Hello, all!

First off, it looks like whatever issues our new distributor for DC Comics, UCS, had getting our product to us last week has been resolved. I'll fully unclench when the stuff shows up on time, but as of right now things are where they're supposed to be.

Secondly, a reminder: masks are a REQUIREMENT for entry into the shop. No exceptions. Most folks coming in understand this and are happy to help keep our space low-risk. At this point I don't know what else to say to the few that want to fight it. Other than, "go somewhere else."

Thirdly, we've been buying some great collections of older comics lately! If you've got some runs you're trying to complete, or want to jump into grabbing some sweet first appearances, we can help. Just in this week, first appearances of Electro, Mysterio and Mary Jane in early Amazing Spider-Man issues! If you've got stuff you might be ready to part with, shoot us an email or call-- if you've got Silver/Bronze Age stuff, or first appearances, we're probably interested!

LAST CALL! These are the debuting titles we're spotlighting for your perusal... our orders lock on them Monday, so let us know before the end of the day then if you'd like to add any to your sub lists! For the whole list of everything non-DC we're locking, take a look HERE. And for DC stuff, let's try THIS. Some of this stuff, like the toys, orders have already locked on. But for single issue comics it's a pretty good guide. 
ALIEN: ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY (Dark Horse, Mini, $3.99, shipping 8/5/20) This'll be a must for all the Alien fans out there. And all the variant covers will be by Walt Simonson! 
FIREPOWER (Image, Ongoing, $3.99, shipping 8/5/20) Some of you might be thinking, "now wait a minute, didn't this just come out? WHAT GIVES?" And yes-- the prequel GN and FCBD issue have arrived and are awesome. This takes up from there... I think there's some story overlap with the FCBD issue, but #2 drops the same week and I'd love to know how many to order for people who want to continue. 
EMPYRE HANDBOOK (Marvel, One-shot, $4.99, shipping 8/5/20) I'm never sure how many of this kind of thing to order. I love stuff like this, that lays out all the characters and alien races and whatnot in a graphically pleasing format. Tell me if you want one! 
LORD OF EMPYRE: CELESTIAL MESSIAH (Marvel, One-shot, $4.99, shipping 8/5/20) The son of Mantis and Swordsman is all grown up and looks like he wants to stab someone!
BAD MOTHER (AWA, Mini, $3.99, shipping 8/5/20) A bored soccer mom's daughter goes missing and the quest to find her unleashes her inner badass. Plus, the tagline "Baking Bad" is pretty funny. 
SEVEN SECRETS (Boom!, Ongoing, $3.99, shipping 8/5/20) This one's gonna be big. Tom Taylor (DCeased, Suicide Squad, Wolverine) unleashes his first creator owned comic in the world! An ancient order tasked with guarding a world altering power is attacked! Their newest member goes on a quest for truth, as you do when this kinda thing happens.
HORIZON ZERO (Titan, Mini, $3.99, shipping 8/5/20) Based on the game!
DEATH METAL: LEGENDS OF THE DARK KNIGHTS (DC, One-shot, $5.99, shipping 8/4/20) A bunch of short stories featuring various Baddies and Beasties from the Death Metal mini!
DREAMING: WAKING HOURS (DC, Mini, $3.99, shipping 8/4/20) G Willow Wilson jumps into the Dreaming to write about nightmares!
