Andrea’s Cruel Universe of Picks for 08.07.2024

FIRST, A note from the webmaster here at CnJ Comic Shop. We want to let you all know you are in our thoughts and our hopes are the storm that tore so tragically through some parts of Northern Ohio last night has left you safe even if without power. I share this moment with you as I work the site and mail this morning from a McDonald’s near my home where there is no power, nor any of my loved ones. Grabbing power and wifi where available seems a common thread this morning. We’re doing this together and hope you are as safe as possible! Now, to the message from the amazing and incomparable Andrea! Hello, hello Comic Shop Friends! A few bits about upcoming events, and then it’s onto this week’s comics! First, if you’re reading this before Wednesday night, stop out for the Midnight Rental Secret Screening at the Grog Shop! It’s Ben’s half-birthday, and he’s planning on celebrating! Doors at 7 pm, show at 8 pm, only $10! Our next Late Nite Comics is Thursday the 15th...

Andrea’s Super-Pet Picks for 07.31.2024

I grabbed a Toxic Avenger #1, and someone needs to pick up the Turkish Spider-Man before I do just for the novelty. They’re all 25% off the price marked! In other news, John and Raf will be setting up at NEO Comic Con on Sunday, August 4th in North Olmsted! Stop out, say hi, and see what they have! The next Late Nite Comics will be on Thursday, August 15th! Open until midnight! Tons of dollar books! We’ll have more details on that later. Onto the comics!
