Well, Captain America Day was a huge success. Beyond our wildest thoughts. We gave out 300 comic books, 175 graphic novels and put over 750 people through the shop. We also gave out 500 buttons from Marvel Studios that had the Cap Shield and “made in Cleveland” on them, truly a great piece of memorabilia from the filming. For the record, the film crew from top to bottom treated our shop and efforts with respect, and we thank them for that. We even got to meet Chris Evans ever so briefly. Here’s the media links to the event. See if you’re in there!   Cleveland.com http://www.cleveland.com/sunpostherald/index.ssf/2013/06/bridge_closing_filming_give_co.html WKYC http://www.wkyc.com/news/article/303083/3/Captain-America-filming-takes-a-comic-twist NBC http://www.newsnet5.com/dpp/news/local_news/oh_cuyahoga/lorain-ave-bridge-out-good-problem-for-local-businesses NPR http://www.ideastream.org/news/feature/54322 Cleveland.com http://www.cleveland.com/fairview-park/index.ssf/2013/06/fairview_park_west_park_reside.html   It’s cool to think that through your support we helped turned the tide of support for the Captain America filming in the media, even if just for one day.   But on to the next thing!
