Too Many Comics – Wednesday, July 21st, 2021 – and FCBD is in 24 days

Breaking the record from a month ago,  AND a ton of variants. AND I had to check in the “FREE” comics for Free Comic Book Day, which was a huge pile of 39 different titles. (There may be a few more stragglers coming in between now and August 14th.) So it took extra long to count and check in, and there is a ton to do before you can get your hands on these, and I have extra work to do on here and FB,  and I’m completely overwhelmed in my other life, so this is all – no more highlights. You’ve already read them. Plus, I often edit the list ‘Wed night to delete items that didn’t show up. That didn’t happen this time.

Did I mention Free Comic Book Day is scheduled for August 14th this year? I did. And it is. It’s really getting close.  In addition to the 39 I mentioned above, Bob bought a dozen of last year’s – remember, he pays for these – they are only free to YOU – and they will also be on the tables this year, so the selection should be extra large. I will post the list from today in a few days, and try to rustle up that list from last year. We are planning to have a ton of matching merch outside, so if you buy inside after you get your Free comics, you can match your receipt outside! We will also be limiting the indoor population, so get ready to wait outside if you come before 3pm. Please respect the other businesses along Livermore Av, which  has shade after Noon, so that helps. 

The Delta variant is getting scary, so we may need to require face masks by then. One day at a time. We will leave the sign up on the door, but if you forget, Bob won’t kick you out. We’ll watch the real news and adjust as needed. For now, they are recommended. 

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.  We do it once, Wednesday morning. 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. If you like, you can browse the list and make an order to [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. 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. If you want to know about the next sale or store event, or whether or not WE ARE EVEN OPEN click here. Sign in here to get an email reminder for ALL sales and other events. 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 pictures.
