Comic book fix

Every few blocks is a trafika like this where you can buy newspapers, magazines, minutes for your cell phone, cheap toys, and cigarette lighters.

Because I'd never seen any Alan Ford comics for sale before, I was surprised recently to see three in the window of the trafika we pass every day on the way to school. You know how once you learn a new word you start hearing it everywhere? I decided it must be like that--I learn about Alan Ford comics, so I start seeing them.

But two days later (as I was still debating whether to buy one to try to stuff into our luggage for the trip home) they were gone. So I guess they must sell out very quickly, and maybe I never did see them before!
