Hey everyone! You’re getting John D this week, as Andrea is off on stay-cation! First up, we’ve finally gotten our photos and event video together for Free Comic Book Day this year. Thanks again to everyone for showing up and keeping the event viable. Here’s a link to Sonny Boy’s Video. Be sure to like and subscribe to Sam and Maddy’s videos, they’re pretty great! It was nice to see the event through someone else’s eyes this year too. “Welcome to the X-Men Kitty Pryde, hope you survive the experience.” Also on Instagram @sonnyboycomics! Our photo set was by Laura Wimbels, and it’s another great way to look at the event. She knocked it out of the park this year and it really feels like a walk through the event. Here’s a link to the Facebook photo gallery, where we host the images! You can follow Laura over on Instagram at @wimbels @midnightrentalvideo Or you can just see her yourself and say hi at the next Midnight Rental at the Grog Shop on May 20th! This will be the first...

I think we’re a pretty well-oiled (and well-caffeinated!) team and that makes the day flow. Thank you to each and every one of you who showed up and supported the shop, the local artists and vendors, David Michelinie and Purring Pals, and made the day awesome! Not pictured are Alex who was handling Michelinie, and Laura, who was taking the photos, but that’s thirteen people hosting an event of thousands! Through your donations, the VIP event and the signatures on the day, we were able to help David Michelinie raise $7,410 for Purring Pals Cat Rescue in his home state of Delaware. Awesome job, Cleveland! Winston approves! Thanks to the Rust Belt Monster Collective for the sweet new mural! I personally love the addition of the Spider-Man ice cream. We also have to thank Sam and Maddy from Sonny Boy Comics for filming both the Michelinie Q&A,...
