Countdown to the Strangest Christmas We’ve ever had on Wednesday, December 23rd, 2020

We have two diseases attacking our nation. If the biological one doesn’t get us, the moral one will. Seriously, the Army should move into Georgia and Pennsylvania and take over the voting machines? It’s one thing for a delusional mind to come with such an idea, but what kind of person hears that and says, “Yeah. That’s what the founders had in mind. That’s a good idea. Run with that one. Who needs that pesky constitution, – I’ve got the Second Amendment on my side!” If that were the ONLY Un-american Idea to come out of the current administration, we’d be lucky. No clue and no soul.

Kind of a small week for comics, but a bunch of Transformers and Star Wars figures, and a zillion Pops of course.

Hours: Christmas Eve 11-7, Christmas Day Noon-4 (no big “sale” or special pricing to draw a big crowd). Rest of the year, 11-7 Sat, 11-6 Sun-Tue, 11-7 Wed-Sat and so on. Heppy New Year!

And Vaccines! It’s over, finally. Not. Not even close. Vaccines are going in to a tiny number of arms, protecting those arms, but the rest of us are still at risk. California is having the worst week yet, again. Please be careful out there and in here. Wear a mask everywhere. Keep your distance and try to be an “efficient” shopper, to keep the overall store population down minute to minute. Do Bob a favor, and don’t flood the zone. Masks are not perfect prevention. Limit your time and numbers.

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. 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 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.
