For Those Who Are About to ComiCon – Wednesday, July 19th, 2023

I’m a day late, and so the headline is in the proper tense for about an hour. SDCC will begin in a minute, and I’m far away, geographically, and mentally. I have this list of new arrivals at Fantasy, like I have for about 8 years now, but that’s the only connection I have to “What’s New”. And I didn’t have the chance to wish well for our few intrepid local friends who make the trek faithfully every year. Good Luck K&K, and Maryanne!

You may be surprised to learn that DC has MORE Knight Terrors! And a few other comics. Marvel has #1’s for Blade and Moonknight and Star Wars ROJ Rebellion, and some other comics. We may have another ordering or shipping glitch, as there may be several other pub’s offerings that may have been delayed. Haven’t had the chance to ask what might have happened. Will update on FB

We are still encouraging and welcoming masks, but not requiring them. You are only in our enclosed space for minutes, but Bob is there all day. We still need to be careful, people. Please tell Bob you appreciate how the store looks and feels. And help us keep them in order.

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.

Wednesday is still New Comic Day, no matter what you read on the internets. Watch this space and our Facebook page for the latest news about the rest of the month, season, year, millennium, 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.
