I still Don’t Know How Game 5 Went, So Don’t Tell Me  – Wednesday, May 10th, 2023

I’m on the road in my Budget Truck in W. Wendover, NV, at 11 pm, Wednesday night, eating a Ceasar salad, and couldn’t find a radio station that wasn’t preaching. I saw Barkley and Shaq on the TV, but I couldn’t hear them over the Casino noise and music. Salad is great at the Montego Bay Paradise Grill.

Free Comic Book Day turned out pretty well, in spite of the threat of rain – even a sprinkle would be bad.  There was no big rush, but we were busy all the way to 7pm. Thanks everybody. If you missed it, we still have some. Call Bob at 925-449-5233.

With 600+ miles gone, I don’t have time for commentary. 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.
