Speaking of cards, is the any business in non-game trading cards these days?
You just reminded me that my local comic place as a kid was much more of a card than comic shop, and It was called Card Crazy.

Are there, like 2016 Fleer X-Men cards?

e: Probably not if they went out of business ten years ago.

Are you sacrificing depth in the new one? It doesn't look as deep.
If thats not a problem, go for it. You can't hang a Superman beanie on the old one!

Sorry about the shop, Rhyno. How did you keep your cool behind the counter?

Why would you keep pulling books for 3 months?

I'm sure that's from a bunch of people and the timeframe is just arbitrary.

e: Or it's how many months worth of unpickedup comics it took to get over four digits.

This could be a good spot to post FCBD experiences.

Ours was yesterday. Nothing too special seemed to be going on, so I just grabbed the allowed two free issues and left. I Hate Image is amazing, BTW.

I'm guessing he doesn't order to sell out, so that means sales are up and ordering more next time.

Well, they're pretty much doing their own Rebirth in the fall.
Marvel Legacy is very blatant, but I hope it works. If there's an actual equilibrium with both sides selling healthy piles o' comics, it's only good.

edit: And if they're both successful and content enough, hows about another DC/Marv crossover? :)

For the last two weeks Marvel have been selling collections on Comixology for .99c on the day of release.

Has anyone been seeing store owners starting to get super pissed at this?
