sure you register with with the companies on page one in the members section because they are the ones that pay you the most, I got $75 for one that took me 50 minutes today. You'll see what I'm talking about when you get in there.

Anna started taking them too and she's making $850 a week, it's making me so mad because I'm the one that showed her which one to sign up with now she's making more than me.

Alright well me and Blake are getting ready to leave, just give me a call or I'll meet you on here and let me know if you have any problems with your membership.
