2013 is starting off good in regard to sales of The Monster Movie Fan's Guide To Japan.

For the first time since the Amazon Kindle ebook editon was launched last year, sales for the hard copy over at ComiXpress.com are in the lead.  The Amazon ads for the ebook edition were back up today at the Drudge Report.

The big push this year is for hard copy sales at the Mad Monster Party in Charlotte, North Carolina that is set for March 22-24 at the Blake Hotel.

Speaking of Japan travel, the problems with the Boeing 787 Dreamliner seems to be centered around the lithium batteries that are overheating and catching fire.  The Dreamliners of the two major airlines in Japan, All Nippon Airways and Japan Airlines, have been grounded pending a thorough investigation.  It doesn't appear that they will be cleared to fly anytime soon.  Hundreds of flights have been cancelled as a result.
