So last night, I had two dreams where I hung out with The Big Bang Theory's awesome gang of nerds at Stuart's comic book shop, The Comic Center of Pasadena!
In the first dream, I recall buying two issues for Image Comics characters that don't actually exist in real life. In case you've never heard of Image Comics before and don't feel like clicking on the link above, this company was big in the 1990s (briefly surpassing Marvel Comics in popularity)—producing such superhero titles as Spawn, Youngblood, Wetworks, Stormwatch, ShadowHawk, WildC.A.T.S and much more.
Anyways, the second dream was not as carefree, but a lot more exciting... Everyone at the shop had to seek shelter inside a panic room underneath Stuart's store after a bunch of Mafia goons, who Stuart apparently had past business dealings with, arrived with guns drawn to lay waste to The Comic Center!
I woke up before the goons actually began firing. What the heck, Stuart?! Heh.
The irony of dreaming that I chilled at The Big Bang Theory's comic book store last night is that I actually got to work as a background actor inside my favorite sitcom's comic book shop (which was a setpiece built inside Soundstage 25 at Warner Bros. Studio in Burbank) in real life 9 years ago!
The screenshot above is from the 2015 episode "The 2003 Approximation." That's Season 9, Episode 4 of The Big Bang Theory if you wanna stream it on Max or something.
Happy Friday!
