Worrisome Warriors Will Need Rare Road Win – Wednesday, April 26th, 2023

Somehow the Warriors played only two games in 6 days and are 2-2 at this writing.  But Phoenix and Denver are already on rest, and the Lakers might be only one game away from rest. So it’s still WAY uphill.  Rooting for the Lakers to knock Brooks and Morant out.  In 7. And the  best reg season team has to go 3-0 now. Crazy.

Free Comic Book Day is only 10 days away, and Bob is planning on going back to the good-old pre-pandemic days of matching your paid receipt with equal values of books out on the sidewalk. Oh, and he’ll have 40-60 free comics to choose 3 from, as always. AND your old friend and receipt checker Ralph will be there to put it together and help! I know. That alone is enough to go the extra mile!  I’ll put together a list of official entries for 2023 in about a day.

I assume we got all the comics shown below.  I looked at the list and am too rushed to think of anything.

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, millennium, etc. (And text messages from 5-Star.) The complete list is found below.
