For me, if there's a long line at the counter then I'll browse around the store. I figure since I already have to wait to get my books, I'd use that time to go through the aisles and see what other books I might find on the shelves. I also like to check out the collectibles section and see if there's anything I find interesting. For instance, the last time I was at the comic book store I found a Sailor Moon Funko that I had been searching for. I don't always find something, most of the time I don't or if I do, it's way out of my budget. So, I leave it on the shelf.
Happy Comic Book Wednesday! Let me know what books you're picking up.
