Fresh Air on the Left Coast but the Smell of Fear and Loathing from the Right on Wednesday, October 14th, 2020

We can breathe again. For the moment.  But we still need to step back. Now we are holding our breath for the future of America.

Today’s Highlights: Marvel has Amazing Spider-Man #50, Image had Commanders in Crisis #1, Dynamite has Die!namite #1, whatever that is, and DC  has Detective and Dark Nights Death Metal #4. Lots more, too.

For me, at least one week more of not  lifting boxes. Wednesday is STILL New Comic Day, no matter what you read on the internets. We can’t clear the new rack to just have 10 DC’s  surrounded by empty space.  We do it once, Wednesday morning. And now again whenever the heck FedEx decides to deliver. Ask Bob.

Free Comic Book Day – ‘s of Summer is officially over,  but we still have most of them, so you might be able to pick up something you missed  – check out our good ol’ Free Comic Book Day page. We encourage everyone to be careful, make your trip to our store quick and efficient, and try to come in to shop in smaller groups, and reduce your own exposure to ALL public places indoors, including ours. Bob is open, bring your mask, keep your distance, and help keep Bob healthy. If you like, you can browse the list and make an order to [email protected] for a quicker pick up. It might also help to put in a time window when you would be in the neighborhood, to give Bob a chance to get them together, and include a phone number for good measure.

Please wear a mask!

Watch this space and our Facebook page for latest news about the rest of the month, season, year, millenium, 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 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.

Thanks to Comics on the Green for this week’s images, which include many of the comics and a few of the books and other items we received today, and may have pics of things we didn’t and/or won’t get. Use the list, and maybe the picture.
