Approaching the New Normal on Wednesday, August 5th, 2020

Wednesday is STILL New Comic Day, no matter what you read on the internets. We can’t clear the new rack to just have 10 DC’s  surrounded by empty space. AND we can’t depend on the new Distributor and FedEx to show up on time. We do it once, Wednesday morning. 

Looks like a good week. That’s all I’ve got. Three more FCBD editions – Ask Bob.

I was there! I straightened the Pops for the first time since March. I pulled 150 out of the back to re-stock, and put out 20 new ones that were still in shipping boxes. So Pops are back! And you can reach most of them!

Looking only at the titles on the page, it looks like the good ol’ days, with the big Marvel Event Empyre crossing over to other titles and variant covers, with 3 new Star Wars titles, and DC and the other pub’s filling in the gaps. List below.

Free Comic Book Day – ‘s of Summer continues. I’m adding to the list each week so check out our good ol’ Free Comic Book Day page.

We encourage everyone to be careful, make your trip to our store quick and efficient, and try to come in to shop in smaller groups, and reduce your own exposure to ALL public places indoors, including ours. Bob is open, bring your mask, keep your distance, and help keep Bob healthy.  If you like, you can browse the list and make an order to Our “strategic partner” (for images), had some kind of problem and published mostly blanks, so I don’t have very many. I might have to search for a new image “parter”.

[email protected]

for a quicker pick up. It might also help to put in a time window when you would be in the neighborhood, to give Bob a chance to get them together, and include a phone number for good measure.

Please wear a mask!

Watch this space and our Facebook page for latest news about the rest of the month, season, year, millenium, etc. (And text messages from 5-Star.) The complete list is found below.

Also, you can go to     fb.fantasybooksandgames.com and you’ll be taken to our Facebook page. We also use our in-store 5-Star Rewards system to text similar announcements to your phone.

Thanks to Comics on the Green for this week’s images, which include many of the comics and a few of the books and other items we received today, and may have pics of things we didn’t and/or won’t get. Use the list, and maybe the picture.
