Random Market Share Information

My first customer today asked me how Marvel sales compared to DC sales for me.  So, for the first time ever, I ran a sales report based by Publisher.  And here are the results, Year-To-Date: Marvel – 25.61% DC – 24.22% Not really that big of a difference.  Here are some other notables: Archie – […]

More Reviews: Uncanny X-Men, X-Men, Daken

      Uncanny X-Men 534 Written by Matt Fraction and Kieron Gillen Penciled by Greg Land and Paul Renaud I’ve always appreciated books that feature two stories at once.  Matt Fraction’s latest Uncanny X-Men arc, “Quarantine,” does just that.  Both stories, the H1-X1 virus and the Emma/Shaw problem, conclude in issue 534. Aside from […]

Reviews: FF, New Mutants, X-Force

Opening a little late today

My wife is headed out of town and I have to get my son from kindergarten, so I won’t be opening up until 12:00 today.  Sorry for any inconvenience, but they’d get mad if I just left him there.

St. Patrick’s Day Sale

Today, Everybody’s Irish!  Anything Green – 25% Off!  Just convince me it is green and you get it.  Now I don’t mean flipping through and finding a random panel that has green in it.  But if it has green in the title, or the main character or villain has a green costume.
