December Already? – Wednesday, December 1st, 2021

Avengers #50 is out with a legacy number of 750. Planned? Conspiracy? Hawkeye, X-Men and X-Force from a week or two ago are STILL lost in the ether, but we are reasonably assured that they are being packed for us NOW, for delivery next week. DC is mostly annuals. Remember when annuals were in the summer? Conspiracy? That’s all I’ve got. I DID do a gross Pop Re-stock. By that I mean 24 six-packs worth, so they are in pretty good order and the shelves are filled, at least until 11:30 Thursday, when the Pops Reorganizer (s) shows up with their hands of chaos. What is so flipping hard about picking up a Pop to see what is behind it (almost 100% THE SAME POP, when I leave Wednesday night) and PUTTING IT BACK IN THE SAME PLACE????

If it has been more than 2 weeks since you’ve been in,  we moved This Week’s Marvels. They are on the opposite wall, in front of the last few week’s Marvels, which have been there for months. Just turn and go between or around the A-Frame shelves, and look for the red “This Week” cards. So far, we like it. Let us know what you think. And for the first time, our list also has the Marvels separated out after the first alphabet.

I’m having trouble finding good images in any kind of normal layout. 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.

We are enforcing a Mask Rule. We are concerned and frankly afraid of the Desantis Variant’s effectiveness and apparent success in younger people and children. So, please, take one for team America and get a vaccine.

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. 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.
