Andrea’s Long Halloween of Picks for 09.25.2024

Hi Comic Shop Friends! We had a great week of sales and events last week, with Late Nite, the End of Summer Sale, and the free comics at the West Side Market! We’ve got a few more coming up in the next couple of months, so stay tuned for more info on those! This email is kind of brief because we had a lot to do on Tuesday, with over half of this week’s books coming in that morning, so I didn’t have time to do a deep dive on everything! Stop in on Wednesday to see what else is good! MARVEL COMICS It’s the finale of The Infinity Watch, from Derek Landy and Salvador Larroca! It’s the Avengers versus the Infinity Stone Bearers versus Thanos! Can the Stone Bearers manage to get along and work together long enough to defeat Thanos?

The Venom War rages...

Andrea’s Assemblage of Picks for 09.11.2024

Hey Comic Shop Friends! First, all the titles from last week’s late shipment and misprints are here! Unfortunately, it looks like there will be more delays on some books the next few weeks due to delays at the printers. That means they’re shipped later for us, so if you’re missing titles or variants in your file, they should be in the following week. We appreciate your patience with these issues, and we’ll keep you posted if there are any other major delays or issues. Now onto the fun stuff! Late Nite Comics! Thursday the 19th! 8pm to midnight! We’ll have new dollar stock in the 60+ boxes that are coming out! 50% off back issues! Yes, including the wall! Help us make room for even more new collections by clearing out the current back issues! On Saturday, September 21st, it’s the Last Day of Summer Sale! It’s half-off back issues all day! If you miss out on Late Nite, here’s your second chance to grab some great stuff! We’ll also be doing a raffle for some of the hardcovers John...
