Peter has been a comic book collector & avid gamer for years. He's worked in comic book stores for over 13 years. He's the man in the know. And Betsey's, well Betsey's learning. But she does the books, bills, computer stuff, feeds & cleans up after the cats & generally tries to keep things sailing as smoothly as possible. And speaking of the cats, please see the photos of Piewacket & Mojo in our flickr photos. Pie was named after the cat in Bell, Book & Candle, the movie whose title inspired the name of the store and Mojo is just cool. *********************************************************** Please check out our website!
