Hey, Folks!

 

Just a quick note this week as there is frankly not much to talk about at the store. I would like to send out tons of hugs and kisses to all of you as I finally got to see the new Doctor Strange movie and not only did I love the movie, but I was extremely pleased that not one of you spoiled a single blessed thing! Honestly, I think I was maybe more floored by the fact that I encountered no spoilers then the actual events of the movie which were incredibly thrilling. I know that there are some naysayers, but any film that is the result of an MCU film making sweet, sweet love to the Evil Dead movies is quite alright with me.

 

I also wanted to let everyone know that if you are thinking that current release schedules are a bit…off that you are not losing your minds. I know I’ve had this discussion with a few of you but I do want to let everyone know that many companies publishing schedules are going a bit pear-shaped these days (particularly Marvel Comics) due to our old friends, Supply Chain Issues and Paper Shortages. I am trying to keep on top of the schedule changes, but it is proving nearly impossible as things are fluid and changing on a week to week basis. Always feel free to ask when you are in the store if you have any scheduling questions.

 

Brian and I (well, mostly Brian) are getting closer to catching up with our back issue restock that was put on hold while preparing for FCBD. I will continue to publish Facebook posts regarding higher priced  books as well as keys, but please be aware that we have a ton of new back issues from D.C.’s New 52 as well as some X-Titles. The Dollar Boxes have been similarly “restocked” so make sure you take the time to go for a nice, comfortable dive into them! We still have a couple of collections to go through and I still have a ton of stuff to retrieve from deep storage so stayed tuned!

 

That’s it for me, Folks! Have a great weekend and enjoy the warmer weather…😊
