Jetse, it should be. If you want one guaranteed, drop Borderlands Books a note to bring one especially for you!

I share your fondness for Galactus, and this post made me really curious about Usurper of the Sun.

For one, I’m wondering how the Builders are harnessing the Sun’s power, that is in how it’s different from a ringworld (Niven), a dyson sphere (Bob Shaw’s “Orbitville”) or a Matrioshka Brain (Charlie Stross’s “Accelerando”).

Will it be for sale at World Fantasy?

@Carrie. Spoiler on his head? Galactus has an entire racecar on his head.

Hmm…this is particularly interesting to me because my mother named me Galactus but I don’t use that name on Earth. Where are these T-shirts?

And where does “Conan the Usurper” fit in with all this?

Well, do the Builders have spoilers on their heads?

Plus, usurping the sun can’t be debated with the Tick’s “but that’s where I keep all my stuff!” argument.
