XMas From Homer

Homer, New York that is! My brother and his family live up there, and I just received a package of Christmas gifts from them. (It was sent via Priority over a week ago, so I don't know why it took so long to get here. USPSfail.) But I have to say that it was a really fun package to open. It looked something like this...

I expect most comic fans will recognize the bulk of it (hardcovers of Identity Crisis and 1001 Nights of Snowfall and an original Origins of Marvel Comics) but I have to say that I was seriously amused upon seeing the Flash and Green Lantern treats from Hostess. I was tempted more than once to buy a package myself before.

What you might not recognize are the drumsticks and photo signed by Marcos Reyes, the percussionist for War. The band's not as popular as they once were, but they're probably best known for the seriously groovy "Low Rider."


I can't wait to hear the story behind how he got those!
