Burger lovers, rejoice! You will now have another opportunity to wait in line for hours to eat at Kuma's Corner and it's not in Woodfield Mall. Kuma's Too, the second location of the award-winning heavy metal burger joint, will be opening in a few months.

Chicago Magazine got the scoop Wednesday. Owner Michael Cain Said that that Kuma's Too would open in February. Where? The current location of The Counter, one of the less notable of the huge crop of gourmet burger places that popped up in 2010/11. Appropriately enough for the bike-riding, hard-rock-loving devil worshipers at Kuma's (we jest, of course), the address is 666 W. Diversey Pkwy.

No details about any changes in the menu, decor or service - all we do know is that it will be slightly bigger than the original location. Our favorite reaction to the news comes from the RedEye's Kate Bernot, who tweeted what we were all thinking. "Really excited to see the Lincoln Park Kuma's reaction to all the strollers." Baby burgers?
