Welcome 2025! – Wednesday, January 1st, 2025
New Year’s Day (today, Wednesday) will NOT be a “New Comic Day”. But, Bob has told me that the Diamond shipping snafu has cleared up enough to get everything there in time for Thursday opening. Just to keep things rational, Bob will be holding DC’s until then, so our list should be good on Thursday at 11.
Marvel and DC look normal, but there are only about 10 comics from the other guys, so it looks like Diamond shortened up the list in favor of timeliness.
Happy holidays, folks.
And only three short weeks until Day One .
Thanks to League Of Comic Geeks for this week’s images, which are in some unusual, non-alphabetical order, and 6 across. Use the list, and MAYBE the pictures will be useful. Again, I do not have time to sort the images into publisher groups.
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.
