Featured New Releases for 2-14-2018 and Winston World 2018

Happy Valentine’s Day! Here’s the featured new releases coming out this Wednesday, February 14th, 2018. As we wait for the final issue of Dark Nights Metal in March, we’ve got this awesome one shot to tide us over.  Dark Knights Rising The Wild Hunt adds Grant Morrison to the list of Metal creators. This book was added to the slate when he said he’d like to do a story. Co-written by Scott Snyder. So, once the initial hype subsided, Marvel Legacy left us with a solid handful of really great titles, three of which come out this week.  Doctor Strange #385 by Donny Cates is a must read, with a down on his luck Strange working as a veterinarian and coping with the reality of the new Sorcerer Supreme, Loki. Strange works behind the scenes to keep Loki from screwing up, and as always we’re not quite sure of Loki’s intentions for his mantle. Shop favorite, as any employee to talk you into buying the first three parts, which we have in reprint.  Captain America #698 by Waid and Samnee...

Featured New Releases for 1-31-2018

Here’s the featured New Releases coming out this Wednesday, January 31st, 2018. NEW ANNOUNCEMENTS It’s a fifth Wednesday of the month which typically means an eclectic mix of special and annuals, all off from the normal publishing schedule.  The week’s big release is Dark Nights Metal #5. DC will try to make things as dark as possible before the final chapter in issue six, which we now have to wait till March 14th for. Let’s just enjoy this one while we’ve got it. A great series for those that haven’t joined in, with a good blend of DC mythology and a modernized feel that  Snyder and Capullo have perfected. Since we didn’t have an email last week, here’s a reminder that Doomsday Clock #3 came out.  The series has now gone bi monthly. (I see a pattern here. Hurrrm.) Gerard Way’s Young Animal Imprint is crossing over with the regular DC Universe in this week’s JLA/Doom Patrol: Milk Wars Special.  Expect this weirder than usual story to run through Five One Shots, including the aforementioned JLA/Doom Patrol, as well as Mother Panic/ Batman, Shade the...

More Discount Graphic Novels at CNJComics 1-17-2018

Well we did really great with our curated discount graphic novel selection last week, so we decided to add a few more books to the list. Thanks to all for supporting this idea, we’ll be doing it more often.  We still have copies of Punisher Girls in White Dresses for $3.00, Ultimate Comics New Ultimate Thor Reborn for $1.00, and both Vertigo Samplers for $2.00 each. All the rest have sold out!  We’ve got four new titles to add this week. Fantastic Four by Jonathan Hickman Volume Four Regular Price: $19.99 for only $4.00! Runaways Dead End Kids I’ve been enjoying the Hulu television series, so it seemed appropriate to include a graphic novel here. The series was originally written by Brian K Vaughan (of Saga fame) and when he signed off, Joss Whedon took over and sent the kids to New York City. This was part of a deal where Brian took over the Buffy comics for a bit while Joss took over for him here.  Regular Price: $15.99 for only $3.00! Mystique by Brian K Vaughan Speaking of...

Some Bargain Graphic Novels and New Releases for 1-10-2018

Welcome to our first email of 2018! NEW RELEASES We’ve got a couple cool new projects from Marvel this week, as well as some discount graphic novel selections to help you start the new year with a great story at a great price. This week starts the release of Marvel’s new “Avengers No Surrender” storyline in the regular ongoing title. This 16 part story will run weekly and other Avengers titles will be suspended for the next four months.  This story is being billed as a modern ‘Avengers Disassembled’ so expect a deconstruction of the team featuring every Avenger out there, as well as the introduction of a classic Avenger we’ve never met before. (Remember the alteration of the Avengers Statue in Marvel Legacy #1?) We’ve even got a giant poster to give away with every copy, that’s a reprint of a classic piece of George Perez artwork. (I actually still have the original poster in the back of the shop from way back when.) The poster is actually double sided with the reverse side depicting a reimagining of Avengers...

Thank you for choosing to shop here, thank you for telling friends about us, thank you for showing up and supporting our events.

We have a lot of fun in this shop. Whether we’re brewing beer, working with local artists, buying comic collections, curating your weekly new comic selections. We all really (really) love comic books and what we get to do here.  I personally will always love a good story, in any form.
