I’m 2 Days Late, We Had a Website Failure, and Weather Makes Us Change Plans for FCBD Saturday – Wednesday, May 3rd, 2023

IOgnoring basketball, between age, fatigue, bad luck, and inclement weather, we are forced to give =very late notice that there will be no Sidewalk Free Book “Exchange” this year. But we will be having a rare 20% discount sale on Books and Toys on Free Comic Book Day. We will be giving away up to 3 from the universe of choices on the tables, and of course you are welcome to spend as much as you like on everything in the store and you’ll get a 20% discount on books (not comics) and toys.

That’s all I have. I’ve been trying to build our website back up for 20 hours, and I’m pressed for time. New comics are listed below.

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. 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.
