Hello, all--

I’m afraid if I actually type this a huge crack will open on Broad Street and the block will sink into the Earth, but: YOU CAN PARK IN FRONT OF THE STORE RIGHT NOW! Construction has been completed. For now. Who knows what this crazy city will throw at us next?

FREE COMIC BOOK DAY is on SATURDAY, MAY 7! 10-7! There are some truly amazing and relevant free comics this year! And we’ll be running all our normal sales! It’s going to be huge, make plans to attend!

So I revealed that Ed Pokoj won our DRAW MONTHLY! BLACK BOLT contest last week… but I didn’t show you the image nor did I reveal who Ed selected as the next DRAW MONTHLY! character. GAZE UPON ED’S WORKS IN WONDER!EdBlackBolt.jpg
And the next DRAW MONTHLY! Character will be… SPACEBOY from Gerard Way and Gabriel Ba’s seminal classic UMBRELLA ACADEMY! If you haven’t read it, you owe it to yourself to do so. You deserve good things, dammit!

LAST CALL! Subscribers: if you want it, add it! If you decide you don’t want it or don’t like it, remove it! Better safe than sorry!
MAE (Dark Horse) Gene Ha is one of the all-time greats, and him writing and drawing a new sci-fi fantasy series is cause for celebration!
FUTURE QUEST (DC) One of the year’s most anticipated titles! Jeff Parker and Evan ‘Doc’ Shaner bring together Space Ghost, the Herculoids, Johnny Quest and more! So much more! In a time-traveling adventure sure to blow our collective minds!
ARCHANGEL (IDW) Sci-fi superstar William Gibson comes to comics! Global politics and ecological terror and Butch Guice! Looks good.
THE BIGGEST BANG (IDW) Sequel to the recent BIGGER BANG series.
BRUTAL NATURE (IDW) A collection of masks transforms a man into innumerable beasts and monsters! With art by Ariel Olivetti.
DEADPOOL: LAST DAY OF MAGIC (Marvel) Tying into the Dr Strange-led event!
POWER RANGERS: PINK (Boom!) Uhhh, I guess this is about the Pink Power Ranger? I know, I’m pretty smart.
