I was watching a video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVEzt31y3Pg

And they mention something about Mark Waid hating comic book stores. What am I missing here?

Well, I hate them too. They are usually full of smelly and awkward people.

I'm guessing it's a reference towards Mark Waid's views on digital comics. Waid is a strong advocate for digital comics, check out Thrillbent.com (it's free!), and some may see that as anti-comic book stores. I don't think it's true, just how some people view the situation.

Big Bang Theory captures the spirit of comic stores so well doesn't it?
