Skipping Our Way into June – Wednesday, May 31st, 2023

It’s the fifth Wednesday, (we used to call then skip weeks, because they were so small) and that often means a reduced output from certain publishers, like DC this week. Marvel is on the low side of average, but not as low as DC, and the other publishers would be smaller, too, except we are still catching up with a little ordering snafu a month ago, so many of those should have been here last week, or before, so they have a pretty average number of titles.

I have tried twice to say something about this week’s selection, and I’m just the wrong person to do that. There is a list below. Check it out.

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.
