Lots of friends in the NYC area are losing electricity. Make sure everyone in the house/apt has a flashlight on hand.

@victorgischler There is! But for next year, I'm getting one of the hand crank chargers. Works in the dark. :-/

High and dry in Washington Heights. Thoughts and love to the rest of NYC. Hope we're up and running soon! #Sandy

No power, insane winds out here, trees down…but lots of Halloween candy. We got this.

Family is fine, property fine, but devastation surrounding us is a little crazy. Hope everyone made it through last night all right.

As the water officially hits my building, I go from living BY the Hudson River to living IN the Hudson River.

Well, Hurricane Sandy is barreling right at us here in Maine! Worried it'll ruin Trick or Treating for the kids :(

NYC friends… We have power, water, cable, food, a comfortable couch & extra bed. Reach out if you need a shower, meal, recharge or rest.

Daughter says to me this morning "Why did they give the storm such a sweet non threatening name like Sandy. They shouldah called it LOKI!"

Due to Sandy we don't know when the new books will arrive. As of 3:00am this morning (Tuesday the 30th) UPS has them in Roanoke, VA.

Sounds like most NYC retailers are making Thurs. New Comics Day. (What about the ComicsFest Free Comic Day? Those books were shipped early.)

@nickabadzis @naobrown "Spoken" to Bond, Ennis, You, Stuart Moore and many others. Everyone is well, thank goodness. Night y'all!

Still no power after 24 hours and cell service is intermittent and spotty at best. Living by firelight! Thanks #Sandy
