Time Stopped for This Week’s Comics for 24 hours – Wednesday, January 5th, 2022

In the sense that they stopped moving across country, as far as we could tell. Kind of a quantum quandary. If we can’t see them, do they still exist? But first, we are talking about everything except DC’s which have been handled by Lunar Distributors since June of 2020, and handled by UPS. They were right on time. For everything else on the weekly schedule, we had a freight problem, but it’s already fixed. and everything is on the shelves by 11 Thursday. The shipment “disappeared” in the sense that the trucking company hired by Diamond to get them into our Neighborhood sometime Monday, and out for delivery Tuesday did not know where they were Monday, and, yes, they weren’t delivered Tuesday as they have been for years. We were told Wednesday morning, that they had been “found” and were delivered late that afternoon. If this had happened last week, when Marvel’s new Timeless title showed, it would have been weird.

That’s enough exposition. The list is below.

If it has been a while since you’ve been in,  we moved This Week’s Marvels. They are on the wall opposite from the other new comics you were used to finding, on the white wooden shelf, behind you, 180 degrees, the wall that’s parallel to the red racks where your new comics USED to be,  and STILL ARE, just without the Marvels, which are on the opposite wall, on the first two rows above waist height, in front of the last few week’s Marvels, which have been there for a year. 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 now, our list also has the Marvels separated out after all  the other comics.

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.

Except for TODAY, Wednesday is Normally 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.
