Happy Valentine’s Day – Wednesday, Feb 14, 2018 – if you love comics, we’ve got some new ones.

First, last week, I reported that the Action 80-year Anniversary would be celebrated with a cool hardcover book followed by Action #1000 a week later. I incorrectly reported that the HC would contain the contents of the comic #1000. Not so. But it should still be a very good read. If you want the 384 page book for $29.99, it would be good to tell Bob ahead of time, because I don’t think he will be ordering 300 of them, unless you all ask for it!

For this week, I’ll start with the fact that our distribution “partners” did a pretty poor job for us this week – we are missing about a dozen comics and another 8 or so books today. They are marked “(Maybe Next Week?)” We’ll do our best to get them replaced as soon as possible, thus, Maybe Next Week!

Keeping it short, I’m just going to point out Kick Ass #1 with 5 covers, 4 of which made it here today. Star Wars Thawn #1 is here, with the most rare variant missing in action, plus Poe Dameron #24 and Darth Vader #11.

One more thing…Our good friend and “regular” Kenneth Rocafort is the artist on a new DC called Sideways, which, after a quick skim, is about an adopted super-teen who can jump through space-time between high school classes. Apparently, “rifting” causes, um, rifts that cause major problems in the cosmos, and the enforcer of the cosmic rules shows up to eliminate the problem, with extreme prejudice, as they say.

Before I could publish this, we sold out of Kick Ass (since we were shorted 6 copies, the rest went fast.), and Hal Jordan (same reason). We’ll try to get more.  See the complete (remaining) list below.

As always,  thanks to GoCollect.com for putting out their mostly accurate list of comics and covers every week. If you so desire, Click here to see their whole list. They may have elected to use a variant that we may not carry, or used pre-release art to represent a title, or listed things we don’t buy at all. Or they may get a few from next week in there, OR catch up with ones they missed last week – so the covers you see here may not be the ones you see on our shelf this week. Our list is usually late enough that it reflects only what we got,  but not late enough to eliminate sellouts that might have happened by the time you see this. Also, we reserve the right to make mistakes and forget to list things, or forget to delete them when they don’t show up like we thought they would.
