Four games, 4 field goals, one OT – What a Weekend – Wednesday, January 26th, 2022

Four amazing games, decided by 3 field goals in 12 seconds, and one OT. The 49-ers need to bring their absolute best to LA to continue their unlikely run.  My dad used to say “It’s a shame one of them had to lose.” The really Super game was Sunday night. KC and Buffalo were the best in the league in that game. Patrick Mahomes is on the way to a dynasty.

Very long day of new comics, cleaning up Pops and restocking. I have sore feet and back, and slept really late. I’m calling this done.

If you are a regular weekly new comic buyer, you will find we tweaked the arrangement on the shelves again. All the Marvels are still on the left wall, as they have been for months now, but the DCs are all together on the right, and then the Not Marvels and Not DCs start on the second comic shelf and continue down the wall. There was a good reason at the time, and Bob says he likes it, so it will probably stay that way, unless we get a bunch of complaints.

Five #1’s from Marvel. Arrowsmith #1 from Image looks interesting. I worked on my feet for 13 hours Wednesday, overslept, and now it’s already lunch time, so I’m just going to stop and post this.

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 Normally 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.
