Oops, There Goes Another Democracy – Wednesday, September 28th, 2022

Say good-bye to Democracy in Italy. The right-wing Italian woman that America’s Conservative CPAC Conference and Republicans generally have recently embraced (and invited to speak) won the election this week. Maybe Italians didn’t vote for Fascism, but Fascism rarely gives people a chance to change their minds, once it attains power. Watch for further indications of a full takeover. I mean here.

Speaking of little oopsies, remember several weeks ago when a little oops happened, and certain portions of the week’s expected output didn’t,  um, get put out – into our hands and store and shelves. Another little oops happened again, and we will be getting a few Image, Dark Horse, and other publishers’ comics next week or the next. Our list and pictures show what we DO have, and what we SHOULD have will be listed when they get here.

Meantime, Fortnite/Marvel is here again, I’m in a big rush, and
I have nothing more to say.

We are still encouraging and welcoming masks, but not requiring them. You are only in our enclosed space for minutes, but Bob is there all day. We still need to be careful, people. I am going to talk to the one person reading this. We have put a TON of effort into clearing out the aisles and getting things in order, especially the books and Pops. Please tell Bob you appreciate how the store looks and feels. And help us keep them in order.

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.

Wednesday is still New Comic Day, no matter what you read on the internets. Watch this space and our Facebook page for the 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.
