Morty Comix # 2524

Morty Comix # 2524 looked like it wanted to travel.

So I walked through a parking lot in Tumwater, Washington and told myself that the first out of state license plate I saw would decide the general jurisdiction of this little comic's destination. Fate chose Alaska, our neighboring state.



Then I told myself to watch for anything that had a number between 1 and 5. As I walked through the grounds of a vocational school I spotted a tennis ball a good block away from the nearest court. It had the number 2 on it. So 2 it was.

Alaska's biggest city is, of course, Anchorage. The 2nd largest depends on what source you use, and it looks like a tossup between Fairbanks and Juneau. I chose Juneau because my beautiful cousin Patti lives there. Then I located a Juneau telephone book that was about 4 years old.

For once I thought I'd actually send one of these to a comic book store, but none were listed in the Yellow Pages. Instead I found myself between Colon Hydrotherapy and Commercial Artists. You know, when you look for a comic book store and find these two instead-- I don't think this is an accident. No. It is an editorial comment.

Anyway, naturally I chose the Colon Hydrotherapy option. Fortunately I double checked the address online, because the doctor had moved since the book was printed. 


So, it is North to Alaska for this one!
