Merry Christmas – Happy Holidays – Be Safe – Wednesday, December 22nd, 2021

We did get our normal shipment, more complete than usual, on time and without too much hassle. Wow, like it’s Christmas or something! I’m not going to try to summarize anything. We did get 300 Manga books the week before, and I put them out, including Junji Ito’s brand new Deserter, and all the rest. At least a dozen new Pops showed up yesterday. And that’s it for now.

Merry Christmas and/or Happy Holidays. Bob’s open 11-7 Friday, and 12-5 Saturday, so you can spend your cash gifts fast.

If it has been more than 6 weeks since you’ve been in,  we moved This Week’s Marvels. They are on the wall opposite  from the other new comics you were used to finding, behind you, 180 degrees, the wall that’s parallel to the red racks where your new comics USED to be, and STILL ARE, just without the Marvels, which are on the opposite wall, in front of the last few week’s Marvels, which have been there for a year. Just turn and go between or around the A-Frame shelves, and look for the red “This Week” cards. So far, we like it. Let us know what you think. And for now, our list also has the Marvels separated out after all  the other comics.

I’m having trouble finding good images in any kind of normal layout. Thanks to League Of Comic Geeks for this week’s images, which are in some unusual, non-alphabetical order, and 8 across. So it’s a somewhat random sample. I’ll keep searching. Use the list, and MAYBE the pictures will be useful.

We are enforcing a Mask Rule. We are concerned and frankly afraid of the Desantis Variant’s effectiveness and apparent success in younger people and children. So, please, take one for team America and get a vaccine.

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. 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.
