The Shop
Every Wednesday the truck lands at 08:00 and the racks are full by 10:00. Here's what's on the wall, on the shelf, and in the back.

Every issue, every printing we can get. First prints of #1s go to pull list subscribers first.

Raised in hell, armed with a witch's war-craft. Gorgeous and furious.
