Andrea’s Dead Picks for 01.31.2024

Hi Comic Shop Friends! We’re finally at the end of January! Did this month feel like three months to you too? It’s also a fifth Wednesday, so that means some annuals and specials to finish out the month, but first a little bit of shop news. Late Nite Comics will be Thursday, February 15th from 8pm to midnight! We’ll be bringing out a ton of dollar stock again, and maybe we’ll have some other discounts too! Ben will also be co-hosting the Lenora’s Midnight Rental Secret Screening at the Grog Shop on Wednesday, February 21st at 8pm! It’s gonna be a big one because it’s the one-year anniversary of the Secret Screenings, the Valentine’s Day show, and Rachel from the Grog Shop’s birthday! Stop out and join in the fun! Then, the day after that we’re heading to Pittsburgh for the annual ComicsPro meeting! We had a great time last year, and are looking forward to bringing back some exclusives for you guys! MARVEL COMICS Death is only the beginning. When Prodigy, Frenzy, Jubilee, Dazzler and Cannonball lost their lives,...

Andrea’s Resurrection Picks for 01.24.2024

Oh, hello Comic Shop Friends, how’d you fare with the arctic blast? Luckily, it held out until we were closing up from Late Nite Comics last Thursday, but it was a slow weekend at the shop. So, to help clear out some more backstock and leftover dollar books, John put out small press back issue boxes for 25 cents each, along with a whole box of Wolverine dollar books! We’ll leave these out while we have room, so come get some great deals! 25-cent comics! How often do you see that?!? While we’ve had time this past week, we updated our Rec Wall! Now each row is its own theme, with our personal picks, creators we all enjoy, popular characters, and select universes. All of our recommendations are either first volumes of series, stand-alone or contained stories, so you can grab anything as a starting point. We’ll add some single issues for shared universes as we have them, like Energon and Ghost Machine (More on that one below!), or if there’s a new series we love, you can get started...

Andrea’s Jackpot Picks for 01.17.2024

Hello Comic Shop Friends! Hopefully, you’re all staying warm inside reading comics. If you’re venturing out, we just got in a massive restock of statues! And a bunch of dollar stock is out on temporary tables in its new home! Also, this Thursday the 18th is Late Nite Comics! All dollar stock, over 60 long boxes, will be out at just 50 cents each! We’ll have a mix of Marvel, DC, and Small Press, and it’s all 50 cents! Back issues, including the wall, will be 50% off as well! Stop out from 8pm to midnight, enjoy some refreshments, and dig through a ton of books! MARVEL COMICS It’s Old Man Avengers in Chip Zdarsky and Daniel Acuna’s new six issue mini-series! The future of America is a world of prosperity, but freedom is only an illusion, with the Watcher Act and Terror Curfews. Steve Rogers no longer has the Super-Soldier Serum in him, and he’s living with a bad heart, a bad knee, and the rewritten history of former foes. The Avengers are long disbanded, with some dead, but...
